Meal Plan Friday 19th April 2019

Not sure where the last week went, it flew by and the sun has finally come out. We have spent so much time in the garden potting on seedlings and planting some of our own GYO veggies.

 Friday - Scampi and Chips for Mr MC&W and myself. Fish and Chips for the boys each served with peas.

 Saturday - Fajitas for Mr MC&W and myself the boys are having pizza and salad

 Sunday - Roast Lamb but I am not cooking

 Monday - Chicken with Peppers and Feta the boys will have this more as a roast. I do this with chicken breast and cook it for a shorter time.

 Tuesday - Puttanesca baked Gnocchi for us all, I will be playing around with this as anchovies are not every ones first choice

 Wednesday - Salmon with beetroot and lentils. The boys will have tomato soup as its back to school and haircuts

 Thursday - Neapolitan Rice salad I am going to try a version of this with the boys and see how they like it. it is from Gino Healthy Italian

    Very jealous of your ability to grow things. I'm not very green fingered but anything I do grow gets scoffed by hens, so I've pretty much given up!
    You've got some really interesting dinners this week. I fancy trying the salmon and the gnocchi. This is why I'm here, to find new and interesting things to cook 😊
    Thanx

Mint is trying to take over the garden

I  am trying to tidy the garden up. We are a bit tight for money this month and I want to plant lots of bulbs. Instead I am tidying and keeping busy, let's be honest the garden is a weed haven and a total mess so I have a lot to do. Clearing this border however I have made a very important discovery. That mint is trying to take over the world, one border at a time. Two years ago I planted out a very sad and mainly dead supermarket mint plant. I did not think it was going to survive or the consequences of my naive action. It did survive and it did grow and grow. I then cleared the border down that year and the next it came back stronger. This year it was at its finest. Now admittedly I did just let it grow. The children loved the smell as did I. They were picking it, making mud pies with it, it was a source of fun. Then the flowers came out and the bees and pollinators were in heaven the whole border was alive, I had to keep it. I have now dug it u...
