Woke up mega early today without a headache :0)
I have a confession though................Ive not eaten today, well i had a few olives and just had steak egg mushrooms and spinach (lots of it!). Ive honestly not had a chance. Had friends turn up early then another lot and 10 mins after they left another one arrived. I made all the kids lunch of sarnies and snacks i cant eat so by the time i actually sat down or had time to make myself food it was 7pm. I have eaten now and have been drinking loads. I know i have to eat every meal and i would have done but needed to go shopping and i cant tell people to leave. Tomorrow will be a better day for food i promise. Quite fancy my usual for brekkie then a tuna salad for lunch and not sure for dinner yet

home made burgers for me monday tea

 

[Quak]

am well into my home made burgers these days, would not buy a shop made one these days as they are soooooooo easy to make!

 

[StephenP]

bren spot on easy stuff, on top off a nice mushroom beef tom and blue cheese, idea out of a low carb book

 

[cherl889]

I know hun, and it wasnt an intentional thing it was purely coz i had nothing in the cupboard or fridge to grab as a snack/meal for myself and didnt have time to cook. Things will change tomorrow i promise.

 

[cherl889]

[StephenP]

[cherl889]

I have done a slow cooker job for tomorrow, casserole beef, 3 spring onions, mushrooms and courgette, a beef stock pot and water, it smells unbelieveably good and can't wait for tomorrow lol - I bought some Xanthan gum today as well, hope I get to use it at some point lol

 

[StephenP]

do you thicken bren at all

 

[Quak]

Not had to before, I find using oil thickens anyway, the curry I did last night I just left the lid off for a while to let some of the liquid boil away, will let you know how the Xanthem goes if I need to use it tomorrow Stephen.

 

[StephenP]

sounds nice save us a little love beef

 

[cherl889]

[cherl889]
