    Hmmmm. Have some sausages in the freezer and they never come out because they require thawing and cooking.... sort of like a vicious cycle🤯

    Coffee for now! Black! Dark! Strong!😎

    It is! Brought at the height of the craze & relegated to cooking sausages, chicken & potato wedges! Cost the OH a fortune IMO!

    Yup - just watch the timing. It happens faster than you think.

    I have no air fryer experience - personally prefer pots, pans and stove/oven. However hubby and son are BIG air fryer and Instapot users. After work son likes quick meals. So he has used his air fryer successfully with defrosted and frozen foods. It’s apparently just a matter of practice and timing. His favorites are pork tenderloin and sausages.

    You are a woman after my heart, Yooly. Pots, pans, stove, oven, knives, cutting board.

    Yup - strictly old school here. Not enamored of kitchen toys.

    Uh, 5.3oz or 150g. The type you buy with the peel back foil top, no plastic lid.

    Ahh! Definitely NOT the size of "cups" I'm using which HAVE a plastic tub lid in ADDITION to the foil/or plastic :wink:

    Glad to keep hearing that you're improving and handling a wider variety of stuff!

    I buy those too, lol. I call them "tubs" of yogurt, vs the individually snack-size "cups".

    The Two good yogurts are my favorite to pack to work. I have Meyer lemon, black cherry and mixed berry for work this week.

    Yes .. . they're cute little thingies!!!

    I used to get the Yoplait 0% 24 packs in various flavours before they changed their formula and became somewhat chalkey.

    Even had a whole process going on how to pierce the bottom to speed up the up-ending of the little cup into a bowl where 4 of a kind (or 6 or so of complimentary kinds) would briefly stay on their way to my tummy 😋

    Was beautiful when it worked but sad when I had to do the spoon clean up to avoid sending goodness to the recycle bin!

    Hi all! Breakfast as a traybake - usual bacon, sausage, egg, tomatoes, mushrooms, egg - and a slice of black pudding 😍
    Whopping 600 cals with my mug of tea 😳

    Now that’s a hearty breakfast! My piddling breakfast - plain yogurt, one boiled egg, berries- barely hit 250 calories. I ate after an hour spent at the gym. Now I’m ravenous……..

    Yeah… I find I’m ravenous after yoghurt & fruit, but your breakfast is so much healthier …. Mind you, I was so stuffed, did not eat until supper, except for some fruit - a nectarine & pear.

    Two days within calories… not bad if I say so myself!

    Yooly might be time to experiment after gym

    Come back and instead of generate hungry day with normal breakfast go for bigger more solid brunch breakfast and food comma.

    Possibly combine breakfast lunch calories and move dinner a bit earlier to compensate for missed lunch once you wake up from the comma nap.

    Worth a try😎
