    schnitzel, potatoes and roasted veg.  having fun working around the fact that our big oven no longer works but hoping (x x x everything crossed x x x) that the chap coming to look at our kitchen on Monday will say that they can start doing the total refit really really really soon.

    Daughter and I are having quorn bolognese pasta bake, husband is having a roast dinner. It's all plated up waiting to be zapped. Lazy I know, but I love, getting it all ready, tidying up, having a bath and then into my pjs before eating my dinner and all I need to do afterwards is put my plate in the dishwasher.
    I have also made a big pan of soup and some bread for lunches over the next couple of days.

     In laws have also got a plated up roast dinner that they will have tomorrow.

    Baked potatoes with the garlic sauce and vegetable salad. Got the recipes from a betterme healthy coaching https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-body/news/betterme-review-this-holistic-wellness-approach-can-change-your-life/ and really enjoying new tastes for me. I also started to exercise every single morning, which gives me a lot of energy for the whole day.

    Also on a mission to clear out the fridge freezer....not just for Christmas but also to aid the impending kitchen makeover.  

    Tonight is lovely big pork chops complete with kidneys - they'll go on the bbq.  There's some frozen Lidl potato cakes (potato with reblochon or broccoli - will have to check which we have) and there will also be some veg - corn is likely and yorkshires.  He'll want gravy of course.

    Jacket potatoes, salad and leftover chicken from yesterday. I had cottage cheese with mine. Not a favourite but it needed eating.

    I'm on a clear a shelf in the larder mission so threw some red lentils into my slow cooker so that it would make me a dal while I was at my allotment, when I got back I added some soya mince and spinach to the mixture and ate it with cous cous.
