Beef casserole with a baked potato today.

Just having me first cuppa and chilling  got my thinking cap on    

Polpettone for us today simmered in tomato sauce with sauteed potatoes.

See Here

Barnsley lamb chops and salad.

Creamy Tomato & Herb pasta bake with Courgettes and Cheese; and accompanied by butter-flied and pan-fried Breast of Chicken.

Good old fish and chips.  Yes we do have them. Best eaten out of the paper 

I sometimes (or often) eat fairly unhealthily. Today was one of those days. It was:

BirdsEye Chicken Chargrills, frozen chips, half a dozen frozen battered onion rings and a small tin of baked beans. When I say 'frozen' I mean cooked from frozen of course. :)

I'll have to do quite a bit of brisk walking or bike-riding to counteract that lot.

Mart my hubby had a heart attack a few weeks ago and stents fitted . I have been quite strict with his diet but today we had a splurge and why not 

Don't know whether to go out to Southport for a Chinese lunch, or to stay home a make a Biryani for me and baked Salmon fillet for my lovely wife.

Goldie, following my first heart attacks in 1999 I was seen by a dietician (I was a bit fat) and given a quite strict, but fair, diet to follow. At the end of the consultation she said "and once a week but not more often, forget all of this and eat to enjoy yourself."

Today my dinner is the other half of the casserole made yesterday served with herb dumplings.

To-night i have had 4 thick slices of Lambs Liver 2 large sausage,and mashed potato.
The Liver came from Tesco and is very cheap i usually buy 2 full Livers and slice it myself
2 large Livers for £2-40 good value.

Malcolm when we go to Southport we have our lunch in the Swan next to the Bold Hotel on Lord St.--very good value try the fish without batter.

We had a good hot stew today.....

We've been going to the Bold for more than twenty years Jim, but never been in the Swan, but I think e may give it a try...thanks !

Simple meatless dinner today: pasta (haven't decided which, yet) with a cheese & tomato sauce made from my own recipe simple tomato sauce (detailed elsewhere) with small (1cm) cubes of extra mature Cheddar cheese added at the last minute so it is just melting when poured over the pasta. Important not to over-mix the cheese. The idea is to have strings to wrap around your fork.

Malcolm-the Bold has been refurbished and very expensive--i was caught out a few months ago --the swan is down the alley-way at the side of the Bold--as you go in turn left better seating. :;smile:
