Last night was a touch busy, so chard and tomato curry and beetroot curry, both from the freezer, with rice.

Tonight I am again raiding the freezer - this time for pasta sauce and meatballs.  What would I do without the freezer?

Savoury mince (from the freezer) with roasted butternut squash & a large mushroom plus some calabrese, he’s made a meat & potato pie from his share of the mince 😱 so both happy

Been mudlarking on the plot so tired.  Easy option taken of shop bought pie, but did make hm roasties and braised leeks to go with it, plus retrieved some Wizard beans from the freezer.

More mudlarking today, so sausages, plot spuds and leeks, broccoli and spoon standing were required.

I've been struggling through work with a cold the last few days and have been hard pushed to find an appetite for much tbh  ::)

A shift at job no 2 beckons later, but I've prepped ahead.  There is a large pan on the stove with a base of onion, carrot and celery all pulsed in the food processor, diced beef straight out of a bag from the freezer, plus a sauce of stock, leftover hm tomato sauce, chilli and some seasonings.  Some pre-cooked borlotti have just gone in out of the freezer and the whole lot is having a final simmer.  For a slung together dish, it is very tasty  :D

It's almost worth going to work so I can look forward to coming back to it .... almost  :lol:

Left over tomato and pepper sauce from the freezer on chicken thighs, and salad bits to go with some small Greek-style yellow loaves, which I've finally made successfully  Yay! (The right recipe always helps  :lol:)

The final portion of beef and borlotti stew is going in a pan any minute now and I have some fresh noodles to go with, plus some spinach to wilt and stir in.

Job done, then feet up  :D
