Lianna's Journey to one six eight

I tend to freeze soup when i make it x

Now thats what I call forward planning - well done Lianna. Looks good

Wow Lianna looks fab! I normally freeze dishes whenever I can as I cook for myself, so if I can freeze it I will!

What soups do you make x

I am completely knakered now lol maybe next time ill just make one dish for my tea then freeze the rest rather than going all out and cooking all night x

Any veg thats about but usually toms, carrots, peppers and potatoes as my daughters love that combo and I leave it chunky x

Ooo I love a good cook up. I try to spend a few hours every other Sunday making stuff!

I mainly do:

Mediterranean chicken
Caribbean chicken stew
Choke curry
Bolognese
Chilli
Fish pie
Spicy Italian broth
Pepper beef

Takes me a few hours but means I don't have to cook do much during the week & I almost always have something to take to work in my food flask!

Ohh whats the carribean one??

I obviously meant Chicken Curry not Choke Curry

The Carribean Stew is in the All in One Cookbook. Its really easy and can be done in the slow cooker as well, so perfect to chuck in before you go to work.

For 4 people

4 chicken breasts, cut up into pieces
2 onionsm chopped
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
200g button mushrooms
200g cherry tomatoes
1 red pepper chopped
1 yellow pepper chopped
Chicken stock to cover
2 tablespoons jerk seasoning
2 tablespoons all purpose seasoning
A Scotch bonnet pepper finely chopped (if you dare!)

Chuck everything in a casserole dish or in the slow cooker and cover., Cook at 180c for 90 mins or on low for 6-8 hours.
