I use lettuce lots for wraps, it obviously taste nothing like a wrap, but it holds it altogether, and saves so many points x my fave lunch, tuna, sweet corn, mayo in a lettuce wrap x yummy. Oh and use a lettuce leaf instead of a bread roll for burgers!! Ok I am sounding nuts now x but 4pp is 4pp! X

Why do the weekends go so fast!!! Is it really Sunday already ?? X I love the weekends family all in the house.
Breakfast/lunch
Bagel 6pp crispy bacon 3pp scrambled egg 4pp

Massive breakfast but it was combined with lunch as it was a late one.

Dinner at friends
Roast beef dinner pointed it at 20pp??? I had 2 small potatoes, not sure how much beef (hate not knowing) I know the gravy was real made with fat!! I had such a small amount. It was yummy maybe I should point at 25 to make sure x I refused apple crumble and custard for desert, but I had 10 pp worth of wine x

So 48 pp had to use 8 weeklies x but a very enjoyable day x

I think 20pp is realistic, doesn't sound as though your portion was excessive by any means. Well Done on refusing Apple Crumble and Custard, that's a personal favourite of mine! Any plans for rest of your Weeklies? X

 

[everton04]

My favourite as well well done on resisting
