It's not so bad is it? Sometimes it has more of a texture, especially if you under-cook it. But it's for-sure passable as an alternative.

Homer: Mmm . . . passable . . .
I actually don't mind, it's just annoying because I'm normally cooking with my boyfriend which means we have to cook two lots of things. Or I go without and have salad which sucks when we have curry.
>_< If you cook it, then he can get what he's given (go sister!). Why not have a curry and use cous-cous to replace the rice/whatever?

couple more to go.
That's fantastic Gav. Well done.
My husband eats what he likes and never gains weight. When we were out recently he had a full English breakfast, fish, chips and beans, a cake and some chocolate, then steak, chips and peas and chocolate brownie with clotted cream and a family size bag of jelly babies on the way home. He is 6'2" and weighs 12 and a half stone. Shame you can't see the state of his heart and arteries on the outside. When people are overweight it's obvious they could/should do something but not so when they are slim.
How did it go, Loops?

12 stone!! Bloody hell that is slim. I'm not going that low I'm aiming for the 15 - 14 mark probably. But that's ambitious.

Hasn't happened yet. 12th August. I will let you know. I started my pannicking early so we could practise a few recipes. Is that how you spell pannicking? Can't be bothered to look it up.
It was at our son's graduation a couple of weeks ago where my husband ate all that food.
