Took the boy and his mate to Pizza Express for lunch. I had one of those diet pizzas with the salad in the middle, with goat's cheese and caramelised onions, followed by a mini chocolate brownie with a cup of tea.

Lasagne (posh Waitrose 1 one, it was really fucking good) and salad. Cup of tea.

The posh waitrose moussaka is really fit. We used to pick them up reduced sometimes. They were about a fiver and would get marked down to 99p

diet pizzas

The what now?

 

[Thimble Queen]

I'm so excited about our lunch tomorrow, we are having nacken steaks and I'm so looking forward to eating them

 

[May Kasahara]

The what now?

Leggera pizzas - smaller, thinner, with the centre cut out. Marketed as under 600 calories, which is not really what I go to Pizza Express for tbh but thought I'd try one.

 

[moose]

Ooh, sounds nice for lunch. (although the slightly damp middle is the nicest bit of a P/Ex pizza)

 

[Rebelda]

'Brazilian super grain' soup. So cold I'm heating it up now. It smells delicious.

 

[polly]

What was in it Rebelda?

I had reheated rice and peas with really addictive hot sauce from The Rib Man (the Christ on a Bike one). Tea now. My kitchen is so fucking cold that I have to put the kettle on and run back into the living room until it's finished boiling #wfhfirstworldproblems

 

[Looby]

Still feeling crap and nothing in apart from yoghurts so I've ordered chipotle chicken, spicy rice and a tub of phish food to be delivered. [emoji106]

 

[mrs quoad]

I will say this, though. One real problem with making arbitrary recipes from wherever an Ottolenghi book falls open is a real tendency to end up with plates that consist of not much more than a fuckton of finely chiselled raw veg.

With pomegranate.

:Shivery wfh fistbump: It's a Glorious soup. It says 'mixed vegetables and grains with coconut milk and lime'. Bit vague - I could type out the ingredients but I cba and am too cold to open the fridge

Oooh a plate of finely chiselled raw veg is my favourite kind of meal. Is yours dressed mrs quoad?

Thanks, that'll do I'm double-bagging my slippers (ie wearing two pairs at once). I recommend it.

Variously.

There's a loose maple and mustard mayonnaise thing with the asparagus, peas and olives; and a chilli, vinegar, rapeseed and lemon thing with the slices of raw turnip and swede. (And beetroot / carrot / parsnip). And, er. A pomegranate molasses thing with the pomegranate and onion.

Surprisingly, it all kinda works. (Especially with a vast slab of focaccia.)

We had these for tea as we went to the pub for our lunch. I also forgot to take a picture cos I was leathered

Today I had a cheese and cucumber wrap.

 

[Thimble Queen]

Omelette: Cherry tomatoes, spring onion, yellow chillI, mushroom and cheese. Popped it under the grill so it went all fluffy and brown on the top.

Marmalade sandwich, made with malted granary and M&S thick cut spiced marmalade.

I'd never seen paprika crisps until I started visiting Germany. They are surprisingly tasty.

These were from the Polish shop. They're really good, eh? I remember getting some chips in Hamburg on a school trip many years ago, and having my mind blown by the addition of paprika. Simpler times
