WEEK 1 Make up an extra 1lb / 450g g of ground lamb when you make Shepherd's Pie Recipe. Don't cover this portion with mashed potato. Use it the next night for a delicious Empanada Recipe recipe.

Instead of using ground lamb for the Shepherd's Pie, you can use ground beef.Make up a double batch of Tomato Pasta Sauce Recipe and you can use the leftovers for Oven Baked Fish with Fresh Tomato Sauce and Cheese.WEEK 2 Roast two Oven Baked Whole Chickens with BBQ Rub. Use the leftover chickens for Chicken Pasta Bake with Pesto Sauce and Parmesan Crust or any of our other Quick Easy Chicken Recipes.
