    Hello!

    Yesterday's food
    B - 2x crispbreads with lumps of chicken
    L - last of chicken korma on sqashed cauli
    D - Omlet with chicken, cheese, mushrooms, chillis, spring onion and topped with slivers of tomato. Also some coleslaw mixed with full fat mayo to make it creamier.

    Today's food
    B - 2x crispbreads with remains of omlet
    L - surprise beef mince curry on sqashed cauli (didn't know what it was when I took it out of freezer as was all frosted up, only lunch left so just packed it :) was v nice)
    D - will be chicken drumsticks and thighs (about 3 in total) with green beans and coleslaw as above.

    Happy weekend all! Hope it's a good one for you :j

    I had a lovely dinner tonight.......and I didn't cook it. :D

    I have no idea how many carbs it would have been but it couldn't have been too bad I think.

    Chicken breast stuffed with a little mascarpone & little garlic (was supposed to be philidelphia but none left) and wrapped in bacon, done in tinfoil in oven. Few mushrooms dry pan fried with a little garlic, couple of tiny baby toms, a few chopped walnuts and some spinach and then the chicken slapped on top. Little mayo at the side.

    Was very nice and not too carby I think?

    Can't be many carbs and it sounds delish! Think that's what we all should aspire to :) Wondergirl! Glad you getting right into it - and getting it cooked for you! You must be magical, my friend :beer::rotfl::beer:

    Kinda an inspiration to us all! You seem to have everything necessary going on. :j

    Would personally take a down shift on that if I had to crawl through attics etc. Think I'd cook it miself if some one else would do the hard stuff :rotfl:

    SOOO glad you're back! sweets n mazz are great (well, here all the time for one :rotfl: and wonderful people to boot :j) but you do inject a certain je ne sais qua to our little discussions, which is nice. (I really love them and hope they don't bash me up for that, there)

    Anyway, I want your chicken!

    Tis on the recipe list under ''Alias' chicken amazingness'' Sure to be a hit! Cheers hun :)

    Aw bless. Were you worried you would make it feel undesirable or unworthy if you refused?

    :rotfl:

    :rotfl:nothing to do with the bananas feelings at all :rotfl: I bought the uneaten half home so some one can fulfill its potential.

    Bless you for your kind words, I can't afford much in the way of payment. Would a chicken drumstick suffice? :D

    *big kiss*

    are you all cooking for yourselves, or do you have family/oh's to cater for? It bugs me cooking more than one meal so I try and cook something that I can adjust to suit us all.
