Dinners this weekend

These are our dinners this weekend - I'm SO bored of my own cooking, so this weekend I decided to experiment a bit and set myself a challenge. I had already bought the yummy prawns below at the supermarket, but otherwise, I didn't allow myself to buy anything new and had to use what was already in my fridge/freezer, and they had to be balanced, healthy meals.

I had a bag of salad mix we'd bought which needed to be eaten, so made the below salads using half each night - the salad mix has spinach, lambs leaf, endive and shredded beetroot in it.


SATURDAY NIGHT

WARM GARLIC PRAWN SALAD

INGREDIENTS: Garlic Prawns - Prawns, garlic, red chilli, parsely, olive oil. Salad - Salad mix, baby plum tomatoes, parsely and dressing with lemon juice & olive oil



SUNDAY NIGHT
-
SCALLOP SUPERFOOD SALAD

INGREDIENTS: Scallops - Scallops, sherry. Salad - Salad mix, 5 seed mix, steamed broccoli, orange and dressing of olive oil, white wine vinegar & the pan juices.

Both meals were absolutely amazing!!
