Yesterday, while working very hard outside I decided we needed a quick lunch
Something simple yet filling.
So I picked more tomatoes off the vines and got some oregano from the herb garden
Cooked them up until just soft and added a jar of the roast vegetable purée I made a few weeks ago.
This is what it looked like.
Cooked the pasta and stirred through. Added a generous amount of Parmesan cheese and lunch was ready.
It tasted good. And the left over were eaten today by hubby and wonderson for their lunch.
Meanwhile today I cooked up some more of the zucchini pickles
And made a coconut cake, the recipe came up on my newsfeed on Facebook.
I doubled the recipe and made them in two loaf tins so that should keep the boys happy for a few days at least
The silverbeet is coming to the end of its long life so I picked the best leaves.
I also needed to use some eggs as the girls have been busy laying.
A Greek spinach pie was exactly what Was needed to use them up
I had a piece with a cup of tea. Delish
Dinner tonight is chicken and mushrooms. I’ve got it cooking in the oven now
Hubby got up around midnight to do a few loads in a truck. So he’ll want dinner early
And he’ll probably be in bed soon after.
A good day of using up produce to make yummy food for us to enjoy.
I went to the pool today and did an hour and a half of exercise.
I think the rest of the afternoon I’ll be working on finishing my socks.
The burst of energy is now complete.
You are so productive. I made toast today.
ReplyDeleteDo you want any jars? I can save them for you if you do.
Thank you. Yes please. The smaller ones are better, like the jam jar size.
DeleteChicken ...yuuummmm. You can keep the mushrooms though. F cooks that stuff and i just want the chicken. Xxx Mr T
ReplyDeleteOops O think F deleted the comment rather than publish. It was and expression of admiration for chicken and fungi (or at least admiration od chicken). Xxx Mr T
ReplyDeleteI do that all the time lol
DeleteThe chicken and fungi was a hit again. Not much left at all
Good to see what you make with your preserves. You've been very busy again!
ReplyDeleteHave to make hay while the sun shines I guess. I’ll rest in winter
DeleteEverything looks SO Delicious!! Well done!

When I get the urge to cook I cook lots.
DeleteDo you want to pop by my place and cook me up some of those dishes? Canada isn't THAT far away from Australia.
ReplyDeleteI’d love to visit Canada one day. We could have a cook off lol
DeleteWhat great food you make for your family. All if this looks terrific. Especially spinach pie.
ReplyDeleteThank you. Even though I cheat and use packaged puff pasty these days. The boys will have it for their lunch today
