It get's better, my first ever order from Joe's sausages just arrived! Just need to decide what to have for dinner! Will switch to mix2max and have a red evening meal!

 

[Debridger]

oooh, look at you....or save them for a super red Thursday

 

[Flippy]

Had sausages, bacon, scrambled egg, fried mushrooms, peppers, onions and tomatoes (1.5 syns for 1 tbsp ketchup and a butter bud).

Had a jaffa cake earlier (2 syns) and just had a shape apple crumble yogurt (0.5 syns) and green and blacks hot chocolate (hexa and 1 syn).

 

[Debridger]

Good going, and how were the sausages?

Good going, and how were the sausages?

Really tasty but a bit chewy, might experiment with how to cook them, I grilled then might try frying them. Should be lovely in a casserole!

 

[Flippy]

Also had a small slice of banana cake (5 syns) and a mini dairy milk (4 syns) last night.

[Flippy]

Made an apple crumble and had some with a mini milk (6.5 syns), yummy!

 

[Debridger]

Mmmmm looks tasty - I love courgettes - make a mean risotto with them

Not a massive fan or courgettes by themselves but like them in things and they do add bulk! Now risotto is something so really should make, would probably do a butternut squash one, yum! Thing is pre SW I used to add a lot of butter, like 70g and lots of cheese at the end, for a 2 serving risotto! Can you make it creamy and syn less?

 

[Debridger]

Well, if you make it, stirring all the time, using arborio rice, little stock at a time it goes creamy anyway.
You could add your HEA of Philly or laughing cow at the end for richness
