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.

Cheesy Leeks

This is a wonderful accompaniment to pork or gammon.

Cheesy Leeks
Serves 2 - 1.5 pts each

2 medium leeks finely chopped
1/4 pint skimmed milk
3 low fat cheese triangles
10g grated Parmesan

Cook the leeks until soft in the milk, keep a lid on to stop too much evaporation. Add the cheese triangles and stir well. Remove from the heat and stir in the Parmesan. Serve immediately.

This would be good as a filling for jacket potato or with pasta too.
