Missies Food Week Menu Plan

Missie Cindz Sheffield Food Week Plan

Personally food has always played a big part in my life. It’s simple – I love food and it makes me happy! Many of you who follow me on Twitter will already know how I love to hog the Sheffield food limelight, so to take part in all the Sheffield Food Fest’ excitement (4th – 10th July), I wanted to set myself a Food Challenge which would see me eating my way through to a size SHEFFIELD…for the whole week! – The ‘Missie’s Sheffield Food Week’ Challenge. A week where I’ll be eating and drinking a huge range of Sheffield related produce, ranging from making my own foods at home (breakfast and dinner) using Sheffield-grown produce and also eating and drinking homemade Sheffield goodness made by our talented local foodies! (see the full list of food participants below).

Sheffield has a fabulous food scene and I’d like to share it to others in my own ‘Missie Cindz’ way! During my Challenge (4th – 10th July) I’m going to Blog about my experiences for each meal. This Challenge will be fun, very interesting and I hope some of you will participate with me? or please follow my Sheffield Food Challenge on Twitter, Facebook and here, my Food Blog.

What’s the Plan?
Seven days x three meals plus 1 – 2 snacks and treats per day so that’s twenty one different ‘Sheffield’ meals (and also alot of Sheffield snacking!). Join in, spread the word and start thinking about what you will eat and where and who you will get it from…The Menu Plan is now available as a PDF download for you to read (a warning though, it’s very Sheffield and tasty!).

A big thank you to all these Sheffield food producers, chefs, bakers, butchers and farmers who have generously donated their foods to make my Food Challenge possible! – and what a delicious treat Missie Cindz’s followers and fans are in for too…
