I'm stuck in a bit of a food rut...inspire me with tonight's menu...?

[lucysmam]

We're having hunters' chicken, salad, roast baby potatoes (and garden peas - dd1's last minute addition!).

& we've been to the shop for sweets (and wine for me) for later on.

What about you lot?

Tonight it’s Mary Berry’s Paprika lamb with borlotti beans.

Dinner out! The best kind of dinner 😁

Dc are having saltimbocca with some sautéed potatoes and green veg.
Dp and I are having a lamb curry, breads and rice and hopefully, if they go to plan, onion bhajis.

My favs are leek and potato cheesebake - really easy layer of thinly sliced potato then leeks then cheese then potato then cheese on top and pour milk on it in the oven for an hour. I also like pasta carbonara (we have a lot of eggs from our hens) veg and cheese bake or fish parcels - bit of white fish in some foil pile on the chopped tomato, onion, peppers, mushrooms, courgette and cheese add fresh basil wrap up and bake. really easy to do and all the family make up their own parcel with their favourite veg with/without cheese.

We eat light on saturdays, I've had requests for cheese on toast!

I can understand going back to oven cooking casseroles, I don't use my own slow cooker for casseroles now except for cooking a joint such as brisket or a whole chicken. It's also good for cooking and keeping mulled wine warm.....

I'm having a slow-cooked Hungarian-style sausage and veg stew tonight. Big lunch means a fairly light dinner tonight.

Had leftover cottage pie for lunch and DH is out tonight so will be having a prawn salad once DD is in bed shortly.

Spicy bean (butter beans, kidney beans & chickpeas) & pepper enchiladas with spinach and watercress salad

& gin as I’ve a pink peppercorn tonic to try

DH promised to BBQ steaks as it is meant to be the last of the nice weather, but he's out somewhere and the weather has turned really cold .

Chilli chicken pasta tonight ( chilli, garlic , olive oil and chicken with spaghetti) plus salad and some warm ciabatta 😃

We’re having beetroot and goats cheese risotto tonight. When we have risotto I always make chicken and chorizo, so it’ll be nice to have a change.
