[Texty_F]

Lol I know Fran she has a cheek I think. Ive progressed though lol I now use a lot of chicken etc

 

[MinkyDinky]

OH doesnt mind mince but my sis always takes the Pi$$ outta me lol. before I started SW i really had no imagination re food ideas and used to use mince a lot. So sis now always says whats for tea? are you using your cook book 1001 ways with mince the cheeky mare

But mince is so versatile! I'd have it more if he liked it. Haven't had spaghetti Bol for pfft, dunno how long! Hush your sister xx

yum sprouts too. Got to love it when people ask for seconds. It must be the feeder in us!

Lol your sis texty. Mince is always good. splosh it, spread it or squish it in a lump, mighty mighty mince.

I love sprouts and just found you can get bags of frozen baby brussels - cue one happy minks! And yep, mince is great - spag bol, chilli, lasagne, burritos, oven baked, burgers, kebabs, kofte curry, cottage pie, samosas - who could say no?! Xx

Thanks love, think i'll make this tomorrow! xx

Enjoy Hun, it really is nice. The bean juice makes it thick and yummy and it bubbled all round the potatoes, nom! Xx

We get the frozen ones! we use frozen spinach in lasagne too. loving the frozen aisle... not frozen blueberries though. If you want to play a cruel joke on someone serve them frozen (defrosted) blueberries. URGH frozen broccoli is good too. frozen cauliflower tastes a bit farty, not very nice. but frozen veg is fab for budgets.

I love sprouts, never knew you could get them frozen will deffo need to keep an eye out for them

I do love a good vegetable, my OH is obsessed that I use courgette in everything which is probably quite true but it packs out food.

Totally making the magic porridge pancakes you posted in here tomorrow night btw, hope they're as good as yours looked xx

I grate courgette into my homemade burgers yummy I got the idea from the Hairy Dieters book

 

[MinkyDinky]

Grated carrot and courgette are the greatest hidden superfree food ever. FACT.

Morning morning! Well WI day has come around quick, not sure what to expect but hoping for a nice little loss - 2lbs would be awesome. Seems like I'm hovering around this 12 stone Mark and my body doesn't want to see less but I'm going to keep at it. Just wish I didn't have social events the next 2 weekends in a row to potentially stop me from gaining again. But, such is life, I then have nothing till mums bday at end of march and then well, nada till bros bday in may - but that doesn't stop weekend frolics with the girlfriends does it? Hmmm...

So food! My favourite topic of conversation. Today, as with all WI days is minimal.

Breakfast - 2 plums and banana
Lunch - melon, velvet crunch possibly
WI at 7:30
Dinner - chicken and spinach curry and aloo tikki

Have bought a new kitchen item! Potato ricer woo! Recipe calls for really really smooth potato so I thought heck, why not just make it easy rather than standing mashing and working those arm muscles for no reason? Will report back tonight if any good.

Now to go to work, boo.... Xx

Good luck for WI! Xx

Good luck minks! xx

 

[dudette2001uk]

Good luck for your weigh in hun! I'm sure the scales will be kind to you! xx

 

[Arctic-BNG]

A ricer is the way ahead for mashed spuds, you can't do swede through it though! Too fibre-ry

 

[jamjar15]

Good luck for weigh in!!

 

[MinkyDinky]

Thanks for all the luck guys, I need it! Having a right hungry day. Resulted in me digging through my desk and finding some fruit crunch ryvitas and munching one. Needed something sweetish.

Roll on frigging WI and dinner time!!
