We only ever eat the same meal once - no favourites, no repetition. A different dinner every night. I have been choosing new recipes every day for about 7 years. As a kid, Thursdays were grill night, Sundays chicken night etc. But not for us! So each day I will post what we ate. I wonder if I can go for a year with out repeating a meal? I'm also going to post our great breakfasts, we do repeat breakfast - its too hard not to! But they are always fabulous.

Day 211 - Pork roast
This dish was great but it took a bit of time - I think it was worth the effort but a it tricky for a week night! Here is the recipe
Day 210 - Balsamic tomatoes
This could be the easiest dinner ever made.
Pan fry a chicken fillet. Keep warm while you make the tomatoes. Slice up some ripe sweet tomatoes and toss them in the fry pan with tomatoes and balsamic vinegar. Pan fry for a few minutes and bobs your uncle, your done. Serve with Basil.
tasty!
Day 209 - Pot sticker dumplings
This is possibly Donna Hays best recipe EVER! It was so tasty. I just cant find the recipe now, but here is a similar one of hers - the dipping sauce that we made was hoising and soy sauces and served with steamed choy sum. The wontons are surprisingly easy to make - it looks fiddly, but really wasnt too hard or time consuming. I might make them for the boys.
Too Good!
Day 208 - Cajun Chicken with Avocado, lime and chilli salsa
Make this!
4 small chicken breasts
1 tbs sweet paprika
pinch of cayenne pepper
1 avocado
2 tbs lime juice
1 long green chilli, seeds removed and sliced lengthways
2 tbs freshly snipped chives
olive oil spray
250g steamed green beans
Cut each breast into 3 thin pieces, then toss in the combined paprika and cayenne to lightly coat. Set aside.
Heat a large frypan over high heat and spray with oil. Cook chicken in batches for 2 minutes each side until cooked
Steam your beans, make the dressing and serve!
serves 4.
