Wholewheat Fusilli pasta with courgette and guanciale

Why no rice? You don't like rice?

Oh I do like rice but I just fancied trying this dish and it was marvellous!

Mr SSOAP made dirty fries (more like chips than fries over here) with the cheese under the hot pulled pork. He did a good job.

Pastrami Ruben.

Korean Hot Pot last night. It’s a messy affair.

Note to self: when making a haslet and mustard sandwich, ensure to add the haslet

I had left overs
Braai tonight
And I understand German

Leftovers for us as well. Tacos and chicken curry. Not a great combination, but we didn’t waste food. Dessert was a homemade cherry pie and cream. We have one piece left. I’m not much on sweets so I’ll let my wife have that tonight.

Not today but the last evenings meal before flying back yesterday.
Paella for both Mr SSOAP and my sons and I had what is a kind of mixed fish dish which was like paella without the rice!

My dish, it was so good I’ll be back for more. There’s a gorgeous chunk of monkfish lurking under there!

Mr SSOAP and the boys had one of these each. He likes paella so much I had to show you that he always looks like a big kid when it turns up and that makes me rather happy too.

And the view didn’t hurt the flavours one bit
The sun went down between ordering and it turning up. The sunset was gorgeous.

I am deeply envious. I love seafood very, very much and I quite understand your partner's reaction to the paella.

Toasted bread crumbs?

 

[karadekoolaid]

Given my appalling diet over the past 5 days, I decided that today I would eat properly.
Buttered toast with peanut butter and pepper jelly for breakfast.
Cauliflower cheese, potatoes and carrots for lunch.
And if I'm hungry a little later on, it will be goat cheese, watercress, baby lettuce, rocket from the garden and a few slices of tomato.

Sheet pan meal mostly. Onions, fennel and red bell pepper strips roasted until soft and partly caramelized, shrimp tossed in garlic, oil, butter, and a bit of the juice from preserved lemons. Couscous with chicken stock, pine nuts, garlic, a bit of preserved lemon juice, and chopped up preserved lemon.

Toasted bread crumbs?

Yes - I had to use up the last of the bread I’d made. It also has garlic, red pepper flakes, and parsley in there as well.

I had three cherry tomatoes from the neighbor, and those ended up in there as well. Just a tossed together meal.

Baked chicken with corn.

But no mention of the container of ice cream!
