    :rotfl: I just thought you were living dangerously and liked your pork pink still :rotfl:

    OH has just announced he'll do his own dinner when he gets in tomorrow (not uncommon - thought we were a bit odd until i joined this thread and realised lots of couples have diff meals - I guess there's a stage you get past pretending to both like the same foods all the time :D) so I am going to liberate a steak from the freezer. Just torn about whether to try the no carb route and just have veg with it, or have mushroom risotto. I feel I should go no carb....except although I eat a lot of carbs, I don't really have issue with them and will be going out to a 2hr sports class anyway.

  • Lunch today will be home made baked bean soup from the store cupboard and supper tonight will be sweet and sour pork to use up the last of the YS joint I cooked on Sunday served with a vegetable stir fry and basmati rice, Pudding if we want it will be blueberry fool to use up half a can of light custard and some fresh blueberries and as always a cup of black coffee to finish off with.

    Lunch will be home made turkey soup and the evening meal will be gammon, potatoes, parsley sauce, broad beans and carrots. We have a lot of home grown frozen veg to eat, and the gammon joint is simmering away in the slow cooker as I type this :-)
  • Lunch today will be a chicken salad wrap. Tonight I'm cooking Hairy Bikers Piri piri chicken:

    Just had very disappointing rump steak from Lidl - good job it was YS but will prob make the other one into something slow cooked. This one was tough and gristly. Still the cat enjoyed the left overs.
    Had it with some sprouts (bit past their best in the freezer but did the job) and some pan cooked spinach and chestnuts. Did a Worcester sauce and port reduction as a sauce too (posh for, sloshed a bit of both into the frying pan and heated while I put the rest out then poured over said dinner)
