    Lovely except I had to look up Pizzoccheri as i hadn't heard of it before. I did Rigatori with a sort of alfredo or carbonara garlic sauce in the week. It went down very well.

    Well, the Pizzoccheri worried me because of the cheese, but it didn't affect me. I must admit I did enjoy it.

    Mrs Rebbonk complained that the dish was 'bland'! Yet if I use lots of spices or herbs she complains. - Ho hum, some you win, some you lose!

    I now have half a cabbage to use... colcannon potatoes? (Mrs Rebbonk rather rudely describes that as a Paddy potatoes! Interesting, as I believe my family do come from Southern Ireland.)

    I was just about to add a chef gif, but you posted before I could.
    Looks like me with my big pot of soup, only I use a separate spoon if I need to taste it.

    The Rigatori dish with Pancetta looks like it might be on the table tonight. Either that or chicken fajitas.

    Shepherd's pie and green beans for tonight.

    The pie is already made and will only need browning.

    Oh Yum, I just love shepherd's pie, that is real comfort food. I attempted a Beef Stroganoff yesterday and there's some left so I think its going to get revamped with rice instead of the french fries we had it with.

    Steak and ale pie tonight, with roast potatoes.

    Last night I did a courgette and mushroom frittata. I don't think we'll try it again.

    Tonight I've got a couple of large potatoes for good old jacket spuds.

    Had a friend visit Scotland last week, she brought us back some 'real' scotch pies.

    I guess that'll do nicely for tonight.

    Both children were home for the weekend but both have now returned to their respective corners of the globe; one to Bulgaria on the 0610 flight and the other to Warwickshire at 1pm. We all enjoyed a lovely Chinese takeaway last night and as there was so much of it, we'll be finishing it off tonight. Yum.

    The Scotch pies were ace! Much better than the local stuff, and much more generously filled.

    Chicken tagine for tonight. Already prepared and gently marinading.

    A warm through and a cup of rice to do later...

    Well, the Tagine went down very well.

    Mrs Rebbonk is cooking tonight, she's already made mutterings about corned beef hash.

    I struggled with 5 portions of fruit and veg per day as the daily allowance. Now they are saying it should be 7. How on earth do you get all that into a day's food intake? Also, do potatoes count? I am wondering what to do for dinner tonight and am even more confused by this which isn't helpful.
