dunno, am going straight from work to a training session so it might be a bag of crisps or something :hmm: :(
i got the date wrong :oops: the training is tonight :D

last night i had beer and then stuffed my face with tuna pasta with loads of cheese when i got in.
 
Last night we had asparagus and brazil nut stir fry with quinoa. Mmmmmm – tasty – lovely local asparagus too :cool:

Funny thing though, actually followed a recipe, which claimed the amount was for 4-6 people – they are having a laugh! We ate a nice meal sized portion each, and there were two of us, and that was the whole lot gone! Nutters…
 
I'm going to have my first crack at making meat burgers tonight. So: burgers in tasty buns, with garlicky potato wedges. My lengthy period of meatless eating is officially a thing of the past :oops:
 
Don't know yet. Last night the boy suggested we go out somewhere for tea tonight, but I was in a shit mood, so said no :rolleyes: :(
I'll be too knackered to cook when I get home... wonder if it's too hot for the chippy? :oops: :D

Edit: oooh, May, I want that for tea now, but the mince is in the freezer... dammit!!!
 
Ate too much curry for lunch and will be out later buying ingredients for a huge mezze tomorrow so probably just beer and a cheese sandwich.
 
Bit of a frisky day for me today which I,m sure will reflect in the roast veg thing I,m gonna put together in a few minutes.
 
I've bought a loaf of cranberry and wheatgerm bread today, so i'm making humous and spinach sarnies with it. and for afters rhubarb and vanilla ice cream:cool:
 
left overs of Gordon Ramsey's Blue cheese, spinach and mushroom pie with potato salad with my home grown chives, peas and leeks.
 
Dry-rubbed curried pollock fillets on the barbeque, chana chole, okra curry with tomatoes, rice, green salad. Fart-inducing, but well worth it.
 
...of course. ;) :cool: :p :D

Detecting a pattern, eh? :) It's all about roughage. Keeps the workin's workin', for those of us d'un certain âge.

Seriously, there are so many tasty wild things that are edible only this time of the year and the greenhouse is pumping salad-y stuff out faster than we can consume it without growing long ears and a bushy tail.

Tomorrow it'll be fiddleheads at dinnertime. Do you have those in the UK?
 
T-bone steak, baked spuds, baked carrots/parsnips, fiddleheads sauted in garlic butter, green salad.

yum!
 
They look pretty amazing!

My burgers last night ROCKED. Incredibly rich though; I don't think I'll ever be someone who eats meat every day.
 
last nite went out to dinner with a bunch of friends....i had a 20oz bone-in ribeye steak with white cheddar mash and green beans.

it was WONDERFUL....:)

Oooh! I was thinking about making burgers tonight - I always struggle getting them to stick together though.

Tell me about these garlicky wedges - how did you make them? They sound just the thing to go with some blue cheese mayo.

yum!


Are those fiddleheads? What on earth are they? :eek:


We are having burgers and chips. I was going to do a mini barbecue for the boys but I can't find it. :confused:
 
Fiddleheads are the immature fronds of the ostrich fern that grows in vast colonies along our river.

The taste is unlike anything else but it's most often compared to asapargus. We picked three twenty-litre pails of them yesterday; today I'm blanching them and putting them into 500 gram freezer bags so we can have them all year. :)
