Lady Lunch

Mum is on the afternoon shift again today.  5 down and just 3 to go.  She tries to make her own food to take, to save the pennies and this week is trying to clear out the fridge before buying more groceries.   She had a couple of large spuds to use up - so decided to make baked potatoes.

Super easy.  She microwaved them for 15 minutes then put them in the oven for a 1/2 hour.  She chopped 1 small onion + 1 small zucchini + 1/2 red pepper.  She fried these in a small bit of oil.  She then scooped out the inside of the potatoes and added the cooked veg, 2 slices of ham chopped up small, butter,  2 chopped up slices Swiss cheese, some defrosted peas and corn and salt and pepper.  All mixed up and put back into the potatoes and back in the oven for a further 10 minutes.

So a tasty lunch for her and supper for the next couple of days.  Me - well I am going to stick to the feast.

  5. Mmmm, those look yummy, at least to our biped! Your mum always makes such tasty food, Poppy. We're with you, though, we'll stick to our canned kitty food. :-)

  6. It's like having a meal on a small, thick dish - and then eating the dish. Good, tasty idea.
