Tea tonight, is a sort of bubble and squeak with a couple of venison sausages I had in the freezer. How about the rest of you?
 
Veg curry from a batch I made a couple of weeks ago, with naan bread.
 
My version of Caesar salad which has lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, chopped bacon, home made gluten free croutons, boiled eggs, Parmesan and Caesar dressing🙂
 
Using up rest of packet of reduced price low fat sausages bought yesterday, end of a pack of mushrooms, along with rest of a packet of fresh pasta, some fresh sugar snap peas and pesto.
 
Pasta and bacon / veg. Looking fwd to hubby getting home and cooking up a storm tomow night! I'm not the best cook.🙄
 
Grilled bacon chopped over steamed broccoli, sprouts, carrots and peas with EVOO. Normally add some salad beans but need to soak another batch.🙂

What's EVOO, Lurch?🙂
 
Fresh crab and brown estuary shrimps ...yumm hubby re found a wholesalers who has a public shop ....hey we now have a freezer full of fish !:D
 
Breast of lamb roasted jacket potato and kidney beans and carrots, ( after cooking take bone out and fat off ) the meat is so sweet 🙂
 
I'd love that but husband would throw up whilst I was cooking it! - he hates the smell and taste of 'sweet' lamb unfortunately! and jacket spuds don't like my BG. Which is a PITA cos I like em.

Steak with oven chips, dry-ish fried mushrooms and tomato with Chantonnay carrots and green beans steamed, then tossed in butter,

It was scrummy!

(And it was a no carbs in anything day - of which there are but two every year .... )
 
Had something I made at work which was sautéed chicken, was yummy.
 
A couple of slices of gluten free fruit loaf.
 
Veal chops/chicken breast with pancetta and pea puree/spicy lamb/fresh faggots/rump steak with creamy pepper sauce/minced lamb/pak choi.........:DI went to our new waitrose and got lots of cheap end of day bargains! The bill came to £20 and the original price for it all was £174!!!!!!!Obviously we wont be eating it all - but cooking it all in a sort of meatloaf and eating cold over the next few days🙂Bev

p.s. Forgot to add a huge slab of beef covered in mustard/horseradish and organic chicken breasts that originally cost £12 for 4!
 
Bargain, bev! 🙂 I had a 'couldn't-be-bothered' end of day lasagne and chips and a couple of penguins. Quite carby (almost totally 😱) Seem to have got the insulin right though 🙂

I saved my carb allowance for tea tonight and had a steak and ale pie (my neighbour made for me) in lovely flaky pastry with that wonderful soggy, gravy-soaked bit on the bottom, and mushy peas, and grilled mushrooms, and sweet potato fries. Yum.

I wish we had a Waitrose here Bev, sounds like you got some real bargains.
