What are you having for your dinner tonight?

[CJK]

not really, seem to ahve lost my appetite recently, but am feeling a bit down and just found a lump on the left side of my stomach, it hurts and could be why i not eating much.
Iam too tired all the time lately, never used to get this tired, but nowadays doing the housework seems to knacker me out for the rest of the day.
Come 8pm I'm falling asleep in the armchair!

[CJK]

do you know what coca coal use to celan the engines of thier trucks?
yup, thier own drink!

put a nail in a cup of cola, see how long it takes to dientegrate it!! cos it does, few weeks I think.
Ever wondered why cola is good for cleaning jewellery? the acid strips off the dirt.

And we drink that stuff? (yup I do too on occasion)

That doesn't sound good CJ, perhaps you should get it checked out.

Yes but when you think about it CJ our own stomachs contain acid, if it wasn't for our tough stomach lining our own acid would kill us.

I use to drink quite a bit of regular coke, however I switched to diet coke a few years back, I only get through about 2 litres every two months, so I don't drink a great deal of it, as I would try and have water.

Regular coke or diet coke does bloat me out

going doctors next weds, unless things get any worse before then of course.

Put chicken in nonstick pan. I usually brown my chicken a little first before pouring the ketchup and diet cola over the top. . Bring to boil. Cover, reduce heat and cook for 45 minutes. Uncover, turn up the heat and continue cooking until the sauce becomes thick and adheres to the chicken. It turns into the most incredible BBQ sauce.

You could omit the ketchup and add chopped tinned tomatoes instead, you could also add some onion, courgettes etc as well

Gonna just have to try this for the sheer hell of it to find out what it would taste like!!!! Cant imagine cooking with cola!!!

Hope all goes well at the Docs CJ. And try to eat something - even if it is something small.

Donna I have made this a couple of times, it is quite nice

If you cubed the chicken up it would only take about 30 mins to cook

[Donna]

Will definately give that one a go Emma! Will add some peppers and onion etc. I thought tomato sauce was out too!

[EmmaG]

Tomato ketchup has got a lot of sugar in it, but as the recipe above would feed at least 4 people, 1 cup of ketchup divided between four portions isn't too bad, if you haven't got any reduced sugar ketchup, I would substitute the ketchup with a tin of chopped tomatoes.

You could also use some concentrated tomato puree, instead of the tinned or ketchup, that would work very well.
