Taste bud heaven today!
How was day one, any problems?
Todays breakfast is super easy, quick, and very tasty. The hot pepper sauce gives it a nice little kick, we use tobasco sauce but you can choose whatever you like or avoid altogether.
After yesterday’s dinner you are looking forward to lunch today. It tastes just as good when heated up, be sure to add your gherkins, mustard and ketchup.
Dinner is nice as written, however, if you aren’t a fan of sweet potato mash you can chop in cubes and pan fry with some garlic and rosemary as an alternative. It does take a little longer but is delicious with the shallots. I have also added an oxo cube to the mash to give it more flavour, give it a try both ways if you repeat this one.
