Home cooked ham with my marmalade topping, steamed potatoes,carrots,medley of beans & little courgettes fried in olive oil & butter with garlic,breadcrumbs & Parmesan. And since it’s Saturday a strawberry tart each from Sainsbury’s 😊 ooh & glass from the bottle of merlot that I was given by my plot neighbour last night

Mmmmmm curry, but tonight's plans are already set.  I made salads yesterday (bean, coleslaw, tomato) to go with pork loin steaks.  We have the leftovers tonight with crusty bead and whatever OH finds or takes a fancy to at the Co-op later.  My money is on sausages or burgers, but as I am working and it will be tea in a hurry when I get in, anything will be good  :)

I have curries in the freezer though, so we could have them tomorrow.  But I also have lamb mince in there and courgette fresh from the plot, so meatball and sliced fried courgette in parmesan breadcrumbs has also caught my eye  :lol:

I've got a lot of veggies at the moment, and a cool day for the oven to go on for bread, so I'm thinking of a nice thick Minestrone and crusty bread or cheese topped rolls with it :)

Hmm the me n u says turkey & ham pie, but just come back from the plot with a washing up bowl full of courgettes, some not so small! Eek. Minestrone soup sounds good but only got beans to go with it so maybe not. Might need to go & get cream cheese for my courgette & cream cheese soup, it freezes well, but then might need to persuade our son to switch his other freezer on & let me use it!

Bribery and ice cream corruption??   :nowink:  Amazing what the promise of some ice cream can do.  I've got the recipe for some dark chocolate and beetroot icecream that I am soooo tempted to try.  Think of the colour!! But no room in the freezer.  :unsure:

Anyway - I have cabbages splitting their round heads and beans that need picking (not sure that the french beans are going to do a lot more, the rain has come too late for them), so I think chicken and cabbage cass (the one with the golden syrup) with mixed beans.

Special treat as I'm feeling sorry for myself - a cabbage.

It may get some mash put with it but I doubt it.  ;) It will have some salt and pepper and a goodly dollop of colmans english mustard made fresh from powder not the instant stuff.

Tonight we will be back to curry - spinach (actually beet leaves) and egg curry, with rice for OH.

Curry here as well (at last!).  Tamil nadu mince and a plain dhal are defrosting ready for when I get back tonight.  I'll add veg to the dhal, do a cucumber and mint yogurt and buy some poppadoms at some point of the day.

There is a chicken cooking on top of a layer of lemon (heaven only knows how long they had been in the salad drawer) in the slow cooker.  Sauteed courgette and steamed cabbage to go with, plus some crusty rolls for OH.
