TUESDAY

Fish in a bag with steamed vegetables

A classic French style en papilotte dish that basically means “cooked in a bag”.  This method allows the food to hold in moisture and flavour as it steams inside it’s little pouch and it’s a clean and healthy way of cooking fish. Cook by simply topping the fish with a little olive oil, a hint of sea salt, slice of lemon and a little thyme.  Serve with a fresh leaf salad, oven roasted sweet potato chunky chips or steamed green vegetables and squeeze of lemon.

SATURDAY

Tuna Mornay on toast

Traditionally Tuna Mornay ist not served with potato chips, but to me it just isn’t the same without them, I know it’s not a healthy options…. but I do continue to serve them with crushed BBQ chips on top.  I also like to add in small spiral pasta, makes the dish go further, my recipe usually makes enough so I can have left overs the next day for lunch!

SUNDAY

Curried sausages with rice

This is a childhood favourite of mine.  My nan used to add whole boiled eggs to this recipe and it was so fun to find it amongst the sausages.  Omit the boiled egg if you prefer.

BAKING

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

These cookies are crunchy on the outside, the merest hint of chewy in the middle, the raisins are plump and kind of caramelised on the outer edges, and the whole thing has a subtle spice flavour.

Zucchini Chocolate Brownies

I’ve made these several times now, they are so so good.  It uses 2 zucchini, however I only had one in the fridge this week so I used 1 zucchini and 1 apple, still tasted really good.
