Mich menu plan around what you have :)

Did that this week, with the tomato tart tatin - Pastry from the freezer and toms from the garden. Sweet and sour chicken - chicken from the freezer and a jar of S&S sauce from the pantry jazzed up. Think the down fall is cooking for the BBQ for Australia Day.  :(

Just a few dollars over my $150 budget this week (all inclusive - cat food, toiletries) - and we had guests half the week so lots to stock up on. So finally heading in the right direction again.

Oh, and it even included lots of extra sugar for plum jam after unexpectedly bringing home loads of plums from mum's :)
