Peter does the Cooking and Catering

My husband is doing all the cooking and catering this week as we are role reversing. I am going to learn how to do various admin things for our business and how to do various things to the car and he is doing the meal planning, the shopping, the cooking and the baking!

Peter cooking

I thought it was going to be a problem when I saw how many sausages he bought but now I know why. We had our grandchildren and son in law for dinner after the football match and he had made a sausage and bean casserole with apricots in it and it was just right. It was completely polished off and was easy, delicious and popular with the children. So I will put the recipe on the blog later.

sausage and bean casserole with apricots

His meal plan goes from Saturday to Saturday and is as follows::-
Saturday (for 2 boys and three adults) Sausage and bean casserole, peas, carrots. Dessert: he made home made yogurt with forest fruits and he baked, YES, HE BAKED, this Madeira cake.

Sunday: out for lunch
Monday. Italian Beef Casserole. Home made yogurt and forest fruits.
Tuesday. Italian Beef Casserole. Home made yogurt and forest fruits. (Yes, he had the sense to batch cookand make enough for two days)
Wednesday: Beef and spinach bake. Home made rice pudding.
Thursday: Beef and spinach bake. (batch cooking again) Don't know what he has in mind for dessert but he has bought lots of bananas and pears.
Friday: Fish.(Don't know what he intends to do but he is planning a trip into the fish market.)
Saturday: Fish.
He also made this breakfast for me on Sunday morning:

My breakfast with tomato and chilli bread with seeds

In case you are wondering, it is dry cured bacon from a local butcher, fried tomatoes and home made (yes he does bread as well) tomato and chilli bread with seeds.
The problem is that he seems just as capable as I am in the kitchen. Let's hope that I can manage the admin etc. just as well when I try my hand at that!
