Menu for the week of 7 June 2009

I don't know what to expect this week. I got my garden basket last week, so I have a fridge full of veggies to use up. The gyros, tilapia, steak and whole chicken will be cooked on the barbecue (weather permitting). Can you tell we love our barbecue?

Sunday I made eggs Benedict for one with this recipe. It was tasty, but I didn't quite get the proportions right. It's definitely too rich to make for just myself again; but it was worth the experiment. I've not cooked much (other than dinner) of late, and Sunday's breakfast reminded me how much I enjoy cooking.

There's a couple of other breakfast recipes that I want to try; but they'll probably end up being done next Sunday when I've got the time to experiment again. I've not left an empty night from cooking this week in a desparate attempt to not. Eat. Dinner. Out this week.
