Morning and sorry. After a bad night's sleep and a busy day, I was too tired to string two sentences together last night so here we are on Monday morning instead.
I was really quite concerned about how much meat I had to use up so, my freezer being my best friend, I now have four chicken portions and six lamb portions plus a whole pile more of lamb to make a shepherd's pie for when Dave and Anna come round on Friday evening.
Given that I'm eating more plant based stuff nowadays, that could easily last me through to the middle of May, one way or another.
Yesterday evening ended up rather 'picky' as Nicky in a Vlog says. Must curb that; it never ends well for me.
What I ate yesterday (the helpful stuff, anyway)
Half a healthy extra B
The roast lamb was lovely and, yes, that is just one small piece of roast potato. It's a habit now and that's good.
The roasties were cooked in olive oil so I've calling it one syn. I didn't use that much and there were lots more so I think one syn is right.
And moving on after an off plan (another off plan) evening . . .
(but it is a holiday weekend and I know what to do now)
Today's meal plans:
B: bubble and squeak pancake patties, mushrooms and onions
I have cabbage and broccoli left over but no potato so I'm going to see if I can use my buckwheat pancake mixture to turn it all into some sort of patty. If it doesn't work, at least I have tried, That's the main thing.
L: tomato and veg soup, croutons; fruit
D: white bean and veg penne arrabbiata, side salad; fruit
I made some more cheesy white bean sauce and added more cannellini beans to thicken it up (I also used some old pickled onions instead of the fresh kind and that worked well for the flavour); as a result, I had white beans left over so this is my way of using them up.
