What did you cook or eat today (September 2024)

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

Not the healthiest of evening meals, but some unknown potato things that were a freebie some time ago, broad beans and peas, and some vegan nuggets served with the remains of the green tomato ketchup.

 

[SandwichShortOfAPicnic]

Bit of homemade mayo.
Punchy flavour with three raw cloves of garlic (needs overnight in the fridge for that to mellow), a tablespoon of hot english mustard, smoked himalayan salt, black pepper and two tablespoons of rice vinegar to balance out all the fat.

Now this mayo unlike the shop bought stuff I will sneak a little taste of when no-one's looking.

Doesn't last 5 minutes here so I've made two lots in the hope some of it's left when I eventually get to having my sarnie

 

[Morning Glory]

just want him to test things as he goes.

Such a simple thing that anybody can do. Why will he not do it? There has to be a reason...

Everything looks tasty! Seems to me I have a craving for string beans, as I keep looking at them.

Those are snow pea pods, not string beans.

20 hard boiled eggs for egg n cress sandwiches in a few days time.

Not very eggciting, I'll get mi coat..

That's a heck of a lot of Egg & Cress sarnies. Are you going to feed the Saracens XV?

Five people, two sandwiches each.
Approx two eggs per sarnie = 20
Well 19 because I just ate one

My DD doesn't like to taste as she's cooking. Can't understand why.

Oh sorry, yes, quite right!

Yer but as you said you’re a skinny Brit eater and I’m the yang to your yin

 

[Windigo]

Calf steak with sambal butter, fries and green beans

 

[Puggles]

What kind of noodles were these? Look delicious

Just some frozen skillet meal I get from my grocery store.

I did say that but unfortunately I'm not skinny. It's the drink, you know...

Looked at some egg and cress sandwich recipes and many do state two eggs but some say one. I suppose I think of them as a dainty afternoon tea affair so less chunky. It's amazing how many calories can be found in an innocent egg and cress sandwich.

I do one egg per sandwich.

Have either of you seen a photo of her sons and her husband? They could eat the batch without her!
