Cooking Tonight (continued)

[Snoop Puss]

^You practising for Masterchef, SP? That looks yummy.

Yesterday was a bit of a baking day as very fidgety. Made three loaves and the best almond, lemon and polenta cake yet. Could be the last one for a while as it was very nearly the last of the ground almonds. Supper was pasta in a courgette and creme fraiche sauce.

Today: definitely soup for lunch. It's too cold for anything else.
Supper: stewed lentils (brown lentils with assorted diced veg and, in today's case, a bit of chorizo stirred in for flavour).

I love almond snoop

[Bren In Pots]

Something with jacket potatoes this evening. probably chilli from my freezer.

This evening black pudding, egg & my very 1st asparagus spear (just the one)
Was supposed to be just a starter but I don�t want anything else.

Congrats on your first spear SP it does looks very pretty, its nearly a shame to eat it.

You can grind your own almonds if you are desperate and have whole ones. I did once. I blanched them to pop the skins off and the put them in the mini zapper. They were slightly rougher than shop bought ones but did the job.

Need to use up some roast ham so possibly a ham n cheese omlette tonight . Some leftover new pots could be potato salad.

Yesterday was my birthday so I treated us to fillet steak with pepper sauce, garlic bread and homemade Waldorf salad.

Today I am making pasta bake with a bolognese type sauce and bechamel sauce over the top with lots of parmesan. I can already smell the mince/tomato/garlic etc cooking.
