Self impressed

I'm very happy with my efforts this morning! I had a lovely sleep in which was well deserved after a busy week. I'd popped to the local farm shop yesterday before work and got a shoulder of lamb, a chicken, bacon, sweet potato, tomatoes and bananas yesterday. So as soon as I got up I put the lamb in the slow cooker with some mint from the garden. 

I made myself bacon, scrambled eggs and tomato for a late breakfast. 

I cooked up the rest of the bacon with some green pepper, shallot, and mushrooms from the freezer.  I kept a bit of the cooked bacon back for something else, but then used the rest of the mix to make a 4-egg omelette. I also added a bit of chopped tomato and a couple of those never ending spinach leaves. The result is breakfast to take to work for the next two mornings!

I assembled two tupperwares of salad using the rest of the salad leaves, some radish which has been in the fridge for ages, chopped pepper, tomato and  cucumber. These are now ready for a lunch to take to work or side salad mix in the week. 

The courgettes have lingered for far too long in the fridge. I've now grated and salted two to possibly make fritters later. Remember that kohl rabi?! I've grated that up too and might use some in fritters and the rest is ready for a stir fry. It tastes like cabbage, so just thought I can add a sprinkle to my salad mixes.

I try to always leave chopped carrot, cucumber & pepper out for the boys to snack on and if it's there they do.

Happy with my efforts. Only just relaxing with my second coffee now and it's after 12:30!

The slow cooking lamb smells delicious. The carrots, potatoes and greens have been prepped already and I even made (non paleo of course!) Yorkshire pudding batter.
