Hey everyone,
Basically, (bare with me, im about to start rambleing!).. whilst at the spa last week, i was reading er, think it was womans own.. and it had ainsley harriot and series of different recipes, now i wasn't really paying attention but there was one picture that stuck out in my mind, it looked amazing!
it was chopped up lentil and carrot, witha few chopped kidney beans, in a cous cous and topped with chicken, Oh yes. It looked divine.
Now my question is, firstly,, i dont like flavoured cous cous, or atleast iv never found one i like, secound, do lentils taste like crap? and does anyone have any suggestions on how to make it really really yummy instead of really really tastless.
I usually rely on swartz to help me in a time like this, but now im a bum i should put more effort into creating my own sauces and spices..
So for those of you who are a whiz in the kitchen, help me! .. my sister comes over for tea on tuesday and since being pregnant shes like the devil, always hungry, never satisfied and ALWAYS has somthing to complain about. So i'd like to cook her somthing that looks good and she wont brand 'diet food' .. - everytime i feed her somting she eats a bar of chocky after, even if its the biggest meal she's ever had, just cause she knows it'd be sw friendly! LOL
xxxxx help me!! xxxxxxx
