    Off to get the pork chops out of the freezer.  OH has declared they will be had with vegetables but no potatoes/rice/starchy anything.   Fine by me!

    I cooked a casserole yesterday so we will have that with rice today. I have some mushrooms and a pepper that need using so they can go in the rice with some garlic.

    @sarahj1986 hope things are now improving for you.

    I'm finishing off the veggie chilli with some LO rice tonight. 

    Does anyone else get quite excited when something is used up and you can see what is next on the use up list?
    Thank you xx

    Today is my daughters birthday so I’m doing sausages, sweet potatoes (orange potatoes as she says) then carrots, cauliflower left over and peas. Covered in gravy. She loves sausages, sweet potato and peas plus she loves gravy so a winner. Then we have chocolate birthday cake after

    Yet another quick meal tonight. I grilled some frozen breadcrumbed soya nuggets and we had them with a veg curry (used a jar of Tesco's Plant Revolution korma sauce) and brown basmati rice. Veggies were celery, sweet pepper, courgette, carrot, kidney beans and sweet potato. Home-made sultana cake and a coffee later.
  • I found some YS pork loin steaks in the freezer, so had them with air fryer roasties and spinach. We've run out of gravy so I made a mushroom sauce using a tin of mushrooms that had been lurking in the cupboard for ages. I don't usually like tinned mushrooms (so not quite sure why I even had them) but they were fabulous in the sauce so that was a nice surprise.

    We had a really delicious roast beef dinner tonight, with the beef joint which was part of the ‘meal deal’ from the local butcher. There’s enough left over to make two more meals I think, so tomorrow we’ll be having some kind of spicy beef and red pepper tortilla thing, and then I’ll mince up the remaining beef to add to a mac’n'cheese. Or something.
