Our Sunday alfresco lunch...

Chicken nuggets and fried rice...


Homemade Strawberries n Cream sorbet , topped with custard and fresh-cream...


Strawberries/Blueberries non-dairy smoothie..

I had some leftover fried-rice from Saturday, which I re-friend and added more eggs. I had also made some chicken nuggets yesterday (my kids all-time favourites and ultimately a down-right winner!) - I changed the recipe a little though, omitting bread crumbs and included chopped waterchestnuts. On account of Hub's current gout situation, I had bought some strawberries (they say it helps..but who really knows with gout...) and made non-dairy strawberry smoothies. This was so simple - blended fresh strawberries and blueberries, with a little bit of celery juice as base (true to trying to cure Hub's gout, I had bought a lot of celery bunches too!). Last night, I made my own version of "strawberries & cream" sorbet - simply by blending strawberries, frozen blueberries, thickened cream and honey. Then left to freeze (I had meant to come back in an hour to re-blend hoping for a smoother texture, but I plain forgot!!). Anyway, the kids enjoyed their sunday dessert and we thoroughly enjoyed our alfresco lunch!
