I’m having haggis tomorrow. Vegetarian haggis, mind. I’ve not tried it before and was curious. Bit worried the absence of lung might take something away from the dining experience.

Had a "healthy" fry up dinner last night, with very limited frying.

Grilled sausage
Scrambled eggs
Fried tomatoes and mushrooms
Beans
Avocado

Very nice indeed.

i understand WHU independent's point about texture of the stuff vegetarians eat and it's a fair one, but i still think that a vegetarian version of something made entirely by sheep is nonsensical.

what was it actually made of?
a colleague loved it, i asked him this very question and he went like... err... veggies i suppose...
****




(yes this is more against my colleague than it is against veggies and vegetarian haggis, cos he's a bloody idiot, but i'm really still curious about what's in it. i mean, its composition could be literally everything non-meaty, and could vary every time...)

I'd guess it's chopped root vegetables, oatmeal, barley & spices.

Dunno yet, this week's been all screwed up, so looks like it's going to be tomorrow. Burn's night, fittingly enough.

I have Haggis penciled in for tomorrow's dinner as well, with Neeps and Tatties. Washed down with a can of reduced sugar iron bru.

Not dinner but yesterday morning I made a sausage sandwich, but put fried onions and brown sauce in it.

It was quite possibly the best sausage sandwich I've ever had.

I made haggis bolognese this afternoon. Sure that would upset both the jocks and the Eye-talians.

not if it is good it wouldn't!
haggis and tomato sauce seems a bit odd but not sure why, i'd give it a go.

Plenty of eye-ties settled in scotchland. I reckon haggis ragu sounds bloody lovely.

Anyway:

Friday - curry
Saturday - curry
Tonight - roast beef

There aren't many better things in life than roast beef cooked to perfection.
