Or making bacon from scratch…
Frying home made bacon

Roast chicken, roast potato, steamed brocolli
Or a simple delicious summer salad of odds and ends…
Salad of grilled capsicum (bell pepper), cucumber, goat cheese, hard boiled egg, herbs
Or Baba ganoush, with just the right amount of smokiness, garlic, olive oil, tahini, and toasted sesame seeds…
