I’m making use of my slow cooker this week…now that we’re friends. Thank you timer switch!
Monday: slow cooker jacket potatoes with coleslaw and grated cheese (next time I’ll cook on high, they weren’t all quite cooked through after being on low)
Tuesday: Chicken tenders (pre-prepared from freezer) with salad
Wednesday: Pumpkin and haloumi salad
Thursday: Slow cooker German roast beef (made with gravy beef, because that’s what I could get), veggies
Friday: Fend For Yourself Friday
Saturday: Homemade pizza
Sunday: Slow cooker chicken nachos
In my head I have fancy thoughts about making pumpkin bars again (they were so good!). In real life it probably won’t happen because I’m into report writing for the end of the year.
