Pizza last night - mushroom and cheese, anchovy and motz - all with I think the last hm tomato sauce base from our tomatoes.  I am going to have to buy some plum tomatoes in a tin and make sauce ...  :ohmy:

Tonight is beef (and lots of veggies) casserole from the slow cooker, with little potatoes cooked in it.

Last night was sausages cooked in the oven and a load of plot veg.  Potatoes boulangere with Kifli spuds,  spaghetti squash warmed in the oven with butter and black pepper, plus wizard beans from the freezer.

Tonight is veggie curry  :)

Macaroni cheese with garlic bread to use up the last of the goats milk in the fridge and the odds and ends of the Christmas cheese.

Last night was the other half of the beef casserole, with sprouts which was a bit same again too.  Nice though.

Tonight is cold ham from the freezer, with beetroot gratin, the last of the kale (suffered badly from the snow collapsing the brassica cage) and some potato wedges.

I've made a thick stew in the slow-cooker. 2 chicken legs which I couldn't separate yesterday, so left to defrosted and added to the pulses that were soaked overnight, plus carrots, swede, onions, garlic and a few wrinkly tomatoes  :lol:

It has smelt lovely all day while it has been cooking - it was, of course, necessary to keep tasting it  ::)
 :D

Another set of marrow rings - this time on buttered charlotte slices and stuffed with spicy pork mince (think garlic, ginger, chilli).  Onion gravy has been requested.

Hm pizza(we’ve decided it needs to be smaller as we keep wasting the leftover pieces,we think we’ll eat it in the next day or so,then don’t & by the time we realise it’s too late for the freezer) salad for me & chips for him.

We've had to do that too.  But it helps to reduce the calories consumed a bit.  The diet approach is just not to cook quite as much or serve quite as much, so there is a bit less on the plate.  Then when we have got used to that step it back again.  The problem is the tendency for quantities to drift back up ...  :unsure:

Anyway, tonight is a pork, leek and apple slo cooker, with little potatoes cooked in with it.  If it stops raining I might fetch some sprouts, otherwise runners from the freezer.
