For those of you that might like it, here is the recipe for the Creamy Coriander and Minted Chicken...as I said will let you know what I think of it later xxxxx

 

[Lily42uk]

Hi everyone, just a quickie cos off to spend a lovely evening with Mal, but had to say...if you want something new to try, you have to give that Creamy Coriander and Minted Chicken a go, it's to die for, especially if you like a curry...I don't normally bother buying things like the cinammon sticks and cloves but we have a new shop that sells them a lot cheaper than any of the big supermarkets and so I splashed out ...I love herbs and spices anyways and have 3 spice racks now and still not enough space to fit them all on lol...anyways as I was saying, I can highly recommend it....my daughter has so far had it with Roast veg and rice and today Mal and I had it with Roast potatoes and veg...I am stuffed and it's free too and the taste omg ..anyway I am off ...catch you all later :bighug: xxxx

 

[Purple Patsy]

Sorry you had a gain (me too) but since it has got you back on track maybe it was worth it.

The recipe looks fab and I've just printed it out to give it a go.

Hope your night was even better than you hoped it would be. Cos you deserve it for being such an inspiration.

 

[EmmyR1984]

It sounds divine

Have a lovely evening xxx

 

[tillymax]

Lily I haven't got time to read it all so if anythings dramatic has happened can someone let me know.

Glad your C has got your mind back in the game. It's hard after Christmas but it will be summer before we know it and we don't want to feel all hot and sweaty and uncomfortable.

 

[Roziee]

Suppers sound yum. Have everything apart from coriander and mint so will get some and try it at the weekend x

 

[LittleFlutterby]

Hey sweetie, that's ok you have your life to live if ya pop in now and again and say hello that's brilliant :hug99:

Hope the dreaded lurgy goes soon :bighug:, Mal has just broken out in a stinking cold, bet your life I get it now :sigh:

I am really fine with the gain, I needed it to make me stop faffing about, I too am filling in SAS forms and just about everything else to make sure I stay on plan this week...I am determined that 4.5lb is going this week and the whole 9.5lb gain since xmas will be gone by the end of the month if I have my way :bighug:
You take care now, my little chickadee ...you make your minimins mummy very proud xxxx
