No inspiration here, the duck remains in the fridge as DH isn't hungry so I'm eating a packet of crisps.

Well I guess that's better than the frozen lamb incident in 'Tales of the Unexpected' :eek:

That's an episode never to be forgotten.....when she got the police to eat the evidence.

Tonight is roast chicken with new potatoes and salad.

I wonder if dogs can eat duck.

Lamb to the slaughter! I remember it well!

Gotta love the Quorn!!

Hi all,

We went out for dinner Friday, steak on the menu-yum x last night we went to a friends to see her new house and we’re treated to Sea Bass, Lobster, Prawns, new potatoes and salad, cheese board for after, very nice indeed

Today, a little more basic, fish cakes and salad. I have a whole chicken in the slow cooker for midweek meals and will make chicken and sweet corn soup for work lunches

Yes that was the one, my mum didn't like me watching Tales of the Unexpected but I seem to recall a large amount if them given I wasn't supposed to watch them :rotfl: (nor was she overly keen on my watching Spitting Image and Hale & Pace on a Sunday night either, though I am sure I knew far more about politics then than now because of it)

We've just had scrambled eggs on toast with a perfectly ripe avocado diced up and stirred through the egg, it was delicious.

Supper tonight will be gammon with jacket potatoes and peas, carrots and broad beans from the allotment and then poached rhubarb and plain yoghurt from the allotment too (not the yoghurt of course, that's from the Co Op).

MrsLW I channeled your avocado and had one on a bagel for breakfast post run. Really into them ATM for some reason, must be lacking something.

Have just assembled a lasagne for tomorrow, sundried tomatoes, soya mince, chopped courgette and half a sliced and grilled aubergine. Just need to add the white sauce tomorrow and bake. Currently have a chicken roasting which gets shared with the feline. However I am not overly hungry and just picking.

Has a pea and mint scotch egg earlier (second of two from Waitrose) really unimpressed and was expecting great things...it was just crumbly and tasteless. Will stick to Aldi and Lidl ones in future.

Rather pleased with our budget meal tonight as have been failing a bit recently at meal planning. Remembered to take mince out of the freezer (we buy local stuff from the butcher's in bulk) and a pack of rolls which were YS and had been lurking in there for a couple of months. Dinner was grilled burgers in rolls, using up odds and ends from the fridge, followed by Eton mess with Lidl cheap (but slightly squishy) strawberries and the remains of some cream which was going off tomorrow (I like to keep a tub of mini meringues in the cupboard over summer for this reason!). Cheap & satisfying and put a stop to OH who suggested we eat out (as we're both pretty exhausted at the moment).

I love avocados but they have to be just ripe enough but not over the top for maximum creaminess and flavour and so often they are just a teensy bit on either side of that aren't they? I loved the 'Giraffe' breakfast that is sourdough toast with smashed avocado on and a scrambled egg served with a side of roast tomatoes, combination of all my favourite things!
