Then of course you must have a slice of birthday cake and maybe another slice as it was so yummy!!! Then finished off with as requested by Ozzie homemade Burgers, salad and spicy potato wedges which I made with new potatoes … Read entire article »

Meal planning Monday

Last week we pretty much stuck to our plan except Saturday saw a change to a homemade Indian meal. This was due to the fact Bex changed her D.T project from Italian which didn’t really inspire her to Indian. Which quite frankly is a lot more work. So Saturday saw a rather yummy menu swap, Vegetable Jalfrezi,  Bombay potato, pilau rice, cucumber raita and homemade naan bread were all made and served. Also two melted … Read entire article »

I have decided this week to get the slow cooker out one day as I used to loved using this but really only ever seem to do stew in it.

This week is Bex’s birthday, 13 tomorrow!!! So she has chosen her birthday meal (good choice), veggie burgers for later on in the week and Homemade pizza as it was such a success last week. I am een going to make a gluten free version so I don’t feel left out!!! So here is what we will be eating this week: Monday: Spicy turkey and pear burgers with potato wedges and salad. Tuesday: Bex’s choice, Easy chicken kebab, served in tortilla wraps (more popular the … Read entire article »

Well the week whizzed past last week and I can’t believe we are here on Monday again. I stuck to the meal plan except yesterday we swapped roast for homemade asparagus and tomato Quiche. Gluten free and very tasty, I actually baked it blind first which I never usually do as it seems a bit of a faff but it really made a difference. As it is half term and the run up to Bex’s birthday … Read entire article »
