Hi everyone, 2nite I made chicken breast in the airfryer, some oil salt Pepper parsley in a bit of tin foil, 20 mins at 180c brushed with piri sauce 5 mins before the end. Basmati rice, green beans, broccoli and cauliflower. Very filling and tasty. And quick. Wish I had taken a pic. Amateur hour. Lol.2

@BlueJ94 I saw a lady on Instagram who does low cost lunch prep. beatthebudget I believe is the name.
Noticed yesterday a dish using rice noodles and chicken mince, with peppers and courgettes. I was so impressed that I am making it for my daughter. There may be some good ideas on there?
Tonight husband and daughter had chicken curry, with a side of lentil dahl. I had dahl with a hard boiled egg in it. All with rice.3 -

The last of the turkey joint from the freezer.
Made turkey wraps with cranberry mayo and stuffing with roasted mini potatoes
Today the other portion is slow cooking as a chinese curry with mini onions

I'm feeling very pleased with myself for making a veggie bolognese with lentils and using up some fresh pasta I found languishing in the fridge as well as an end of parmesan and some leftover roasted cabbage followed by the last apple with the end of a jar of peanut butter. There's enough bolognese for tomorrow too if I haven't frozen solid overnight!5
