Monday: Pizza and chips
As you may have noticed from previous posts, Mondays are never a very inspiring day for us food-wise. The one concession to healthy eating were the lovely green beans, bought from a little honesty stall near our house. Even Tom managed to eat a few!
Tuesday: Pasta carbonara
This was a quick pasta dish as Gabriel was having his first violin lesson at 6pm. It’s very simple – fried bacon, eggs and parmesan. The egg and parmesan mixture gets tossed through the piping hot, cooked pasta – it’s very quick and easy.
Wednesday: Sausage and mash
The weather’s turned all horrible and chilly lately, so we needed some comfort food. I like to roast a red onion in with our sausages which makes it a bit more exciting for the grown-ups!
Thursday: Salmon and pilaf
This was a cold, smoked salmon filet served with the Leon pilaf. The salmon filets are great to keep in the fridge for an easy meal and the boys really love them. The pilaf worked out really well again.
Friday: Fish and Chips
The weather was hideously wet, but brave James cycled through the deluge to bring us fish and chips for tea! Yes, those really are mushy peas!
This week was definitely more colourful than last week!
A very creditable week’s food, I think. Many congratulations to Tom for managing to eat a few green beans – so heroic! XXXXXX
