Going to be cold ham, beetroot gratin (using up the cream from an icecream making session), fresh mange tout.  Rolls or potato cakes for the carbs, not sure which yet.

Its been a long and busy day and the CBA fairy was hovering, but I needed a decent dinner, so I kicked her out the way and threw our homegrown new potatoes in the oven to roast in a bit of oil.  Chicken thighs followed and then a pan of our homegrown Wizard beans onto the hob.

The spoon standing was out of a tub of granules though  :lol:

Last night was spinach and egg curry with rice, made with the beetroot tops from the first of the beetroot - really a last thinning, but still nice beetroot for lunch today.

Fridge clear out, today, so last of picked peas podded, half an unripe pepper (other half slugged  :( ) half a red pepper, a few tired mushrooms and a carrot  :lol: All into slow cooker plus lentils and a few diced PJ spuds.

Later, I was having a freezer move around, to make room to fit the loganberries in, and found a smidgeon of minced lamb, so bunged it in with the rest:)

I've just been out to pick a few tomatoes to find that all the Garden Pearl in tubs had split from last night's rain - so they're all gone in as well  :lol: :lol:
Slow cooker is now jam packed full, think it will make a fantastic curry!
