Day Nine in Sydney and a continuation of Holiday Meal Planning. Today is all about cleaning out the fridge, using everything up and making sure we have snacks for the car. We’re leaving early tomorrow morning to drive home. I miss my dog, my thermomix and my sewing machine but with the exception of Bronte, […]
Day Four in Sydney and a continuation of Holiday Meal Planning. We actually had a meal today that I didn’t cook so don’t expect a recipe for lunch! It was delicious. Probably a tad to much chilli though. I like it hot but it killed the actual flavour of the laksa. We ate in the […]
Day Three in Sydney and a continuation of Holiday Meal Planning. I had to do a small shopping top up last night, I bought more bread, eggs, rocket and a massive bunch of coriander. Most of which is already gone. I’m going to have to hit the supermarket again in the next day or so. […]
I cooked a lovely roast chook the other night and padded it out with lots of salad and baked potato. It was a great big one so I intended to leave myself enough leftovers for a couple of meals. I can justify paying around the $20 mark for an organic chook if I can get […]
The pantry raid (phew, lucky I didn’t leave that ‘r’ out), continues tonight with a recipe I’ve been meaning to try for ages plus a sauce cobbled together out of leftovers. I generally do my supermarket shopping at a wonderful IGA, Leo’s. Apart from not belonging to Coles or Woolworths which is a major plus […]
I did my supermarket Christmas shopping tonight. Just have the fruit and veg to go now. I seem to have spent a small fortune on food lately and the house really is very well stocked, Christmas notwithstanding. So I have decided that I am only allowed to restock on fruit and veg for the next […]
I vaguely remember doing something similar to this last summer and really enjoying it. So I recreated as best I could remember. It’s a lovely summer meal served with a salad and leftovers are perfect for lunch boxes. Tuna & Cream Cheese Rolls. 485g tin tuna in springwater 250g block cream cheese 1/2 red onion, […]
This was actually a quick throw together of some chicken breasts with leftover Morrocan Style Vegetables and Couscous. Very quick and easy and it tasted completely different to it’s previous incarnation. Truth be told, it could have done with a splash of white wine but I didn’t have any. Creamy chicken, Chickpea and Couscous Leftover […]
