Meals planned for the week

I am trying to be organised. Things have been a bit chaotic over the last couple of weeks, my dear hubbie had a little stint in hospital and then has been all over the show with pain so I need to get life back on track where I can.

I am definitley  a better cook than nurse that's for sure .

The Meal plan for the week give or take what days these happen. The recipes will follow on the day with the photos . Well that's the plan .

Chicken and basil stir fry

Stuffed egg plant

Chicken paella

Pork and silver beet curry

Spiced chicken, lentil and pumpkin salad

Meatless Monday - Thai pumpkin and chickpea curry

I can't wait to sample these little wonders . I have not made any of them before so it will be a fun week.

I might even get buy in from one of my male Chefs to help me out .

Valentines Day - To die for chocolate brownie

This recipe happens to be one of the most different  things I have made . I think my message would be don't knock it until you have tried it. If you did a blind tasting with your family and friends, not letting them know what is in the recipe they would never ever pick it.

SCRUMPTIOUS  ( family favourite)

Chocolate brownie

400 g tinned red kidney beans or black beans well rinsed and drained

3 Tbspn apple purée

3 eggs

1/2 C cocoa GF

1 & 1/2 tsp baking powder GF

1/3 C raw sugar

1 tsp vanilla essence

40g chocolate chips GF

Blend all ingredients together in a food processor until very smooth, spread into tin, sprinkle with chocolate chips and bake at 180C for 20 minutes. 

It creates a rich fudge brownie.

The genius part is that you can't detect the beans.
