worked it out now!
We had veggie fajitas with quorn & veg & stuff. I found a 'family friendly' El Paso box which I bought to try with BFs son which were a success. Last time I made them he drank a few pints of water just to eat one. Tonight he happily scoffed 2 and we just added jalopenos to ours..

On a bit of break...
One of them is working on the bar for the Brits after-party...then at least an hour clearing up after they've gone, then a long journey home on the night bus back to Brixton...he'll be too tired to cook. In my experience they'll be too cream-crackered to do anything but put a plate in the microwave...plus I cook supper every night anyway, so I may as well make enough for the whole household. Plus I am definitely the best cook.

Fuck you Dave!
Well the fish pie was better than expected - though less diet friendly as it should have been as I added some double cream that needed eating up

I had to get my own tea as soon as I was capable of getting it, bar the odd family meal.
My mum had just been diagnosed with MS though.

Out for a curry tonight. Trying out a new place but I'm sure my main course will be paneer..
Tuscan bean and tomato soup mmmMMM
Don't have a tin of tomatoes but I DO have a tub of passata. So that, veg stock, black eyed beans, courgette, celery, onions, garlic, loads of fresh rosemary, couple of handfuls of farfalline to minestrone it up a bit, and some ciabatta if I can find any

There's a joke in there somewhere
Sausage and mash for us tonight, with carrot and broccoli.
I might even break open the last jar of tomato chilli jam in celebration of the return of the mash

Called away to another place
I read return of the mash to this tune

Hmmm...might put some spinach in it too actually...not done that before but thinking about it, my body's going 'YEEHHHHH SPINACH!!'
You probably won't really notice it cooked down in all that lot tbh. Unless you add it right at the end just to wilt it..

Course I'll notice it
I don't get what you've just said at all. There'll be a load of spinach in it - you can see it, taste it.

I love spinach so I don't know.
Are you talking frozen, canned or fresh spinach? Putting it in at beginning, middle or end?

Fresh around about the middle. It will be in with the other flavours, but I will still be able to taste it, know it's there, see it's there, benefit from it being thereI love spinach so I don't know.

You might not be able to really distinguish it visually from all the other ingredients if you add it fresh in the middle. It melts down to virtually nothing.
I don't think you will be able to distinguish the flavour from the other stuff you have listed.
You will get the benefit of the vitamins etc.
I would add at the end but that's because I love spinach and want to be able to taste, see, etc it.

No it doesn't melt down to nothing! Again -
wtf??Really,we will have to agree to disagree on every single point you make here kitty and I never would have thought I'd get worked up about a discussion on spinach but I am
My BODY will feel it, will know the nutrition, it WANTS it, and I listen to what my body wants. It will look beautiful, and it will not taste the same as eating spinach on its own but it will still add to the flavours.

I think kale is a better option for stews. For texture
Now see, I fucking ADORE kale, and use that probably as equally as spinach in soups and stews
I love it as a massive side veg too, sprinkled with sea salt and toasted pine nuts. Fuck me. Think I just came.
