Good evening, everyone!

What I ate today

A lovely fruit platter for breakfast - that pineapple (£1 in M&S) hs been absolutely gorgeous.  So sweet and juicy.  And the two blueberries are nearly the last ones from the bush.

Lunch was the SWK meal, creamy tarragon chicken with roasted veg.

I'm not sure I have every knowingly cooked with tarragon; it's quite a strong aniseed flavour and in this recipe it was absolutely delicious.  I'm thinking of growing some in my herb patch, maybe.

I didn't add the kale which was a sub for the cavolo nero (and didn't miss it one bit!).

As for the roasted veg, the original was just carrot and potato but I decided to jazz it up.  I added yellow pepper, red onion and tomato (not all at the start though) and roasted it all in Just Spices roast potato seasoning which made it it really very nice.

On fact, it was all so, so good and it is on the list to have again, for sure.

I had half the roasted veg (I used half the potatoes provided and one out of the three large carrots - the rest went in my fridge with the other veg) left to have for my evening meal and half the chicken (a generous portion) which will, I think, go really nicely with pasta tomorrow.

I was too full to have any fruit for dessert straight away so I had some later on.

I had roasted the veg in Nellie so I left the other half in the tray, added the salmon and baked it all for ten minutes, just enough time to cook the salmon and heat up the roasted veg.

I hadn't had any healthy extras so I added some grated cheddar and it was all delicious.

Afters was a nectarine.

Summary:
