Dinner

A sort of 70s style prawn cocktail as a main course. 😋

Yeah, I would have never believed it either!

Lovely jubbly - I had a similar dinner last weekend - also channeling the 70s 😆Prawns, Avocado, Mayo on a bed of Romaine lettuce 😋

This is why I don't share photos. Shamed by those who have food styling skills.

[Professor-Yaffle]

Yum - So retro! For some (stylistic - not dietary) reason I strongly feel there should also be a devilled egg on the plate 😆

[Subtle_badger in reply to Professor-Yaffle]

There would have been, except the last egg was sacrificed to make the mayo!

God, I love prawn cocktail.

[Subtle_badger in reply to Hidden]

It was very hard not to buy prawns today and make another batch!

[Hidden in reply to Subtle_badger]

Sadly, prawns are ludicrously expensive, here, so it's a rare treat. I had it a the starter when out to dinner last night, but could easily do as a main course. Yummo.

[Subtle_badger in reply to Hidden]

And you are (if I remember correctly) on an island.

Nothing makes sense these days.

One of my main go to lunch options, other than cheese omelette or tuna salad. Can’t beat a good prawn cocktail salad.

[Subtle_badger]

Last night, lamb steaks cooked with garlic and rosemary, served with san marzano tomatoes and a fuerte avocado. HM mayonnaise

[Professor-Yaffle in reply to Subtle_badger]

The avocado looks perfectly ripe!

[Subtle_badger in reply to Professor-Yaffle]

It was. I had plans to go out, but the moment I found my avocado was ripe, I cancelled!

Tonight's dinner was kielbasa and sauerkraut, accompanied buy asparagus, and avocado with tomato.

No photos, because I don't style every thing I eat, and I don't need anyone's love to enjoy my dinner.

[Professor-Yaffle in reply to Subtle_badger]

Nice. Kielbasa 😋

I have been steaming a massive amount of asparagus and boiling eggs this morning, ready for weekday lunches. I have also made my salad dressing for the week - roasted red pepper and mint with lots of olive oil and a little bit of garlic. A bit more carby than my usual weekday dressings but had red pepper and garlic to use up.

This afternoon i'm making a massive pot of chicken and vegetable soup for individual freezer portions. I use a whole roast chicken and I don't usually put the skin in the soup because it goes flabby. I end up eating most of the crispy skin straight from the oven so it's quite a special day for me!

I'm going to be eating a lot of anchovies this week as I feel particularly drawn to them lately and I really like them with asparagus which is pretty abundant right now.

(I only had black sesame seeds, that's why there seems to be frog spawn in the mayonnaise 😳)

Looks lovely. The frog spawn mayo would match nicely with the toad in the hole.
