It was arranged ages ago and I found a recipe in Olive magazine that I am now finding impossible to track down!

I am also too bloody tired to be arsed looking through lots of other recipes so, as I feel like I am stuck in a cooking rut, please inspire me!

All meat eaters, something that doesn't require too attention too and slightly more interesting than a meat / potato or otherwise bog standard dinner!

Thanks in advance

Easy:
Starter - cured meats and cheeses with focaccia (homemade optional)
Main: homemade lasagne with a green salad and a tomato salad
Pudding: tiramisu

Bit fancier:

Fig/goats cheese/Parma ham to start

A tagine with some Middle Eastern style sides and salads

Pavlova

Pate with melba toast (I personally love a good smoked salmon or crab pate)

Chicken, stuffed with mozzarella and tomatoes, cooked in the oven.
Serve them on a platter on top of mange tout, tenderstem, baby sweet corn, green beans etc so people can help themselves.
Then a separate dish of whatever potatoes you fancy.

A good ice cream for dessert

Cheese and biscuits.
