The builders have been in today to do further work on our new conservatory - I didn't realise how time days like these would be.
I have to oversee work, make decisions between me and my fiance who is at work (not here to see things), keep him and my parents updated.
Meanwhile, I am making sure the builders (and I) are fed and watered, my customer's parcels are packed and posted and more importantly, the house is reasonably tidy and the evening meal is on the table. In fact, after writing this all down, it's no wonder I can find it stressful.
I was weeping in to my onions, so I got my onion goggles out!
So today I got the slow cooker out. I just haven't had the time for much pot watching - just to do some simple food prep and pop all the ingredients in.
I have been finding and accumulating a lot of silly priced reduced veg which is perfect for anyone health conscious, so I buy most of them.
This week I have 3 broccolis & 3 cauliflowers to use up, so the solution was simple - a beef & veg curry. Please note you may want to use an alternative vegetable as broccoli and cauliflower will turn mushy. I would normally opt for peppers as they keep their structure but if you like a pulled pork texture, then you will enjoy this.
As I continued to add my spices giving it a taste test through the day, I tended to favour my pot of tikka masala, so I have decided to call it a Beef, Vegetable Tikka Masala Curry - which is estimated as syn free & fat free on a Slimming World plan.
