I hope I am committing a sin by starting a new thread but the other one is full and I enjoy it and the photos smile

I popped to the cheap farm shop on the way home from work to buy dog food and vegetables so I have made a sausage casserole with jacket potatoes. I normally put the potatoes in the casserole (I know wink ) but there was no room as I bought a rather nice leek grin it smells delicious smile

Two ready meals bought by dh the other day, don’t even know what they are and don’t care. Also had one last night - a Charlie Bigham fish pie - after getting home late and knackered after doing Gdc duty since Monday.
Tomorrow we’ll be having roast pork though. 😋

Oven fish and chips with mushy peas, I might have a pickled onion 🙂.

Tortilla wraps with chilli out of the freezer, crispy salad and grated cheese.

A rather traditional vegetarian dish this evening: cauliflower cheese. I have to admit to using far too much cheddar. Possibly needs another sprinkling.
Or two.

Lunch Tuesday 26 / 03 / 2024:

Since lunch was a classic Italian Meatloaf served with a side salad, we shall have a very very light bite approx. 21.00.

An array of tiny sandwiches..

The weather has been awful, rain, windy and grey for 2 days. So, we shall watch a film and have a simple array of munchies.

Ensaladilla Rusa ( Olivier Salad) - a potato - tuna salad very common in Spain.

Some Quiche - spinach and Gruyère cheese.

A glass of wine and some charcuterie with assorted bread stick & crackers.
