Seven bird roast, vegan style

Pictures of my christmas dinner, possibly.

Had the idea to have one of those gooducken / multi bird roast type things for christmas dinner. But vegan stylee obviously. Starting with a garlic:

Then BUTCHERED a sprout to get the garlic inside. Sticking with raw veg at this point.

Then carved a potato, and then steamed it, but still had to trim more of the sprout to get it inside the potato.

I carved the turnip before steaming it, might have been easier the other way round, but carving the turnip like a pumpkin was one of the thoughts that started this off. Steamed it next, and then stuffed the potato, sprout, and garlic inside.

Next a pepper, easy, sensible, traditional vegetable stuffing.

So easy I couldn't resist doing another. That and having a big economy bag peppers with no greens in, yay.

Now I started running out of veg, so the aubergine doesn't quite fit round it all. I'm off out now to get a swede and a pumpkin...

From Flickr

I should have planned it out better and gone further with more carefully selected vegetables, but still not bad for a first go. I'm having linda mcsausages wrapped in vege bacon to go along with this so it'll be filling and interesting enough.

I stuffed a pepper with all the leftover bits mashed up bubble and squeak style and made some chips to go with it, was possibly nicer than the multi roast is actually going to be...

Trying to time a roast dinner around feed and bath time, that's never going to work

We're giving it a go!

Just bathed himself and Clare is doing the bedtime feed, while I have my list of instructions;

7.15pm - baste chicken, potatoes and veg in
7.25 - pie in
7.40 sprouts on and stuffing in
7.50 peas on


military precision, fast approaching my 7.25 milestone do I have time to write about my day? Very busy again, nothing newsworthy there, but clearly something newsworthy about our office as Inside Out were in filming. No though, what's that all about? Maybe she'll be in tomorrow.

Work fireworks and bonfire today too. It's been so wet here that they must have used a serious amount of petrol to get it going, it was roaring away as I left. I am expecting to come in to a pile of ash where the office was in the morning. It's good that they do things like this for the staff and the families (putting on events I mean, not torching the place) but Harry's too young for it this year.

Pie time!

Had a great christmas dinner at Canterbury Wholefoods

Booked into Canterbury Wholefoods for lunch on Saturday and very glad we did, had a brilliant christmas dinner, nut roast, roast veges, potatoes, gravy, christmas pud and ice cream, all vegan, brilliant. I would phone up and book if you're heading there on a Saturday, but in theory you can just walk in.

Really good, look forward to going more when we live closer.
