  • Lebanese green split pea soup. First time I've made it and I think it's going to become a regular, it was so tasty and filling!

    Sounds yummy could I have the recipe?

    I’m finishing the pasta bake from yesterday as I’m on my own tonight! Plus a nice strong cuppa! :coffee:

  • Lebanese green split pea soup

    Sounds interesting.... do you have a recipe?

    Yesterday had some homemade coronation chicken sandwiches as I needed to use up some chicken and homemade curry powder.

    Yep, I used this one: https://yupitsvegan.com/lebanese-green-split-pea-soup/ Can heartily recommend it!
  • Family coming for lunch and to help board out the loft, kids will have pizza and smilies with garlic bread and we've got some posh butchers sausages to have as hot dogs. Chocolate sponge made for dessert and scones to have with a cuppa later on.

    Supper tonight will be whatever needs using up in the fridge and a cup of coffee.
  • Breakfast was porridge made with rolled oats (75p/kilo) and coconut/rice milk (9p/litre from reduced section). Dinner will be a vegetable stew with carrots (10p per bag), cabbage (10p per bag), celery (10p for several sticks) and a couple of small onions from the cupboard (5p per bag a few weeks ago) with half a stock cube thrown in. Will probably freeze some of the stew for another day.

  • We had a pretty mild bean chilli that's been in the slow cooker all day. It was nowhere near spicy enough for me, too spicy for my son and just right for my daughter. Clearly we're just the Goldilocks of chilli. Anyway, I had mine with salad, they had theirs with wholegrain rice.
  • Feeling like the need for some comfort food but resisted the urge to pig out on hot buttered toast.
    Made a risotto with all of the (mainly) leafy green vegetables that needed using up and a quantity of homemade chicken stock.
  • Omelettes tonight - probably cheese and herb. I think I've got some jacket potatoes in the freezer, but if not, I'll try and get some nice reduced to clear bread

    Nothing prepared! Haven’t done the weekly food shop!
    However all this talk of cauliflower cheese is making me crave! So im thinking that tonight will be an oven tea, tomorrow when I am in town cauli will be purchased and il have that with slow cooked gammon and il do some baked potatoes. Lunch today will be a ham sandwich – the rest of the week who knows! Il get inspiration from here no doubt
