@DCUKMod my sister lives in Cambodia and while I can’t claim to have tried it (way too much of a coward), one of the local delicacies is to eat chicken embryos from the shell
Oh yuk and double yuk!
Dinner was another slow cooker winner. Beef short rib. Followed by the whipped creamy cheese chocolate mousse and some salted almonds.
Hope everyone is doing okay and Julie is on the mend soon @ianpspurs.
After my post on Monday, we ended up with more stress. Mr B's vision got worse on Monday evening and he had more pain than usual. He got himself in quite a state and has only just started to calm down now. After seeking advice, it would seem that he has developed a sensitivity to the iodine they use. This has delayed his recovery from the injections and made him panic. Rest and using shed loads of lubricating eye drops has helped hugely and he's almost back to normal.
Anyway, today's menu has looked like this:
Breakfast: Coffee and cream
Mid morning: Almond milk cappuccino with a splash of cream
Lunch: Tomato, basil and radicchio salad, mortadella, provolone piccante, emmental. Baton of Hotel Chocolat 85% choc.
Afternoon: Almond milk cappuccino with a splash of cream. Square of a Green & Blacks Velvet Mint choc.
Dinner: Just about to have halloumi with roast pepper, aubergine and courgettes. Followed by decaf coffee.
I haven’t been able to get the M&S whipped creamy cheese for at least a week, I was going to ask if you’d experienced problems but it looks like you can still find it.

It’s not as widely available as it was. My local store in Greenwich no longer has it, but the branch near work does. Since it has a long shelf life I buy a few at a time and keep it in stock.
Dinner: ‘meatzza’ (100% beef burger rolled flat and topped with sour cream, cherry tomatoes, mushrooms and cheese) with cauliflower and broccoli salad followed by SF jelly, cream and LC chocolate granola.
If only you liked cheeseEvening all
B: usual peanut & chocolate protein bar with coffee
L; 100g mature cheddar cheese and then 2 squares green & blacks mint chocolate with coffee
D: hollowed out and roasted a courgette and then stuffed with minced beef, red pepper, tomato, mushrooms, a little tex-mex seasoning and then melted cheese on top
I have a spare one in the fridge which I’ll have for tomorrow’s lunch. First time I’ve made them, loved themThat’s exactly what I’ve planned for tomorrow’s dinner. I also prefer the sour cream topping to tomato puree.
Ah, you use Lloyd Grosman sauces too. So I am not the only one.Lloyd Grossman beef bolognaise with cheese n chickpea pasta.
Made an Almond Cake with cocoa +desiccated coconut.
