Chicken fajitas. Chopped chicken, sliced sweet peppers, sliced onion, garlic cooked in a pan. Add coriander just before serving.

Warm the fajitas in the microwave. Stuff fajitas with chicken mixture and natural yoghurt, plus salsa and lime juice. Roll and eat. Have tortilla chips on the side.

Cheese cake and ice cream for afters.

Marmitako. .which is a Spanish tuna and potato stew. Lots of lovely buttered tiger bread to dip in it. And a very cold Albarino. I also made a starter which was goats cheese thyme and honey on slices of toasted bread. I'm stuffed!!

We are on holiday. We had pizza from the fresh pizza counter at Morrisons. They do a vegan version so DH was happy. We don't have a Morrisons near us at home. Then we had some vegan chocolate ice cream that DH picked up on the way round the supermarket.

Lamb chops, roast potatoes and carrots, stir fried savoy cabbage and leeks, mint sauce.

My dc (17) has made a chicken, mushroom, onion pie in a creamy sauce for tonight, as that's what needed using up in the fridge.
She's cooked the filling and has blind baked the pastry and it's now assembled and in the oven baking.
I think she is serving it with broccoli and peas.

Yesterday she made up her own thing using lamb mince (rolled into little balls), pearl barley, red peppers, butter beans, onion, aubergine, courgette, tinned tomatoes, some stock and herbs and spices (salt, pepper, parsley, cinnamon, and all spice). All simmered together in a pan on the stove. She served it with some flat bread and it was very tasty.

Yesterday I made home made beer battered scampi and chips with mushy peas. The tarter sauce didn't work so I binned it.

Tonight is roast loin of pork, steamed baby potatoes, carrots and sugar snaps with home made apple sauce. Followed by churros and chocolate sauce.

Just had steamed salmon (Lidl Alaskan Wild, frozen fillets) with sweetcorn and peas. The veg was ok, the fish was absolutely disgusting. Pallid, fatty and tasted vile. Gave some to the dog but he wasn't keen.

joystir59 · 25/08/2019 15:34

Just had a McVities choc thin.

Shockers · 25/08/2019 15:36

Juanbablo · 25/08/2019 15:44

Sausages (veggie for me) and chips. Beans for those who want them or salad.
