    Quick meal of stir-fried veg and chickpeas, a jar of korma sauce, brown rice and soya nuggets. DH had sultana cake later.

    Reheated last nights LO chippy chips in the air fryer with a few quorn nuggets - or rather a bowl of beige :D but hit the spot. 

    Bit cross as was making a chicken casserole in the oven and watching a film, misjudged the cooking time and it's now a pan of overcooked veg. I could turn it to soup, except I'm not a soup fan. Nearly binned the whole lot.

    Thanks all, I’m not a fan of shopping so just trying to look at the best way to minimise spending both time and money doing it.

    Sesame chicken and rice here tonight, GS was ‘helping’ I now have to clean up a million sesame seeds 😬

    Bowl of the overcooked casserole from last night with some LO rice chucked in and a piece of stuffing LO from xmas which was liberated from the freezer. 
    Casserole actually tastes quite nice it's just unfortunate it rather looks like the left overs from when i make stock. 😬

    Went to M7S to check out the 14th Feb special but we couldn't really get excited about it.  It would have been a case of buying stuff to get the £20 deal but not eating everything tonight.  So OH sensibly suggested we put it all back and just get their KFC instead.  We've chips so didn't need much else there - though he wandered off just when the cashier was getting everything scanned through - she kept asking if I thought he was coming back or if he was in the chocolate aisle!! 

    Headed off to Lidl where he insisted on a major league shop (£50!!!?!!! and that didn't include any alcohol!!!!)  Lots of salad stuff purchased to go with the chicken tonight plus more desserts than any 2 people need (especially when trying to lose weight)
