CBA fairy here today, so tinned tuna and tinned sweetcorn plus a dollop of mayo and some HM bread. Sorted!
Handful of sultanas and walnut pieces afterwards  ;)

A post football KFC (How can I resist something called the Big Daddy box?) meant a big dinner was off the cards tonight. Cheese on toast miraculously morphed into chilli nachos and a bag of wine gums for pudding. Happily full  :lol:

White pizza - no tomato, but topped with thin sliced par boiled potato, sliced onion, herbs and a strong tangy cheese, plus some green salad on the side.  Olives added to my pizza, but none for OH.

The bases were sourdough and had been rising on trays all day, the topping was prepared that morning, so it was a 5 minute job and into the oven  :)

The last couple of nights have been slow-cooked beef casserole with mash.
Today I'm making a batch of Cornish pasties, the pastry is resting in the fridge now.

Nothing - except some fresh fruit.   Been to Craft Club all day which included, a ploughman's with all the cheese, ham, pickles etc.   Cups of tea, cake and far too many biscuits.  That's it  :blush:  Mrs B,

Pasta bake because disrupted plans during the week left me with an odd assortment in the fridge to use up.  It was OK though and I got away with it  :lol:

Southern fried (baked) chicken, chips and coleslaw. Dessert is an abundance of Warsteiner beer.

Quick question on these  :)  Is it normal shortcrust pastry and do you use mince or chopped meat.  I fancy having a go  :)

I use this recipe now Make your own Genuine Cornish Pasty | Cornish Pasty Association | Genuine Cornish Pasty : Cornish Pasty Association
but do use the Co op's Lean Beef Steak Mince rather than the skirt in the recipe . When I made them with Tesco's cheap mince everyone said they weren't as nice, which makes sense I suppose  ::)
I found I heaped teaspoon salt and the same of black pepper right for the seasoning.
Be warned, if you make 6 as suggested, they really are huge like the ones you have in Cornwall. I tend to make them smaller and get 8 out of the recipe, now!

Post-swimming Generic Burger Emporium calorie rebalance for lunch meant a very late and light tea tonight, Freezer parsnip soup and a couple of curry seasoned boiled eggs for protein.
