About Me

My photo
My name is Jo and I am a single parent. I have two young boys aged 4 and 3. I'm starting this blog in order to keep myself sane and to share my experiences as a single parent. My oldest son is called Charles but is very rarely called that, he is usually referred to as Charlie or Bobbins. He is very long sighted and needs to wear glasses all the time - when he has not broken them of course. My other son is called Leo, but is known as The Bean. He has a mild case of Spina Bifida and also has hydrocephalus, not that you would know that to look at him. My intention is to take a picture every day for a year and to write a little about it. The say that a picture is worth a thousand words and each picture will hopefully represent that day.

Carrot and Courgette Salad

This is incredibly simple but really tasty. It is already dressed and so does not require any oil or points laden mayonaise. I serve it with lamb, chicken and just about anything as it adds moistness to a meal.

Carrot and Courgette Salad
Serves 2 - 0 points each

1 Raw carrot coarsely grated
1 Raw courgette coarsley grated
1 tsp mint sauce
Squeeze of lemon juice

This is best prepared just before you are ready to serve. Make sure you use the coarse grater or the salad will be too wet. Simply mix all the ingredients in a bowl and serve. What could be easier?
