Good luck JJB, photo please

Nothing really spectacular Danny, I have to admit to using a kit.  We found it a bit fiery even though the box said mild.  Served with creme fraish and veg that I had to hand. The beans were lovely, why haven't I done this before
I shall make it from scratch next time though.
  

It was all about the beans, glad they were good. Loved the addition of the sprouts

Sprouts were all I had, salad and I don't mix in winter. Beans and sprouts, it might be an eventful evening

Making this again today     along with mushy peas I've got  in the slow cooker.

This is a bit like a recipe of 2 Sheds I used in the harvest festival only the colours looked pretty drab with my camera (basic phone cost £17 five years ago). There was a whole post of bean recipes by 2 Sheds but they disappeared when the old site was done over. I didn't make a note of what exactly she suggested but I use 200g beans and 150g lentils for about 8 portions with about 2lb of potatoes for the top. Tomatoes, garlic and onions are my base for a lot of things. I don't generally like marmite but it is an essential ingredient.

It didn't get any votes, but then nobody tasted it (except me and my wife).

Leftover chicken & chorizo rice with onions and trusty side salad.

Same as last night because it didn’t happen last night.
 The ingredients didn’t arrive until nearly 8pm (click & collect shopping order , first one of the year! It was very exciting )   . 

Last night turned into bacon butty for me & nachos for him.

Veggie and bean soup today along with a slice or 2 of sourdough.

Grilled marinated lamb chops steamed potatoes and baked beans. The lamb chops were marinated in a shawarma rub, delicious

Pizza chips and trusty side salad

Left over roast pork, undecided whether it will be 'chinesey' with veg stir fry or sliced and traditional with veg.

Homemade pizza with a choice of toppings, garlic & herb wedges, jalapeño poppers & salad.
Followed by banoffee pie.
