    Hello all

    I’m trying out the Jack Monroe kidney bean burgers which look good. Serving with sweet potato fries and pepper n tomatoes that need using. Grapes and pear after

    Dinner will be seeded bread sandwich with soft cheese, few crisps and a yogurt.

    I really like those bean burgers. Not had them for a while because DH isn't keen and I won't cook different things for us.

    I had half a pizza, I bought half price. Not impressed, home made is so much better.
    Husband had homemade steak and kidney pie from freezer. With a cheese and chive mash ( I had lots of potatoes and was freezing some) and broccoli.
    Daughter had the mash, broccoli, sausage, yorkshire pudding, carrots and onion gravy.
  • Tonight we had chicken, chorizo done in the slow cooker with pepper, mushrooms, butter beans and a passata sauce with herbs and garlic. Totally under estimated how filling this would be and made potato wedges to serve with it. Still at least tomorrow’s lunches are sorted.
