We had stir-fry with beef, broccoli and portobello mushrooms - with rice.

That sounds really yummy (it's been ages since I've had "real" breakfast food!).

Yeah, it was great. I love making proper Southern-style hash browns. I have a system down where I grate the potato, salt it, then squeeze the excess liquid off, then dry with kitchen towels before frying so they get crispier. Just like IHOP!  :P

I just had a stroke of genius and plan on turning last nights pasta and ghoulash-y sauce into a Spicy Chicken Baked Macaroni and Cheese dish.

A gnocchi bake that turned out to be kinda  :-X.  I don't know what I did, but it was not nice!

It's chilly and rainy so it's potato soup for supper!
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

Nothing healthy - comfort food all the way here tonight.  Pork & Bramley apple sausages.  Tarted-up colcannon - I fried up a few bacon lardons for it, and added some cheese.  Yum yum!

Yesterday I made a bolognese sauce with fresh tomatoes and onions from FIL's garden. It took a few hours to make, but oh my, that was the best dang spag bol I've ever eaten, if I do say so myself!  ;D Plus, I used up all the tomatoes (for now, I'm sure FIL will give me more once he finds out I managed to use all of those.  ;)) I should really figure out how to do some canning so I can make loads and loads of that next year to store in the cupboards!

No idea what's on for tonight... haven't thought that far ahead.  :-\\\\

But this sounds divine!  :o

Homemade fish and chips with peas.  I'm so looking forward to it!  It'll be nice to have a safe bet on the table after that complete failure I made last night!  ;)
