Tonight’s dinner

[SweetPeaPods]

What is everyone planning for dinner tonight?
Need to pop to shops but not sure what for. DH has been away all week with work so he fancies something nice, maybe spicy as he has had bland food all week. Trying to save money so no takeaway sadly.

Slightly complicated for us tonight, dh has a work meal so he'll be having venison and lots of beer :) I will do sausages, waffles and peas for the teenagers and then have sag aloo and a chapati myself.

@CaptainCallisto sweet potato dhal sounds good, have you made this before? Looking for healthy slow cooker ideas....

Tacos for tea here

I’ve got lamb leg steaks which I’ve cut into pieces to go onto skewers with red onion. The meat is marinating in olive oil, lemon, garlic, rosemary, thyme and oregano, salt and pepper.

We’ll have it in folded flatbreads with falafel and roasted aubergine, along with tomato, olive, cucumber and feta salad.

I’ll have mine with harissa paste and my OH will have his with tzatziki sauce.

Earlier this week we made a very tasty dhal tadka which we had with rice and chapati and a beef madras. We’ve decided to make it regularly as one of our vegetarian meals as it was so delicious - we’ll probably do curried aubergine to go with it.

Paneer, tomato and pea bhuna, leftover from last night, with salad, cashew nuts and poppadoms, topped with loads of coriander.

Prawn cocktail, followed by sea bass with rocket salad, then peaches in wine for pudding.

Some sort of spaghetti with a sausage meat/white/cheese sauce/whatever I decide to do with it all

Sweet chilli halloumi burgers with wedges and salad here this evening! I'm sure my husband will complain there is no meat included but I'm trying to do a couple of meat free meals a week

DH is making homemade burgers. Not sure if we are having regular burgers or turkey burgers. We will have salad and crisps with them probably.

Chicken Hariyali Skewers with Mango Salad, our house smells of delicious fenugreek and coriander now!

Parmo and chips here. Been very good all week so we are going to share one this evening.
Kids are having spaghetti bolognese

Chorizo hash with a fried egg and crusty bread.

Gammon, egg, pineapple, peas with either chips or waffles, haven't decided yet

Veggie toad in the hole

Oof love a parmo. No one local makes them properly though.

Takeaway for me tonight but some of these meals look lovely.

Last night of our holiday in Spain so we are going for a pizza to enjoy one last meal in the warm evenings. 😓

Steak. Having a use it up week so dig around in the freezer.

Chicken biryani in the instant pot

We have got roasted veg; carrot, parsnip, red and green peppers and red onions.
Salmon with Philadelphia and breadcrumbs
Corn on the cob
And shit load of sweet chilli sauce squirted all over I imagine!

Boring tonight I'm afraid

Shepherds pie for my hubby i do a spicy cheesy mash topping, I put peppers and a few chillies in to spice it up.
Our son is on Fish fingers (i did them with salmon as that was the only Fish in Aldi) with veg and skin on chips.

After getting in late form Legoland I gave the kids filled pasta mixed with peas, pesto and some chopped up sun dried tomatoes. Now they are in bed I am munching a homemade feta and kidney bean pasty and swigging a (alcohol free) lager and lime from a can. Classy!

I had chicken caesar salad. I'm 6 weeks pregnant and have been craving it for days!

We had smoked haddock, brown rice, spinach, cabbage and green beans. T’was delicious.
