Hi, it's really easy. I have a very large deep wok, I chuck in approx 1kg bag of frozen broccoli, add 3-4pints of chicken stock, bring to the boil. Then add stilton, as much or as little as you like, maybe some cream if you want, then blend. Does me about 10 portions. I bought some Addis containers so i can portion it and freeze some and I take them to work in those to microwave for lunch.
 
Very strange experience today. In a meeting all day and only took cheese and nuts. No liquid provided but loads of sweets!! Anyway, over-ran by ages and I thought I was gonna faint. Had 2 jelly babies (still within my 50g of carbs) and perked up no end!!!

Sorry to hear BP, hope it moves on soon and you're back to your feeding.

This morning spent time Roasting Bell Peppers, (first time) and making baba G.... which actually is looking a bit odd... aubergines seem an odd texture.... going to get pulped anyway....

Lovely autumn morning round here, so going for a walk before work...
