    Quorn frankfurters, skin on mash, beans and a mini corn on the cob.

    Eating lots out of the freezer this week to maximise the last of our grocery budget before May starts.

    Tonight we had roast chicken with spring greens, broad beans and dauphinoise potatoes (which were lovely but I think I put a bit too much garlic in them .... I hope I can get rid of the taste before work tomorrow!)

    I've stripped the chicken carcass and turned it into stock for this week's soups (a pan of sweet potato, carrot, potato, onion and chilli is in the soupmaker as I type).

    There is enough leftover chicken to make a salad for our lunches tomorrow and the rest will be turned into a big wok of chicken and prawn pad thai for tomorrow night (and Tuesday).

    DH cooked a chicken & roasted pots & veg on the BBQ tonight. Was really good.

    There's enough chicken left for dinner tomorrow with some chips & beans plus enough to make a curry which will do us for 2 meals which I'll freeze for next month.

    Dinner tonight was salmon, roasted potatoes and onions with samphire. Served with a tiny amount of hollandaise sauce because I'm *trying* to be healthy!

    We had pork, stuffing, red cabbage, jersey potatoes, broccoli in cheese sauce, brussels and roasted carrot and parsnip. Sounds good in theory but I didn't roast the carrots and parsnips for long enough, put too much vinegar in the red cabbage, and overcooked the potatoes. Apparently the pork was nice!!
    Must try harder, my mind is on other things.
