Happy anniversary Jazee and Mr Jazee!
lunch today will be soup and we'll have that out as we're going to see a Heath Robinson drawing exhibition at one of the local National Trust properties this morning. They have a nice restaurant so it will be a treat.
Supper tonight will be the other half of the Sag Paneer I made yesterday (was delicious too) with some dahl and a naan bread, fresh fruit and plain skyr for pud and a cup of coffee.0 -
Inspired by Mr T's 3 for £1.00 veg offer, I've got a pork joint out of the freezer and will do a dinner which will include stuffing, roast potatoes, white cabbage, carrots and a couple of other veg (or I have sprouts and cauliflower in the freezer).
I'll probably pick up extra carrots & parsnip to boil, mash and freeze.0 -
thankyou for dumpling advice, in the end I peeled spuds for them to boil.
tonight we have faggots from the butchers in Herefordshire (my sister brought them down with her) with mash, carrots, peas and onion gravy.
.tomorrow I was going to make flamingo eggs with crusty bread but now i'm thinking or either whitebait or spiced mackerel fillets with chips and peas0 -

Oooer, I never knew about that. When did that start?
We are having a roast tonight as well. Stuffed chicken breast with roasted carrots, parsnips and spuds and sprouts for those that do - I don't0 -

So - carrots, white cabbage and broccoli.
I also picked up 2 x 2.5kg bags of Desiree potatoes reduced from £2.00 to 88p - "best for creamy mash" so that's my job for this afternoon. Had to do a mental check if I'd got room in my freezer.0 -

I've made a huge vat of chilli con carne (with added dark chocolate melted into it, yum!) so that's what we'll be having tonight.
I have one solitary (but very large) cooking apple left over from making a tarte tatin earlier in the week so will think of something for pud to use that up. It's large enough to feed the two of us if I bake it with sultanas, brown sugar and butter, maybe some other stuff thrown in (I am thinking chopped dried apricots, some ground almonds and a good glug of brandy maybe).0 -

Ill not bother then, don't like broccoli nor white cabbage and the carrots will no doubt start getting black if I buy 3 bags0
