We have a glut of asparagus and garlic scapes, so tonight will be asparagus and garlic scape risotto. 

The remaining asparagus will go onto a Parmesan Asparagus tart for lunches 👍

More to use up from the freezer - today I am defrosting two portions of hm chilli and a couple of wraps to make beef burritos.

For dessert, I have found a tin of peaches and some pots of ready made strawberry jelly. I have vanilla ice cream in the freezer, and some chocolate sauce and sprinkles .... so knickerbocker glory it is! I don’t think we’ve had those for over twenty years 🤣

Chicken wings marinated in Nando’s marinade, with chips and salad for dinner. 

Lunch is a hodgepodge of whatever we have to hand, seafood sticks, jalapeño kebabs and salad

OMG that sounds yummy - actually I have some tinned peaches (bought 'just in case') a sad dollop of vanilla icecream working on it's freezer burn, and a squeezy pouch of blackcurrent jelly (because...I have no idea why) hmmm...does peach and blackcurrent go? 
Last night I had fish in the bag and rice...almost as retro as Kinckerbocker Glory   
Not sure what tonight will be - there's a few things to use up and quite a lot on the freezer. I feel that I need to work on getting our food intake / meal planning back to some sort of normal and not feeding up in case we need to survive an Apocalypse    or taking the 'f!!k it, we're on lockdown' approach which has been very easy to do. 
So, with that in mind, I think lunch will be some oat cakes and salad and I'll try and make a proper dinner...I know there's jersey royals in the fridge still and it's perfect Jersey weather (also apt, or rather a day late as it was our wedding anniversary yesterday and we got married in Jersey - it was another lovely sunny May day then too and a jolly good bank holiday shin dig)

mackerel and microwave rice for lunch
Had a rummage in the freezer and located a rib eye steak we bought YS reduced from £5.75 to  29p -bargain . Will go lovely with chips, grilled tomato, a few onion rings and the asparagus I got the other day.

Peach and blackcurrant sounds delish, kerri!
