The Mock Turtle

That also sounds good and maybe I could make a batch for lunches instead of constantly eating eggs. Although my advent Scotch eggs arrive on Wednesday, as foretold by the archangel.

This egg turnaround never fails to astound me.

I am literally rousing Monk now because I want him to walk to the shop with me to pick up eggs for croque madams.

I have a lot of lost egg years to make up.

OH NOW I WANT A CROQUE MADAME PLEASE.

I ended up with a simple yet delicious monsieur.

Many women's dream.

I am now spinning off into a reverie of a Francesinha.

I just had to google that! It sounds weird. What is the beer sauce like?

It is definitely weird and only to be tackled when either hungover or very cold after a long walk. It was just like a rich tomato soup as far as I remember with a back note of bean juice on the finish.

No that doesn't appeal to me at all. It's too meaty and I don't like tomato soup. However, I could totally get with a chip, battered sausage and wally butty with poutine poured all over it so I'm not against the idea.

Oh my god, I think I'm an actual genius! I need to make this!

Leek, kale, stilton tagliatelle
Shredded duck fried rice
Whole roasted cauliflower maybe

This was ok. You could easily do sliced onion rather than shallots.

We have friends staying this weekend so it’s pizza Friday night then curries on Saturday.

ROW is
Mediterranean chickpea pancakes
Fajitas
Gazpacho
Creamy new potato, cauliflower and turmeric bake
Broccoli katsu curry
Garlic and pak choi fried rice

I solved my swede issue by cancelling my veg box. However it means I am now totally shit at meal planning and I need to just raid the fruit and veg shop of tasty looking things once a week and pretend it's a veg box delivery.

Spaghetti on toast
Soy-roasted broccoli green curry
Cajun-spiced potatoes, sausage and corn-on-the-cob
Greek salad with air-fried falafel
Spag bol
JP and beans

Leek and taleggio risotto
Italian sausages with parnsip, potato & porcini gratin
Broccoli anchovy pasta

Need inspration for courgettes. I was thinking courgette fries but then what do you have them with?!

Oh maybe I could make frittata with them as I've also got millions of eggs.

Frittata is on the menu here this week. Indian spiced potato one topped with fresh coriander and spring onions.

Other meals will be:

Burgers and chips
Jamie O’s blackened chicken with San Fran salad
Parma ham and lemon chilli tomato spag with rocket
Chilli beef mince noodles
Chicken Pho
Something involving pork steaks

I lke the sound of your frittata.

Steak and chips
Shepherds pie

Giant spring rolls (they’re filled tortillas)
Stir fry and noodles
Burrito bowls
Sausages, Cajun spiced potatoes, roasted veg
JPs with curried peas or baked beans

Everything else is a mission to eat food from the freezer!

Winter Waldorf salad
Crispy Persian fried rice
Possibly takeaway pizza
Christmas dinner
Leftovers/Christmas rubbish
Fake chicken burger
Aubergine tandoori drumsticks

I need to plan I seem to have loads of vegetables and no ideas.
