I’m doing roast beef and Yorkshire pudding today. Beef joint was £7.99 in Aldi and should yield about 6 good slices, one for today, one for tomorrow and 4 for the freezer (frozen individually as I’m single. 12 Yorkshire puds will leave 10 for the freezer using same principle. I’ve got homegrown new potatoes and will add carrots and frozen green beans.5

I have an enormous joint of beef simmering gently in the slow cooker with some red wine, thyme, garlic and rosemary. It’s a much larger joint than I would normally have bought for just the two of us, and it only just fits in the slow cooker (but I can’t complain, I was thrilled that I managed to get a home delivery slot and the quality of the beef looks superb).
We will have this tonight with a red wine and port gravy, mashed potato, cauliflower cheese and green beans. I’ll portion up some slices for the freezer, and will browse tinternet today for some ideas for what to do with the rest of it. I expect there will be a cottage pie made, but there will still be heaps left over!3 -
