Meal Planning Monday – 29th April 2013

29 April 2013 5 comments

I do find meal planning a bit of a slog.  I usually sit down on a Sunday with my Slow Cooker Books and start trawling for recipes and making my shopping list.  Sometimes I wish I was one of those people who had a set menu every week but always keen to try new recipes. [...]

I’m stuck in this limbo between Winter and Spring.  I know it’s supposed to be Spring but I kept finding myself still choosing winter comfort food when planning my meals this week; Two Bean Chilli, Sausage and Puy Lentils and Spaghetti Bolognaise. I’ve never made the Salt Cod before and in truth I’m using up [...]

My daughter has now been off school for 18 days!  18 WHOLE DAYS!  I’m gagging for her to get back to school tomorrow and a semblance of a routine restored.  Her school had an inset today (just what we needed after two weeks off),  but  she was still supposed to go to child-care but threw [...]

Just sitting around on Easter Monday waiting for my groceries to be delivered so I thought I’d post about my weekly meal plan.  My handwriting really is appalling! We’ve done nothing but eat all weekend, so tonight we are just having soup for dinner.  I really can’t face much more than that. As it’s school holidays [...]

This week’s meals have been inspired by the weather.  I can’t believe the difference between now and this time last year! As always, I will predominantly be using my Slow Cooker and am looking forward to trying some new recipes.  I’m not convinced about the Marmalade Oxtail but always willing to have a go.  I [...]

Meal Planning Monday: Irish Stew, Steak and a few others

Who said it was spring!  Our poor daffodils that came up on the weekend have gone into shock.  I just went to Morrison’s for my weekly shop and was hit by a freak blizzard! Anyhow, other than the weather it’s a pretty normal week around here.  Now that hubby is working from home I’m putting [...]

Introducing My New Slow Cooker Blog

10 March 2013 0 comments

I finally decided to take the plunge and start a new blog just for my slow cooker recipes. I was very conscious that I may be confusing my readers. Those who subscribed just for recipes may not be interested in my parenting antics and those who were coming to laugh at my parenting ability (or [...]
