Jo your dinners sound yummy but I never get why people have so many different vegetables. I honestly couldn't be bothered to cook more than two lol. 

Cos they are yummy, and they are good for you... but mostly cos they are yummy.... I grew up with meat and 3 veg... so its like a conditioning thing... meals must have at least 3 veg, a white, a green and a yellow/orange... so in my case there is a fair wack of programming. Last night I just did a spag bol... which I put veg in too.

I put lots of veg in stuff too. This is gona sound mega gross to some I'm sure but tonight was just scrambled egg on toast. But I put in some left over totties, mange tout and brocoli from yesterday. And added half a leek and tiny bit of sweet corn lol so it was more veg on toast but I tell you what, it was delish ?

Ooooh great tip Jo. 

 

I've been so ill the last 10 days that it's really made me want to live a lot healthier than I do. I eat to fill hunger and because my life is quite busy I cook for speed. 

 

I was brought up on good nutritious food but once I left home I ate more crap. My goal is to eat for a longer healthier life now and go back to how my mum used to feed us. 

 

Off to Amazon to check out the steamers ?

Thanks Jo. I bought one before I saw this - Amazon is too easy to buy lol. 

 

I got a plug in one with 3 tiers and it will be delivered tomorrow. I think this is going to be a good easy way for me to eat a load of veg every day. I'm also going to stick some new potatoes in it so all I have to actually cook is the main.

 

Best tip EVER X X x

Tarragon chicken cooked in the slow cooker for Sunday lunch today. With buttery mash with chives through it. Plus cabbage and carrots !! 10/10 and super dooper easy in the slow cooker (crock pot). 

Then my sis in law made a chocolate and banana cake and we served that with cream 😊 it was really delicious, it has maple syrup in it.

Thought I'd join in with this with my newly-discovered joy of cooking healthy meals. This takes 20 mins, fish (cod or tilapia) is roasted in an oven along with the grape tomatoes, both with fresh parsley, garlic and a little oil or lemon butter. Mushrooms sautéed in a pan with onions and garlic and broccoli steamed.

Ok - so nobody laugh, I am no cook but I do like to eat.  

 

Kinda like biscuits' and sausage gravy without the biscuits'  .... I use diced potatoes/hash browns (a lot) with three over medium eggs, couple pieces toast. Lots of sausage gravy and salt and pepper.
