Left over chicken with gigandes beans in a tomato sauce, salad on the side.
Then fancied something sweet, so HM raspberry jam on a couple of crackers (oops!)

We had roast pork on Sunday, so tonight is using up the remains in some way.  I was working until silly o'clock last night, so just had toast when I got in.  I want a decent meal tonight, so off to the plot in a bit to see what I can gather and formulate a plan while I go  ;)

Change of plans over the last couple of days.  I found potatoes and cheese that needed using on Tuesday, so we ended up with a cheese topped layered vegetable bake.

Last night was a curry with the leftover pork - another fridge clearer.  With that and the preserve making, I have cleared the veg glut for now and we have stocks for the winter :)

Beef bourguignon (sort of) cooked in the slo cooker, with bargain mushrooms and the odd dodgy/small onion from lifting the onion patch.  Cabbage and beans on the side.  Lots of plum puree into the freezers ...

Tonight will be the last of the chicken with calabrase (lovely stalks waiting to be picked) in cheese sauce and sauteed courgette.  Brown rice for OH.

I really want steak and chips, mushrooms and a salad  :tongue2:  I'll be having a tin of tomato soup.

I managed to shatter a tooth when I banged my head the other day and the dentist can't see me until tomorrow  :(

Nope - just a running repair till October  :ohmy:  so it's overly cooked soggy pasta, pesto and tuna.  It's alright I suppose but it's not steak and chips is it .

It's not!  And that is a long time to wait for anything with a crunch ...  pork cracking, cinder toffee, gingernut biscuits ....  Poor man.   :(

Here the diet continues .... zuppa de zuchini (courgette soup with parmesan) tonight, with hm bread for OH.  Not chips either ....   ::)

Get the slow cooker out and treat yourself to piece of brisket, cooked to melting point.  That won't be steak and chips either, but it will calm the inner carnivore and would be good for disguising soggy pasta or rice or very sloppy mashed potatoes  ;)

Dribble - No stop it  :tongue2: , it's not fair  :(

I was actually going to use the lump of piggy I have in the freezer for the weekend meals, slow cooked and shredded - but I've not had the time. Plan B is for a mushroom omelette but Im stuck for a carb to bulk it out.

Well I hope the piggy made it into the slow cooker today as pulled pork is another good option.  Too late now for the mushroom omelette ideas, but it could be mushroom fu yung another time with rice or noodles.

We had curry last night.  Tonight was salt and pepper wings, wedges, sweetcorn, coleslaw and salad - spuds, corn, cabbage and tomatoes all homegrown.
