    Busy day today, husband had steak and kidney pie, actifry chips, peas and gravy.
    Daughter and I had root mash, vege sausages, onion gravy and broccoli.

    Had the new actifry for 6 weeks and its died. Such a hassle now having to return it. 
  • I made a 'free form pie' last night with some cooked potatoes, bacon pieces, onion, a chopped apple and some cheddar cheese, it looks OK and smelt nice when it was cooking so that's what's on the menu for supper tonight with a green salad.
  • Morning folks, having been away for the weekend I am a bit disorganised with food this week.  Dinner tonight will be chilli con carne with rice using up a mince from the freezer.  This will do us tonight and tomorrow.  I haven't thought about Thursday yet but on the plus side my Mum is having us round for dinner on Friday.

    Using up freezer stash meatballs with marinara sauce and spaghetti 

    meatballs are from muscle foods, I buy meat packs from them occasionally, never get round to using the meatballs or the chicken burgers, so need to sort that out.
    Note to self - STOP SPENDING MONEY !!

  • We both did a shift in the charity shop this morning and ended up staying later because of not all the afternoon crew being in on time (flooding makes the roads that are open very congested) so we got cheesy chips for me and sausage and chips for HWK from the chippy for lunch.  Supper will therefore be some soup and a piece of chicken for me and soup and a sandwich for HWK.

    I am currently in the kitchen, and I'm cooking creamy spiced cod with fresh tagliatelle. It's a recipe from Hello Fresh, and it's pan fried cherry tomatoes, pancetta and chunks of cod with some creme fraiche and zhoug paste stirred through, then mixed in with tagliatelle which has been cooked together with some baby spinach. 

    I haven't ever cooked with zhoug before, but they had a small jar of it in W8rose ..... it's a mix of parsley, coriander, cumin, garlic and chilli (essentially exactly what I bung in everything I cook, so I could so easily have made my own!!!)
