New recipes

Joan · May 12, 2019

What was the last new recipe you tried? Do you often try out new things or tend to stick to what you know? I really what to cook more new things Pinterest has loads of ideas, it's just getting on and buying what I need.

This is the one I plan on doing this week.

Well I sorta did this, I was sure there was a shoulder of lamb in the freezer, and it turns out there was only a leg of lamb, so that was the first change, I got to use olive oil on it, nevermind! I think I should have taken it out of the slow cooker a bit earlier, it tastes okay but wasn't falling off the bone like I hoped.

Nix · May 16, 2019

Maybe it needed longer to cook so it was falling off the bone. When I use the slow cooker it should cook until the meat starts to fall apart...that's how I do it, even for a joint of meat rather than a stew.

I tend to stick to what I know but occasionally I'll find a new recipe and I'll enjoy it. Especially in the Slow Cooker. There are a few slow cooker recipes on Slimming World that are good. Like diet coke chicken and pulled pork.

I try the stuff from food wishes once in a while, maybe not to the t, but i get pretty close; it's just uglier haha. Still very tasteful.

I need to look up more ideas for the slow cooker, and maybe try and get a better control of the portions

Going to make a chicken curry in the slow cooker this weekend, usually just make a curry out of the jar, but I'm going to attempt to make one with spices and everything! Well I've found an easy korma recipe on pinterest so we'll see!

I don't know if this is new for you, but it's totally a Brazilian thing:

* 1 can of condensed milk
* 2 table spoons of butter
* 2 table spoons of chocolate

Stir it all on low fire, past boil, until it gets a harder consistency/texture.

It is Brazilian's favorite sweet. - Careful: It is really sweet!!!

Well I hope it turns out better for you than it did for me, yuck, was going to have it two days in a row but by day two it looked and smelled like cat vomit

The BBC good food website is great for recipes, and they are usually already on the Myfitnesspal app as well so I don't have to figure out the nutritional values.

Well, the other day, I made my first ever banana nut loaf and it came out pretty good! I wanted to make use of some bananas that were a bit too brown for me to eat, I didn't want to waste them.

Nix · Nov 23, 2020

Anything banana is pretty good. Deserts, snacks, banana bread, or banana flavoured smoothies/milkshakes.

Just rice with corn and every one of the leftovers- with chicken and add gravy. With ribs shredded in little items add items of everything and it's smart. no matter you prepare add plenty of love- that may hump for you and for your family, that is the best ingredient.

Oooh, that sounds so yummy.

Right now I am in the kitchen boiling water, I've added a splash of oil and pinch of salt and spices. I am waiting for the boil and then adding some leftover macaroni pasta to it. It's not a lot but I am hoping I can make two portions out of it. So I have pasta tonight with melted cheese on top and a sauce I am making soon. And then again another day.

I have a jar now filled with macaroni pasta but I don't want to open that one just yet.
