    All sorts of your postings are coming up on my feed now that I subscribed a monthish ago. Love them, what a great use for the large zucchini in the soup. I have several baking recipes to use them but that’s the first soup one I have seen. As often one checks their plants there is always a few that hide away. I love to garden as well.

    Your tasty recipes have given an appetite for meat, chicken and fish. I've been struggling with veganism and vegetarianism, but your videos make it easier to eat. Thanks.

    So glad I subscribed to your channel Claire. Getting some fab ideas. Peppers chop up and freeze (game changer). Tea towels to wipe surfaces etc instead of rolls and rolls of kitchen towel (huge money saver as I was going through loads of the stuff). Each time I watch a video of yours I go away with a great new hack, love it 😊. Meals all look amazing, I'm going to make the curry tomorrow and soup the day after. Thank you so much ❤

    The in thing at the moment for my teenager are chicken wraps.
    Super easy to make and quite tasty too.
    Salad / sauce and chicken goujons.
    I'm absolutely craving a hearty beef strew !! Just took some diced beef out the freezer so I will prob have that on tomorrow.

    It all looked terrific, Claire. It IS difficult coming up with meals over and over. We do the same meals week after week sometimes. Five meals, two days of leftovers. Repeat the next week. You could do that and even just change one or two days per week. I like mushroom ragu over polenta, but you could do it with sausage and onion and peppers for Ed. I made vegetarian and sausage stuffing and used fresh marjoram, sage, and thyme. So good! I also roasted a very lean turkey for Thanksgiving. Barely anything in the pan to make gravy with. Also made a veg mushroom gravy. Two kids are vegetarians, two are meat eaters. They brought potatoes and pies and pumpkin vegan chocolate chip cookies! I think you are doing a smashing job over there, Claire. Wish I could pop by and drop off something home cooked for you!

    • @mumthings
      @mumthings  10 месяцев назад +2

      Your comments are always so kind, I so appreciate it! Yes leftovers are a life saver. Because I’m at home with the kids at the moment I use them for lunches and we have them at the weekend too. It’s such a life saver to be able to pull a full ready made meal out of the freezer xx

    I was watching a Sephardic kosher meal prep ; she made a soup- minced chicken meatballs with lots of fresh herbs and spices + rice. She simmered them in a broth with lots of giblets minced carrots, onions, celery, and leeks. I made it with aboriginal rice and it was great! . Good to freeze too and gluten free.
