    Are those munchies on top of the cheesecake @BlueJ94?  If so I will fight you for a piece 😂

    Tonight we're having BBQ pulled pork from the freezer on a jacket potato and some coleslaw.  Which reminds me that I need to get DH to put the potatoes on before I get home from work.

    We had some leftover tomato, lentil, and butternut squash soup.
    I got a bit of smoked haddock out of the freezer and made a colourful kedgeree with a little rice, lots of green vegetables, some red pepper and scrambled eggs, all done in the microwave.

    Had a proper roast dinner last night but on the simple(ish) side.  Roast beef coated in mustard and pepper, roasted potato and yorkshires (thanks for both Aunt Bessie!) and peas.  OH, as usual, made himself some gravy.  Discovered we have toooo much gravy in the cupboard as I bought a beef bisto when I got the roast not realising we already had some.  Might take the new one to the food bank just to make space.

    Using up the bits from the fridge night tonight.

    Fried some onion, potatoes, bacon, and chicken sausage, then chucked in some stock and a splash of white wine and added the cabbage and peas to finish off.

    I was a bit dubious, but with some garlic and herbs it was much more edible than I expected.
    All shall be well, and all shall be well, and all manner of things shall be well.

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.

    There was some cheese left so I made pasta in cheese sauce with new potatoes, and steamed carrots, runner beans, broccoli, cauliflower, courgette and cabbage. Some of the vegetables needed using up so I cooked extra to reheat tomorrow. 

    I made a Spanish omelette with the left over vegetables.

    We've been pigging it (literally) with the meat recently so thought we should take it all down a notch.  So I stopped at Lidl and got some passata, a courgette and some prawns.  Knowing that at home I've got an onion, peppers, basil and pasta.  Asked him who thinks he should be obeyed whether he wanted prawns with his pasta or just veg.  His response was "well if it's with prawns I'll have to cook so why don't you do a sauce with the veg."
