Yesterday I made tomato soup and pesto/mozzarella bread (OMG SO NICE) for lunch, and chilli for dinner.

Tonight I'm making salmon en croute.

I need to rethink this cooking habit as it might be saving us money, but I never get time to do any work. 🤔 (I work from home. Or, technically, don't.)

Chipolte sweet potato and black bean stew with cheddar dumplings today :)

ElizaPancakes · 05/06/2019 09:28

@EmrysAtticus that sounds amazing have you got a recipe please? I’m trying to cut down our meat intake and this would be fab, we’re all fans of Mexican style!

Chicken goujons, some Jersey potatoes and some sort of veg. Nothing very exciting!

I'm thinking about tomato orzo, or with prawns.

Salt and pepper Chilli chicken with couscous

Pasta and peas served with sauce made with a small onion, 2 cloves of garlic, 1/2 pot mushrooms, a good splash of balsamic, a veg stock cube, 2 heaped tsp green free from pesto, a tin of chopped tomatoes and some black pepper. DS 12 had cheese on his and I had nutritional yeast on mine. Bloody lovely 😊

I made epic roasted tomato risotto, stuffed to the brim with garlic, basil and parmesan. It was bloody delicious.
