Mutton and veggies X two for dinner and tea. Not adventurous but good grub and I am lucky, I enjoy it.

The mutton and veggies went down well X two for dinner and tea.

Eggs and bacon for breakfast and the last of the week's cooking for tea leaving an empty fridge ready for a fresh start. I have next week's cooking planned for already! It will have plenty of good slow cooked meat, the cheapest cuts and lots of vegetables.

Egg and bacon for breakfast and steak pudding and peas for tea.
I have got a pound and a half of shin beef and will build an old-fashioned Lancashire Hot Pot in a cast iron casserole tomorrow. Just in time for the fall in temperature and a temporary return to winter!

Egg and bacon for breakfast and a funny tea, I fancied a 200gm pot of roll mop herring and filled up by picking on half a small barbecued chicken. A little of what you fancy does you good!
Cooking today, I must build a Lancashire Hot Pot the old fashioned way, in a heavy cast iron pot.

Steak pudding and peas for breakfast and Hot Pot for tea. Lovely tender meat and unctuous gravy!

Hot pot X two for dinner and tea. A perfect match for the weather!

Eggs for breakfast and hot pot for tea.... I think I am well nourished!

Same as yesterday but nothing boring about it!

Yesterday was eggs for breakfast, 200gm of pickled herring for a snack in the afternoon because I was peckish and the last of the hot pot for tea. Butcher's day today!

Sausage and baked beans for breakfast and Battered cod fillets and peas for tea.

Steak pudding and peas for breakfast and snacking at teatime. I wasn't particularly hungry. I stewed some tart plums because I have some Jersey cream Kath has sent me but in the end didn't fancy them. I shall be more positive today!

Straight mashed veggies and cauliflower for breakfast. Chicken wings and veggie followed by stewed tart plums and cream for tea.

Two eggs for breakfast. Wings and veggies followed by plums and cream for tea. Lovely!

Hot afternoon so it's sardine salad - posh sardines from Waitrose. The Elephant Atta arrived last evening and that's a chapatti. Just flour and water - and cooked in the microwave. Room for improvement I'd say, but I've eaten it.

Sardines (and their ilk) are much underrated I reckon David. I often add a tin to Mutton Stew, they definitely make a contribution.
I had steak pudding and veg for breakfast, Wings and veggies for tea and the last of the plums and cream.

Steak pudding and veggies for breakfast, Wings and veggies for tea.

Spam and eggs for breakfast (took me back to the war years!) and the last of the veggies with grilled sausages for tea.

Sausages and Onion Gravy last night.
Chicken Curry on the build for tonight.

Ah, onion gravy! You will be triggering me again Maz.

Cook your onion gravy long and slow, Stanley. Better taste and less side affects. ( takes me an hour to cook mine...then I leave it to sit and meld...then I reheat it gently)

I always cook long and slow Maz.....(Pans are easier to clean as well!)
Sausage and baked beans for breakfast. Fish chips and peas for tea.

Bought some fresh fish (Garfish...our favourite!) at the fishmonger today. ( all gutted and cleaned of course). So I have crumbed tonight’s portion and frozen the rest for the same joy another night.
Not too expensive - 2 meals worth for £10. A treat though.

And very good for you. Fresh fish beats frozen despite the cost. The Covid virus has stopped our fresh fish van attending on Thursday and Saturday, I miss it.

Small pork Pie and two small tomatoes for breakfast. Sausage, egg, peas and chips for tea.
