Poached chicken salad –”This is a classic chicken salad found in virtually every Vietnamese restaurant in France.

Last weeks meal plan:

Thurs – Honey Mustard Pork Tenderloin with Roast Potatoes and Veg
Fri – Oven Baked Lemon Butter Fish with Potato and Sweet Potato Mash and Veg
Sat – Creamy Tomato Chicken Pasta (Brown 500g chicken, add in mushrooms. Stir in a jar of tomato pesto – I usually use Barilla Sundried Tomato Pesto – and a 250ml tub of Philly ‘Cream for Cooking’, then add baby spinach and 2 cups cooked pasta. Serve with a sprinkle of parmesan cheese if you like)

I’ve have two weeks in a row where I’m home with one of my man-people. One was away last week, the other away this week. So…lamb shanks have been on the menu. So expensive for a family of five, but so yum and way cheaper when you’re only feeding two! This week we’re having:

Monday: pan fried barramundi with caesar style salad (Barra frozen from Aldi is only $17/kg)
Tuesday: chicken kebabs and caesar style salad (kebabs also from Aldi – very yummy)
Wednesday: Lamb shanks with sweet potato mash (recipe from 9Honey)
Thursday: Soup and garlic bread
Friday: fend for yourself
Saturday: Homemade pizza…or maybe we’ll buy dinner…
Sunday: roast chicken & vegies
Of course, we’re baking Anzac biscuits this week. We’ll probably have that as a slice, so they’re braces-friendly for my son.

My daughter makes these cookies for us and we all My daughter makes these cookies for us and we all love them so. I LOVE ROCKY ROAD, and these have all those yummy flavours in a cookie! They are a perfect treat in the afternoon when I sit down with a cuppa, I do love the crunch of the nuts and gooeyness of the marshmallow. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The cookies freeze really well for eating later, but I must admit we tend to polish off the batch pretty quickly and they very rarely make it to the freezer in our home. I am planning on doing a big baking day soon to stock my freezer with snacks, these cookies would make a lovely once in a while, lunchbox treat if your child attends a school that allows nuts 🥜 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The recipe is on my blog, or just swipe up in my stories! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
