Perfectly Imperfect Strawberries
I love how recently supermarkets have been promoting the sale of Imperfect fruit and vegetables and its about time too.

Slimming World Thai Green Chicken Curry
“Tender chunks of cooked chicken breast in a spicy aromatic curry sauce, topped with sliced bamboo shoots and sliced onions” – This is how Slimming World describes this dish, however I can describe it in one world – “vile!” Unfortunately Slimming World have really let themselves down on this one, this has to be by…
