In general, a lot of western style food, and trying to keep the cooking times down so simple all the way!! And I am getting better at cooking for 4 (well, 3 adults and K, now that J is away this week). I figure we may as well cook at home while I am here, then once baby arrives, we can do more take outs and get mum and dad to cook more.
This week's dinner ideas include:
chinese chicken & cashew nuts and mabo nasu
quiche
mum's famouse hot pasta salad (got a great zucchini to go in it)
curry (once I get a block of beef somewhere...having trouble finding one in the shops at the moment for some reason. And we usually use either 牛筋 or block of pork, but mum can't eat pork so need to find a block of beef - as I don't like the pre-cut chinks of curry meat they sell, and dad wasn't so keen to use the thinly sliced beef..)
almond cookies (ok, not dinner, but would like to make some for mum to try)
