With the colder evenings, I've been craving comfort food, so I've made some cottage pies, lasagne and a minced beef pie. I also save some of the lasagne bolognaise separate as Eleanor likes it as a sauce instead of it being layered with pasta and white sauce.
It's good to have some meals prepared, I just need to do some vegetables to go with the cottage pies or minced beef pie, or some garlic bread to go with the lasagne.
I'm sure you can tell that I'm not back in to my healthy eating regime yet, I just don't seem able to get myself motivated. I think it's important to really want to do something before you embark on it though, otherwise you'll just end up giving up. The weight I lost earlier on in the year is starting to creep back on so it's important that I get back on board soon.
Now, what to make for tea.
It all looks very impressive - and delicious! :o)
ReplyDeleteWow - you are organised. I make double portions of things like chilli and freeze the extra, but that's about it. Have a lovely evening. JX
ReplyDeleteNow that's what I call super organised. It's a really goo idea to have things ready in the freezer, otherwise takeaways can be a very tempting option!

Seeing all that makes me feel hungry! Flighty xx
ReplyDeleteYou have cooked up a storm. I had a batch cooking session this afternoon - it was nice not to have to go out anywhere today so I took advantage of being in all day. I love having homemade ready meals in the freezer.
ReplyDeleteI think your body tells you what to eat and if it's comfort food so be it. That's my philosophy anyway.
ReplyDeleteLove from Mum

Looks impressive! It's always good to have some reasonable quick meal in store.
ReplyDeleteGood luck in getting back on board, I think you're right about the motivation. But it must also be sought not just awaited, right?
Hi Jo we havent got into our healthy eating regime all year.I put my weight gain down to my anti migraine tablets and I may be fatter but havent had any migraines for a long while so for that I am very grateful!
ReplyDeleteI am exactly the same in that I crave 'comfort' food at this time of year.
When you cook, you cook! I am not nearly so organized.
ReplyDeleteWow! look at all those dishes of food Jo! Can't beat a bit of comfort food, just love it and you sure have plenty there xx
ReplyDeleteI'm very impressed with your organisation, Jo. I always crave comfort food, but can seldom be arsed to make it. Now Violet's at school perhaps I should take a leaf out of your book and get stuffing my freezer.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a lovely weekend.

Now, that is some serious batch cooking! I always intend to do this but never get around to it. Your meals sound perfect for autumn. x
ReplyDeleteThank you for all your lovely comments. They're always very much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteYum.... I need to fill my freezer up with my favourite shepherd's pie and some chilli I think!

It's always handy to have to ready prepared meals at the ready, Victoria.
ReplyDeleteThis is always a great idea. Every now and then I have a big cook up. xx
ReplyDeleteI always want to get cooking once the cooler weather arrives, Katie. At least there'll be something in the freezer now for days when we're in a rush.
