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.

Garlic Mushroom Pitta Pizza

I found myself in the enviable position of having lots of points left tonight. I really fancied pizza so looked in the fridge to see what I could rustle up. I always have pitta bread in the house as it is so versatile and yet filling.

Garlic Mushroom Pitta Pizza
Serves 1 -3 pts each

1 Pitta bread
3 Mushrooms thickly sliced
1 Clove garlic finely chopped
5g Grated Parmesan
Tsp Tomato puree
Pinch of dried herbs
1 slice ham

Dry fry the mushrooms and garlic with oil from a mister. Toast the pitta and split. Spread with tomato puree, sprinkle with herbs and stuff with the rest of the ingredients. The heat from the pitta and the mushrooms will heat everything through.
