i like a challenge....

i love to cook but as my hubby is away a lot there is only me to cook for and i cannot abide take out. so i set myself a little challenge .my book arrived two days ago and i have had to read it to let the theory sink in and i am quite excited. the book is called table tucker and written by a young mum who is sick of getting ripped off with the supermarkets but also wants to heal the world - my kinda philosophy.but you actually save money too, your weekly shop comes to around 90.00 or so and Penina Petersen write out your shopping list right down to the last onion!! check out her website http://www.tabletucker.com.au/ for more info .here is the menu that i have cooked up ; chicken kiev [ you make it yourself but with cream cheese instead of garlic butter ] with baked seasonal vegetables [tonites dinner ]and for tomorrow bacon and egg pie with a parmesan salad.[here i did not use any pastry just baked it like a quiche ] so tomorrow the dinner is made so a night off-- more sock knitting time
