WOW - you must have a fair amount of space in your freezer for those meals !!! What a FAB idea - I use tupperware tubs every time I do a slowcooker meal I make up a tub to freeze and scoff the rest.... you must've been slaving away for ages! Well Done you.... what time do you want me round for dinner then? LOL

Lovely pics/recipes furry stomper! You're so organised with your meals and cooking, I love it!

Britmum you'll love tilapia, its like a combination of sea bass and cod. Its a lovely meaty texture but still delicate tasting and flaky - if that makes sense lol.

DH and I went to Borough Market today and we went a bit crazy with the vegetables and seafood. We got these giant prawns that were just mouth watering when we ate them. Roasted them in the oven with potatoes, cherry tomatoes, asparagus, olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Delicious!

Hi sorry for late repley, the dumplings was from a box mix of atora herby mix i think it was something like 5syns per 38g but i used the whole box and then divided the syns.
As for the meat bit, it was celeriac, sweede, mushrooms, onons, carrots, celery and a bag of casarole beef all just threw in a big roasting pan with a lid and
about a pint n half of beef stock and a bay leaf hope that helps you.

Tuna Salsa Verde

My dinner last night. Yum yum yum! I love this salsa verde with fresh tuna then wrap it in foil and bake for about 7-10 mins. It's always really nice with chicken! I reserve some of the salsa and toss it in green beans as a side.

1 HEX B for whole thing

1 clove garlic
1 tsp maldon sea salt
handful chopped basil
handful chopped parsley
1.5 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp capers, chopped
2 anchovy fillets, rinsed and chopped
1 tsp wholegrain mustard
1 tbsp olive oil

Crush the garlic and sea salt together with a pestle and mortar (or rolling pin and bowl) until a paste. Put in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. Blitz with a hand blender until roughly blended.
