Desperation throw together dip

Husband: I'm hungry
Wife: go cook something then
Husband: I'm working from home and on my lunchbreak, I don't have time to cook
Wife: "lots of rude words"

Right, so I opened the fridge and gazed and gazed and gazed into it's depths.

Mexican black bean chili - no good, The Husband hates mexican food
Curried pumpkin soup - Gah, he hates curry more than he hates mexican food.

Cheese sandwiches BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Cheese gives him the....well he's lactose intolerant, say no more!

Big sigh and suddenly inspiration! Into the processor went

1 large onion
2 cups of cooked black beans
about 30 black kalamata olives
juice of 1 large lemon


Black bean and olive dip!

Also rustled up some zuchini balls and a large bowl of coleslaw (cabbage, carrots and spring onions from the garden!)

Life is good :)

Brazen....I was thinking exactly those words as I clicked on the comment box.

The words SPOILT and BRAT came to mind too! LOL!(in the nicest possible way Crone!)

Clearly recovered from the Man Flu then too I see!

I agree with Brazen. I would have pointed out the garden and said "go graze!". :} xx

What a lucky man! Sounds like something I would do though.Sometimes I wonder why we both bother going through the protest stage first - I know I always give.Forget the chilli and curry my first thought would have been Vegemite sandwiches LOL
Hope he appreciated it.

I love the he's working from home - as opposed to what you do every day.

I suspect something along the lines of "a sandwich isn't cooking" would have come out of my mouth.... I probably would have caved at that point but still.

Kind Regards

Ooooh yum! What's in the zucchini balls? Recipe please ;-)

I probbaly would have caved and made DH something too, but it would have been the same as whatever the kids were having, LOL (i.e. vegemite sandwiches ;-)
