I just make whatever I fancy eating that day and whatever I fancy is what everyone else gets.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 07/11/2022 19:36

Just DP and I here.

Tonight was veggie lasagne - bloody delicious, if I do say so myself

Tomorrow will be veggie sausages, mash and vege/gravy; maybe yorkies

After that, in no particular order:
a curry
pasta
gnocchi
Will decide which vege will go in which thing on the day. I've ordered peppers, mushrooms, courgettes, butternut squash, spinach plus various cheeses and pulses
