Having some traditional Aussie tucker tonight for Australia Day Dinner.

Some lamb loin chops, Greek salad, Tzatziki and some Saganaki.

Lazy day today, recharging the batteries after the last couple of days for the week ahead. No fambly for dinner tonight but I still made enough tucker for 10 so I got dinner tonight and lunch for most of the week.

Not sure what to call it so I'll go with a mexican inspired chicken salad.

Diced chicken breast , fried up and mixed with black beans, quinoa, bit of rice, lentils, corn, diced cucumber, radish, tomato, onion, chilli, coriander and mint with a lime juice and olive oil dressing.

Eat in tortillas or lettuce cups. Yum.

Tortilla stack. Like a Mexican lasagne but better.

Thought I had the heat just right but the cheese diluted it to what i'd call mild. Never mind, add some Tabasco with lunch.

Went from the sublime to well, not so sublime. At the G yesterday sampled a pastry containing some well cooked & piquant meat that had been minced, some remarkable gravy & topped with a tomato jus.

The presentation could not be considered unique, the temperature was of a very good heat contrasting with the very cold weather. The venue was less than fully populated making the ambience quieter than other occasions experienced previously

Tonights dinner will consist of a roast leg of lamb with all the veges, gravy and mint sauce.

On simmering for the entree (or lunch during the week) is a pot of soup using smoked pork bones for stock, celery, carrot, dried mixed beans, quinoa, leek, lentils, seasoned with some italian herbs, tomato paste, garlic, couple of bay leaves, salt, pepper and a grind or two of the dried chillies.

No, I don't.

Horrible shit. Until some marketing genius convinced people it was a superfood there was a reason no one ate it.

So we got roast potato, pumpkin and beetroot, and steamed silver beet, peas, carrots, zucchini and broccoli.

No Kale here, here - no kale
