Toad in the hole tonight

Same again as last night. With apple crumble and custard for afters.

I've got my MINCE book out and bought some Pork and beef mince. This afternoon I am going to give the American Meat Loaf a try as the yanks seem to rave about it. Checked all the ingredients and only need to buy some nutmeg and a jar of red  peppers in oil which I spotted at Aldi.

That’s something I’ve been meaning to try, let us know what you think to it Vinny.

The Yanks also have something they call Italian sausage which seems a little different than ours. I've been meaning to have a go at making, meatball style rather than in casings though.

Tonight it is slow cooker beef casserole/stew because the oven element went bang in the middle of cooking dinner last night. Thank goodness for microwaves. I was going to make dumplings with the stew - I adore dumplings - but P is on a 'diet' to loose a few pounds, so its boiled potatoes and veg I might sneak in a dumpling just for me, but hey I need to loose those few pounds too. It all depends whether the guilt kicks in.

Looks like I have a WHOLE American Meat Loaf to get through.

OH doesn't like it and I think its wonderful, so that's not so bad.
