    As Winter approaches, the time has come to get into some heat food. I made cheesy chilli nachos today. Decent steak mince. Loads of chilli powder, scotch bonnet chilli, onions, red pepper, chopped tomatoes and red kidney beans.

    Nachos in the bowl. Mozzarella on top. Dump the chilli over it and then more cheese on top of that. Melt it under the grill.

    Up very early today for the get ready for school routine. At 6.15am (way ahead of the game) I had two mini Chocolate chip muffins with some OJ.

    Brunch was sausages and chips with wholewheat brown bread. Dinner for Mrs G was some more cheesy chilli nachos again as she loves it. A couple of portions gone into the freezer too. Ms G had a chicken fillet, mash and gravy cooked from scratch. The leftover mash will hang on my dinner plate with mushy peas and a sirloin cooked later. Gravy too.

    Having a cold beer now.

    edit: mmm, tasty. although noble locks didn't really like hers. she's fussy, i get leftover lamb shank for lunch tomorrow.

    Very bold this morning. Sausage, hash brown and a fried egg on fried bread.:eek:

    Wot, no black pudding ? There has to be black pudding ! Poached egg, hash brown and black pudding is yum.

    Side note, after years struggling and failing with poaching eggs, have finally sorted how to keep the white together . Use a small sandwich/freezer bag, crack the egg into it and tie it closed. Spray with oil first to keep the egg from sticking. Cling film would also work. Pop into boiling water for about two minutes and a nice soft poached egg.

    I'm actually sick and tired of black pudding over the last few months. Fooking really sick of it.:D I poach eggs in a little rubber container I bought in Homestore and more. Crack the egg into it and place in a pot of boiling water. Few mins and job done. Love a poached egg!

    Monkfish and prawn thai green curry with rice and chips. It's a treat every now and again courtesy of the chef that works for the famous hoteliers the Brennan brothers.

    Enjoyed with the last of the summer wine that was made from the gorse flowers that grow around the back of our house, there'll be an awful lot more of that wine made next summer with God's holy help.

    Went with some spicy spiralled veg (carrot parsnip) mushroom onion, some sweet potato home fries and spicy tofu (first time cooking this at home and think it will be on my weekly shop from now on)
    Washed down with a half pint of dublins finest (tap water)

    Lamb shanks are the food of the God's, what you just had there would be a serious contender for my last meal on death row.

    If I ever end up on death row and am offered my choice of my last meal that is.

    You get the picture, also I think you could do a lot worse than noble locks.

    It's a bit like a Sauvigon Blanc with a hint of almond/granny smith type flavour to it.

    Second Friday on the trot for a hot spicy beef dish with rice and maybe some chips too. Homemade. A really great follow up to some ice cold beers which are being supped....starting now.:D

    Venison burger and chips with a cold can of Cullen's cider and then a gooey Lidl chocolate doughnut to round it off.

    Every muscle in my body is aching from work but I couldn't be happier and I'll be up before dawn tomorrow looking for more venison.

    One of those savage days I'm afraid.:eek:

    A sausage toastie and OJ for breakfast. Homemade burger (keep a stock in the freezer) and chips for lunch with a Lucozade zero. Nibbled on different kinds of chocolate all day. Eyeing up the last of my spicy beef stir fry from last night. May have it later. Now to beer or not to beer.:D

    Pizza and garlic bread.

    529644.jpg

    Don't mind the burnedy one, that's how the OH likes em, disgracefully. All meat as well, chorizo and rashers.

    The soft base was lovely on the chicken one, and onion and peppers cooked nicely without getting charred.

    I love a load of sauce with garlic and fresh basil. I think when I reheat the leftovers tomorrow I'm going to put sheep's cheese on it because honestly it's the weekend so who cares.

    I love burnty pizza, same with toast .
    I'm starving but can't get off the couch due to pure laziness, I have 2 of the Saturday pizzas that are always recommended on the Aldi thread ,frozen chips and garlic bread, I'll try to haul myself up and throw them in the oven. The red wine has been poured.
