Sick of carrying 2 hitch hikers about, so this is my diary

Hi Jane,
We used to use left over veg and tatties for B&S too, but yesterday I had none so used grated carrots, cabbage and onions was lovely...yes do try the skins they are better than any I have had anywhere else very yummy xx
 
Lily here is the recipe for the soup you can add pumpkin to the soup aswell if you like pumpkin and cook it the same way as the celery.

Celery and Bacon Soup syn free

1 bunch of celery
3-4 slices of bacon
1 chicken stock in a pint of water
Salt and pepper
Mixed herbs
125ml skim milk optional makes it creamy

Bring your water with the stock cube to boiling point, add the celery, bacon, herbs, salt and pepper in the pan, you can fry the bacon first with fry light to brown it off (optional), then turn down to simmer till celery is soft, turn off heat let it go cold, blend the lot in a blender add the milk, then return to the heat or store in a container.

That sounds right up my alley yum, do I take out the celery if I am going to use Pumpkin? I love pumpkin anyone who hasn't tried it definitely should, it's scrumptious and seeing as my C hasn't bothered to reply to me, I shall be doing some :whoopass: tomorrow for sure :8855:, then it will be a good substitute for the pumpkin and walnut soup I was hoping to make...so thank you hunni xx

Seriously your family/friends are being a bit evil plonking you in the middle of cake mountains all the while! :eek:

I made this beef and pumpkin stew for tea yesterday and it's really lovely Beef and Pumpkin Stew recipe | Pumpkin Recipes

I didn't bother with the oil, subbed splenda for the sugar, added a tsp of italian herbs and left out the potatoes 'cause I was having a red day. Once I had everything in the pan I brought it up to boiling than transferred it into a pyrex dish and cooked it for about 2.5 hrs in the oven on 160C - it went really thick and yummy as the pumpkin kinda melts into the sauce and the beef was really tender. Would also work in the slow cooker I guess :)

Here's how mine turned out: Beef & pumpkin stew.jpg
 
Yum that looks amazing hun, I will definitely be trying that one.
No I told my family not to put it away...I want to be able to control myself and 99% of the time I do..it's not realistic to have to hide everything away from me and it's not realistic to not have any of it in the house...although if I had my way they wouldn't have any of that fatty rubbish in my house, but then again it's their lives so they get to choose, if I eat at the right times and in the right way which i normally do I am not in the least bit tempted, obviously at first it wasn't so easy, but then I got used to my way of eating, can definitely see and feel the benefits and the other major thing that turns me off all the fatty crap they eat is that the morning after eating all that ..like the cupcake Saturday night....my mouth feels and tastes awful and so does my tummy xxx
