Eggs Benedict.

Saturday 10 / 06 / 2023 ..

I’m cooking a fish & prawn gratin, with home made coleslaw, peas and sweetcorn.

Chicken, mushroom and vegetable (red pepper, cornichons and peas) risotto. Haven’t made one for ages. It was lovely. And a glass of wine to wash it down!

Green bean potato curry, quinoa, bread, salad, fruit.

Chocolates and drinks for after, sitting outside. My brother lives with us and brings out our worst possible behaviour.

Sweet and sour chicken yum yum

Sunday 11 / 06 / 2023:

A classic Greek Salad and Taramosalata ..

Monkfish ..

I cooked a chicken yesterday - I didn’t want to but it had to be used. So dinner tonight was cold chicken, cold stuffing and salad. When it was all on the plate I really didn’t want it but I never want to eat in the heat. The cat was delighted though. If the threatening thunder storm develops (please) I might try again.

Roast chicken with potatoes and broad beans from the garden.

Lentil Sausageoulet (for my brother with sausage, us without), bread, green salad. Fruit, chocolates and drinks after, outside.

Brilliant, easy, delicious. And outside? Fantastic.

On holiday in Wales went to one of our favourite pubs had gorgeous steak pie.

Pualo, cannellini veg salad on rocket and tomatoes, fruit. Additionally: steak for my brother. He's purchasing dessert and wine.

Chicken curry, Made from yesterday’s left overs.

Pizza for a change ..

A salmon salad sandwich and a large bowl of fresh fruit (strawberries, raspberries and nectarine) and cream.

An easy pork chop tray bake - Greek style - potatoes, tomatoes, onions, peppers, courgettes, kalamatas. For us I shredded tofu, marinated and baked on on part to the tray. Bread, salad, fruit.

Wednesday: Pasta ..

Green curry tofu with green spring veg, bread, salad, fruit.

A Nasi Goreng (Waitrose, for dh) and a Beef Udon Noodles, ditto, for me. Dh went shopping yesterday - I had stayed the previous night at DD’s, to help SiL with 3 young Gdcs while dd is away for work.
Came home exhausted last night! I had thought I had recovered completely from pneumonia earlier this year, but evidently not quite yet.
V glad it’s a ‘no cooking’ night tonight.
