Was going to have a stir fry, but now having mushrooms and cheese on toast as feeling lazy and have nice bread in.
Had fish for lunch so not main meal here.

DCs have friends for tea too -they're having pasta and homemade sauce, with pitta sticks and garlic butter, plus crudités. DP is away so I expect to hoover up leftovers-and there's also a sausage roll in the fridge with my name on it!

Fake Nandos! Got chicken marinating, I'll do some kind of mini roasted potatoes, coleslaw and salad. Yum! It's a favourite for when the kids aren't eating with us as it's too spicy for them.

We've just had a massive lunch, so probably cheese/crackers/charcuterie and then homemade birthday cake made by DH!

I was planning on cooking chicken teriyaki with leeks, served with brown rice and a spinach salad.

I went out in the kitchen 15 minutes ago and realised that I'd forgotten to take the chicken out of the freezer this morning to defrost, and when I searched for my leeks, I realised I hadn't ordered them from Tesco! I'll now have to defrost the chicken in the microwave, which I don't like doing, and ask DH to go to the corner shop on his way home for a leek - flipping typical!

Fajitas tonight. Quorn chicken, peppers, onions and guacamole maybe some refried beans on the side. I'm looking forward to it.

Eggs in purgatory on toast (pretty sure this was my answer on the last of these threads too...) - quick, as I've got quite a lot of work to do this evening, but relatively healthy and very tasty!

Veggie burritos. Homemade guacamole, salsa, black beans and rice, cheese, sour cream. Delicious and you don't miss the meat at all.
