What we actually eat in a week using our own beef as a family of four
As a very busy family of four, who try to avoid too much UPF and are definitely an 'ingredients household', here's what might eat on each day in a typical week.

Spanish-Style Brisket
All credit to Lakeland for the recipe. We're in the midst of the half term juggle this week, where we're trying to juggle childcare, the farm, our other businesses, a house renovation and making sure everyone is fed and watered.
