What are you having for dinner?

I'm in such a rut if cooking the old same things. Have a 2.5 year and a 11 week old so not loads of time to spend cooking these days but I do enjoy it. We've been living off slow cooker dinners as to can get them prepped while the children nap (ha!) or just having boring old bolognese, curry etc.

Been lazy today and didn't prep dinner this morning. Have just got some chicken breast mini fillets out of the freezer so will do something with those. Probably a curry of some sort. Got rice and poppadoms in so should be ok.

So, what are you having? Inspire me please so I can add some new things to my shop next week!

Prawn pasta tonight. Using up some leftovers. Plus I'm working tonight so needed something quick. Pasta, cream, prawns and cheese. Done

Bowchicawowow · 21/11/2018 16:57

Lamb tagine and flatbreads.

Chocolateheaven123 · 21/11/2018 17:00

Sausages in onion gravy (Hairy Bikers recipes), with mashed potatoes, peas and carrots. I'm 14wks pregnant and have finally got an appetite again so I cannot wait for dinner tonight. One hour to go until DP gets home!

DeadCertain · 21/11/2018 17:13

Teriyaki salmon, noodles, pak choi. Quick and easy today!

TrippingTheVelvet · 21/11/2018 17:15

A 5 pack of Tesco donuts Blush

Justlikedevon · 21/11/2018 17:15

Am torn between sausage and lentil casserole, or wine and crisps.. the latter is looking preferable at the moment.

PurpleDaisies · 21/11/2018 17:16

tripping can I come for dinner?

Dontbestupidagain · 21/11/2018 17:18

We are having smoked salmon carbonara. I'm lacking inspiration too.
I have one fussy dc and very busy evenings which limit cooking time. Trying to limit our red meat consumption as all my easy dinners seem to involve stew, bacon, sausage or bolignaise type stuff.

JoinTheDots · 21/11/2018 17:19

Loads of tagines going on tonight. I am doing beef burgers for me and DH (with melted blue cheese and a big side salad, in a bun, possibly with a few skinny fries on the side) and chicken burgers for the kids (no blue cheese, but they have to eat the salad). Yesterday I did a full roast (chicken) and tomorrow I am doing chicken fajitas.

Cheesymonster · 21/11/2018 17:21

Pasta bake with peppers and mushrooms. Garlic bread. And red wine Wine

ALemonyPea · 21/11/2018 17:27

I'm in hospital so it'll be whatever they're offering.

TrippingTheVelvet · 21/11/2018 17:30

Of course Purple. But I suspect they'll be long gone before you get here Wink

Loubilou09 · 21/11/2018 17:49

dalmatianmad · 21/11/2018 17:59

Lemon chicken pasta and garlic bread 😃

Bloodybridget · 21/11/2018 18:04

We were going to have beef and barley stew left over from last night, but then we went round Iceland and picked up a pack of "wild red shrimp in a tomato and chilli sauce" so we're having that with linguine. Never had it before so hope it's good!

MaryDollNesbitt · 21/11/2018 18:06

Slag Bol (turkey mince)

MaryDollNesbitt · 21/11/2018 18:07

Spag Bol...obvs

Ballbags · 21/11/2018 18:11

Homemade chicken and mushroom pie, buttered kale and mash.

TheFairyCaravan · 21/11/2018 18:13

We had chicken soup/stew and warm crusty rolls. We'll be having the same tomorrow too.

I had hospital treatment on Monday so this week has been a bit shit for meals. Chicken soup has gone down well tonight though especially as it's so cold.

BitchQueen90 · 21/11/2018 18:14

Chicken curry here. Sorry! Grin
