Breakfast – leftover roast turkey with baked beans
My turkey thigh roast love continued the next morning, with three slices of turkey thigh roast and Heinz baked beans for breakfast. Delicious.

I love bento lunches featuring leftover roast meat and vegetables (see previous post Sunday lunch of two roast meats)! I packed us both the same lunch: roast pork with apple sauce, turkey thigh roast with cranberry sauce, roasted vegetables, crackling, steamed green beans and broccoli, and a little container of gravy. This was Jac’s lunch, [&…
A few weeks ago, we had my friend Chad and her boyfriend J over for a Sunday roast lunch. Jac loves cooking for guests, and she cooked up a feast featuring two roasts and lots of vegetables. This was the roast leg of pork, complete with salty, crunchy crackling. Jac peeled the crackling off the […]
We took Jac’s nephew and niece out to breakfast the next morning. We met up with Jac’s cousin K at Dome. I didn’t get photos of everyone’s breakfast – just Jac’s and mine. Jac ordered the eggs benedict. She enjoyed the eggs, toast, spinach and ham, but like many places, the hollandaise served on the […]
A few weeks ago, Jac and I looked after her niece and nephew on a Friday night – their parents (Jac’s brother B and his wife K – remember our Hamilton Island holiday? :)) were off to Melbourne for the weekend to attend a friend’s 40th birthday celebration. The plan was like this: Jac and […]
Jac made this chicken curry using madras curry paste from a jar. It had chicken thigh pieces, potatoes, carrots and onions, with a tin of chopped tomatoes added to make up the curry sauce. It was lovely! And of course, I had leftover curry and rice for my breakfast the next morning. :)
We had a family afternoon tea recently at my parents’ home. Jac and I contributed siew mai to the meal – we bought three or four serves from Fook Kee at Spencer Village International Food Hall (200 Spencer Road, Thornlie) and brought them along. Mum and I placed them in a dish to heat up […]
DinnerPanfried pork steaks with mushroom sauce, served with steamed broccolini, oven-roasted sweet potatoes and potato cubes, with an experimental oven-baked cauliflower and asparagus dish. Mushrooms and spring onions go extremely well with a succulent, poppingly fresh panfried pork chop. The potatoes were golden and crispy-edged and seasoned with …
Here’s some of the food I ate while Jac was away in Denmark (a town in Western Australia, not the country in Europe!) recently, starting with… no surprises for regular readers – SPAM! Whenever Jac’s away I will eat at least one meal of fried SPAM and egg, rice and baked beans. This time, I […]
This was a kind of naughty junk food bento – a McDonald’s bento, with Chicken McNuggets and a sachet of tomato sauce, and a McDonald’s apple pie for dessert. I also included one of my sweet crunchy salad combos – with mixed greens, grape tomatoes, sliced sweet gherkin pickles, grapes and swiss cheese – the […]
