You’re making me jealous for picnics. I’ll have to do the indoor equivalent soon…afternoon tea. 😉

There will be a whole series of them after Easter. My OH has booked a week off and we've just arranged with our neighbour to chook sit in exchange for another pair of handknit socks. And it's his birthday this coming weekend, so there may be another in the pipeline...
 
Evening meal for last night and tonight.

Usually I put 3 green chillies in this cold soup but the supermarket didn't have the long thin ones I normally buy, so I bought 6 green jalapeño chillies instead. I tested the strength and thought I'd better play it safe and just put the largest one in (seeds and all). By heck there's some heat in that single chilli. I don't know what they fed it, but it was on fire. Even hubby commented on it and he's much more tolerant of chilli heart than I am when my asthma is playing up.

Honey soy tofu from the airfryer was tonight's protein. Last night we had a serving of Edamame beans.
 
I made four mini lasagnas yesterday. I like making the minis because they are 1–2 servings each depending on how hungry you are and everyone can have or not have additions to the basic cheese layers, sauce, and noodles. This time the cheese mixture had chopped frozen spinach, ricotta, raw egg, mozzarella, Parmigiano Reggiano & pecorino romano cheese. So mine (I ate half) was cheese layers, noodles, browned ground beef, mushrooms, and a hard-boiled egg. The others were - two with only mushrooms added (one will be for leftovers) and one without any additions.

Craig had Italian sausage with a caponata sauce (warm), with an herb sauce drizzle and grated parm. I added a little pasta for him, plus 4 homemade garlic rolls again. He said the sausage and caponata were an emphatic good.

I had parm crusted chicken thigh with Israeli couscous, with the same herby drizzle/sauce, grated parm, broccoli, diced cherry peppers, and grated parm plus a couple of garlic rolls.

ETA: I couldn't finish mine, had over half of the couscous left and gave the pugs a couple of big bites of chicken and garlic rolls, and I'm still stuffed. Told Craig if we got this combo again that I'd just give him a little over half of my couscous and not make extra pasta for him.
