I'm trying to be healthy, I have eaten far too many crisps and chocolate in the lockdown that even my elasticated waist trousers are feeling tight. So I'm doing a week of no chocolate and the only snacks will be fruit.
Last night I had tuna, cucumber, tomato, olives, hardboiled egg, avocado and watercress. Followed by cherries.
Tonight we had prawn, cashew, broccoli, mushrooms, onion, red pepper, carrot stir fry with rice noodles. Followed by apple.2 -
Tonight is leftovers, fried new potatoes, gammon ham and fried eggs and a bit of salad to offset the fried 😊Note to self - STOP SPENDING MONEY !!

This thread always makes me feel so hungry!
Tonight I am making this Aromatic Beef Pilaf dish, followed by a lemon meringue pie. The lemon meringue is from one of those Green's dessert packet mixes - I have never used one of these before (it was one of my emergency Brexit/'Rona larder supplies which now needs using up). Has anyone else ever used Green's packet mixes before? Any feedback or suggestions warmly welcomed!2 -

A large shepherds pie with gravy and peas. I put lots of veg and a tin of cannellini beans in the pie to pad it out a bit.
Crumble for pudding, made from blackberries from the freezer and a tin of weird fruit cocktail. I ordered my usual peach slices and ended up with 2 tins of rather 1970s mixed tinned fruit!
