Hey dubs, if its stewing or casserole steak yes perfect for the slow cooker .

You can brown it tonight if you have time, I don't always brown mine sometimes I just fling it in.
But yes brown with some onion and mushrooms if you are using them, and a tsp of any herb you like.
I then throw into slow cooker with veggies
a tsp of marmite,
dash of Worcestershire sauce,
beef oxocube or a stockpot jelly etc
and a little bit of water or a tin of tomatoes if you want a tomatoey base, but not if you want a beefy base. Xx

How's ur day been?

I've had a fab day cos it's my day off. Ha ha. Lots of gardening and sorting out. It's blisteringly hot here so I've got a bit of a tan too whilst digging.

Had no time for brekkie so lunch I had -

2 garlic stuffed olives , 4 baby gherkins, lettuce, tomato, cucumber avocado, egg, potato salad. ( 1 syn for the salad cream in it) Low fat coleslaw (2.5 syns) , ham, grated cheddar (1 hexa) 1 syn for a squidge of mayo

Dinner this evening-
Pasta alla everythinga
-------------------------
So i boiled 1/2 bag of pasta then sauce was made of
- 3 chopped mushrooms, 1/2 red pepper chopped and 1 small onion chopped all into a pan sprayed with fry light , cooked until soft . Added a squidge of tomato purée , a tsp garlic paste and black pepper / salt to taste.
Then I added half a carton of passata .
Yesterday we had a BBQ so we had some chorizo and chicken skewers left over. I chopped them up small and added them to the pasta sauce .
All heated through then poured over pasta and into an ovenproof dish . I added a hexa worth of cheese slices to the top, sprinkled with Italian herbs and baked until cheese melted - served with green salad - yum

Pudding was lemon scan bran cake x
