Although I was fancying an omelette with baked beans I'm not as haven't really done beans since dx, so I'm having my lovely Tesco pork sausages, yokies, tender stem broccoli and onion gravy 😛 x
 
Ill get myself ready and be there sometime after midnight Kaylz can you keep mine warm lol.
Having pork chop sweet pot mash peas and gravy here tonight .
Hmmm I will try! haha, yours sounds lovely too so bring a portion with you please! 🙂 x
 
Chicken breast flattened (with a rolling pin, brings out my inner cave woman) and wrapped round a sun dried tomato, with a bit of pancetta wrapped round the whole thing, sliced courgette, pepper and aubergine brushed with olive oil, and chopped new potatoes with chopped garlic and basil, also brushed with oil, all shoved in the oven and forgotten about for 45 minutes. Simples!

Sorry Robin, I don't like tomato or pepper, never tied courgette or aubergine but the chicken, pancetta and new potatoes sound lovely! lol x

Well, they're all done on separate trays, so you could just substitute any veg you like, or miss that tray out entirely and boil some peas instead! The tomato inside the chicken is just to help keep it moist, but if you roll it up in the pancetta, it should be fine as it is.
 
Going for lots of veg tonight after so much festive food, I have courgette from the garden to eat, so courgetti with sauce made out of onions, tomatoes, mushrooms, chickpeas and steamed green veg from garden. I am pretty sure this is not your type of food but you are welcome to round round and try anytime! :D:D
 
Going to microwave the second of two cod fillets with pea and crumb topping, which I cooked in oven on Tues evening and has been waiting in fridge.
 
Well that's done it, now I'm feeling peckish.

Sausage pasta for us tonight (It was cold and wet this morning when I decided on that).

Skinned and chopped sausages, browned with sliced onion, fennel seeds and chilli flakes. Meanwhile cook wholewheat pasta and just before pasta is cooked put some cavelo nero cabbage in with it...just a few minutes. Put it all in an oven proof dish and dot with goats cheese (or feta), sprinkle with Parmesan and pop in oven for 15-20 mins.

I can tolerate pasta ok, but it's not my favourite food, so I just have a little and more of the cabbage...which I love and then plenty of pasta for everyone else. 🙂
 
Well, after having a Gregg's sausage roll when out in town, I can't be bothered to cook so I'm having pate on toast now.
 
I'm having new potatoes, fishfingers, corn and macaroni cheese. I don't care. I don't have any strips so I won't know the damage will I? I'm feeling bolshy despite Paul McKenna. Strips should be here day after tomorrow, so I'll get back to it then. Must make sure I have some always in hand.
 
Quorn "gammon" and pineapple with roasted green pepper, portobello mushroom and baby plum tomatoes and steamed baby broccoli followed by strawberries, raspberries and full fat creme fraiche.
 
I've had a pork steak, new potatoes and mixed veg 🙂 Followed up by four squares of Lindt seasalt chocolate 😱

My insulin sensitivity has been outrageous today - despite reducing my lunchtime insulin dose in preparation for some gardening, I ended up needing 6 jelly babies, a banana, an apple and some chocolate, so over twice the carbs I thought I had bolused for 😱

I have just consumed this and it was quite wonderful. We have been living on salads for the past couple of weeks and it was nice to have a change, finished off by two squares of Lidl 81% chocolate which is divine.
 
Cold Arbroath Smokies (bought from the Killin Highland Games yesterday) lettuce, walnuts, half an avacado, broad beans and a salad cream dressing.
Do you know something I'm in Arbroath at least once a month but have never tried a smokie 😱 x
