    I slow roasted a leg of lamb and served it with cauliflower cheese, peas and orange-glazed carrots. Raspberry Eton Mess for pud.

    I also made a pan of butternut squash, chilli and coconut soup for work lunches this week.
  • I wanted a roast but couldn't be bothered with all the faff. So Aunt Bessies roasties and a Tesco beef brisket in gravy joint were bunged in the oven. And frozen yorkies of course.

    Afters was a packet of crumble mix on top of a tin of peaches....without the juice obviously. Served with a tin of custard.
  • Tonight we had a slow cooked leg af lamb, with carrots, an onion, swede, parsnip and baby leeks in a minted gray .... made a few roast potatoes to go with it.

    Had a sticky toffee for desert, but we were to full, so will have that another day.

    Husband had a hangover today so didn't bother putting in much effort on the Sunday roast, I cooked a chicken, pimped up some stuffing with bacon lardons and red onion. Roasted some potatoes and a few roast veg, carrots, shallots, parsnips and courgette. It all did it's thing in the oven whilst the football was on.

    I did make myself a nut roast, I had some vogel bread left from last week so made this into breadcrumbs, added, grated cheese, whizzed up some nuts, spring onions and sundried tomatoes, mixed in some beaten eggs and baked it in a roasting tin. It made ten portions, I had one with my dinner, I will have one tomorrow lunchtime with salad and froze the rest.
  • Soup and the rest of some sausages I cooked a couple of days ago for lunch today and supper will be potato gnocchi in a home made tomato sauce with grated parmesan cheese and possibly some home made garlic bread if HWK is extra hungry. 0% fat yoghurt and some blueberries for pudding and our usual black coffee. It's always de'caf as we get the de'caf pods for the nespresso machine.
