… Herby Vegetable Couscous & Tzatziki I’m cooking a Greek chicken dish tonight.  I’m doing this meal for Gavin’s, my house mate’s, family.  We all used to go to the same church when I lived in Nottinghamshire, about ten years ago.  It’s nice to catch up with them all.  By and large this is a … Continue reading »

… Autumn Salad & Cranberry Dip  This was a meal I did without any thought.  I just pick a meal, walked to the shops to buy the ingredients and then came home and cooked it.  It was also one of those meals that I wasn’t starting to cook until after 10 at night.  This looked … Continue reading »

… Sticky Rice & Dressed Greens    Tonight I cooked for Art, Beverly and Charlie.  It was the third meal in a row involving some kind of seafood.  Although the recipe is called Asian Sea Bass, the list of ingredients does say you can use either bass or bream.  I used bream because it was … Continue reading »

This meal involves making a tomato sauce packed full of loads of veg (two peppers, … Continue reading »

… Tomato Sauce & Courgette Salad    It feels like a while since I’ve done a 15 Minute Meal.  I hadn’t intend to cook a meal tonight, but decided to at about 6 o’clock and so a quick walk to the supermarket was required and I had no guests to cook for other than my house mate.  I feel … Continue reading »

… Smashed Sweet Potato & Fresh Corn Salsa    So I haven’t cooked since Monday … well that’s not quite true. I cooked (yes actually cooked) breakfast on Wednesday and I kind of made lunch today – but it was more just tarting up leftovers that actual cooking.  However the point is that I haven’t … Continue reading »

… Spinach, Chickpea & Feta Parcels  It was two more van moves.  Then the van to return and then some cleaning in the old flat.  Then some sorting in the new house.  I have chosen a bedroom on the second floor and begin to regret it after carry on my stuff up two flights of … Continue reading »

… Tomato Toasts, Watercress & Pea Salad  So I am moving and the second van load has been unloaded.  It’s time for some lunch. Left on the list to cook today is a frittata or a Greek salad.  Debbie, who is helping with the move, gets to choose which.  She chooses this and so this … Continue reading »
