Roast Chicken and chips and peas
Homemade steak-pie with boiled potatoes and cauli, broccoli and carrot/swede mash…and gravy !
Last night we had grilled rainbow trout. Petit pois and chips, tonight? not even thought about it yet, but am off into town in a while so will see what is on offer. As for tomorrow, well last week bought a luverly big beef joint for half price, and it has been sitting maturing in my 'fridge for a week now, so roast beef, roast spuds/parsnips, Yorkshire puds cabbage (the dark green crinkly variety not the tasteless white one) cauliflower and carrots. And of course loads of proper thick dark home made gravy.
Dark green crinkly is Savoy, but has anyone seen January King lately (similar to Savoy but with purple on leaves) I like spring cabbage (now called spring greens) too. Like white cabbage with ribs. Not supposed to have a lot but provided I have it regularly can work round it.
I have taken some Mince out of the freezer so it will either be Spagetti Bolognaise if my son wins or Cottage Pie if I win:-)
I love all fruit and vegetables and eat them every day in quantity…fruit for breakfast and supper and plenty of veg for dinner.
You could always make chili or a nice meat pie 
You had steak pie yesterday CJ it’s no use just saying you live in England how will I know how long it’ll take me to get there, cos on here we always invite ourselves if the offer doesn’t come in first. I like chili too.:-D:-D:-D
We actually had the steak pie today hazel, it was just OK - Mrs CJ loved it but I have a more sensitive palate and I thought it needed something…you know what I mean ?
When we get to know each other a little better, perhaps you could drop by for a spot of lunch 
Whey hey I’ve got a sat nav now I can go anywhere, well nearly. The woman keeps tryng to lead me astray but I’m too clever for her (well mostly), I knew she was wrong when the sign said Chepstow, and I’d never seen it before, I was going from Bristol to Birmingham at the time.:-D:-D
When you say it needed a little more something it wasn’t the steak you’d forgot to put in was it. I made corned beef hash for hubby, but left corned beef out cos he said it dissappeared, when I came in he’s eaten it without putting it in and hadn’t missed it at all.:-D:-D
We ate out at a very nice local restaurant tonight courtesy of our lovely German neighbour. There were 7 of us altogether, German, Philippine, Swedish and us. Here are 3 of the starters, the main meals were even bigger, desserts were quite spectacular but I couldn’t manage half of what I did have never mind dessert.

I presume the second dish were razor clams Loretta darlin’ - not too keen on Kalamari, and not really a ‘fish’ person, but the ham and salami plate looks very interesting, without the ‘rabbit food’ decoration, and yes I could so easily polish that off and still have room for ‘pud’.
Well, after that last exchange with hazel it made me fancy something hot 
so today I have made a nice hot chili - it is maturing now and I will make some turmeric rice and a salad to serve with it later today 
The second dish was asaparagas. I’m not a seafood person at all but I did eat a couple of calamaris from that plate and I was surprised to find they were much nicer than ones I have tried in the past. These were just the starters, the main courses everyone had consisted of steaks, pork fillet with wine and honey sauce, pork chops, lamb chops etc etc.
That sounds fabulous Loretta darlin’ - but what’s everyone else having???:-):-):-)
Nobody managed to eat everything Uncle Joe, not even the men. I think I got about half way through my steak with green pepper sauce before I gave up, the portions were huge.
Sounds lovely Loretta darlin’ - but just ask Hazel and Jean here on the forum whom I know personally just what an appetite I do have.
Well in the end we actually had crisply grilled slices of belly pork, huge baked spud each and baked beans yesterday and am now about to put the beef in the oven.
Sounds lovely Loretta darlin’ - but just ask Hazel and Jean here on the forum whom I know personally just what an appetite I do have.
