Today I'm having a ham shank with apple sauce, mashed potatoes, runner beans, carrots, peas, gravy and a glass of cider.

I have taken advantage of DS's promise to eat the bolognese and I have added loads of vegetables and some red lentils that I intend to blend in thoroughly.

I like the idea of bolognese and cheese toasties!!!!!

I also very much like the idea of cider.

Jamie's mince and onion pie with greens and lemon posset I made this morning for pud. Can't wait.

gerbo · 12/10/2019 16:59

Those toasties sound great....

Chinese takeaway

Therealjudgejudy · 12/10/2019 17:15

Penne pasta with arabiatta sauce and meatballs. Those toasties sound genius I must add!

EleanorLavish · 12/10/2019 18:07

Mary Berry's Saturday Night Pasta.
And I'm making a batch of brownies too which are in the oven and smell divine....

We had oven pizza tonight, but last night after the kids were in bed I made the most amazing orzo with lemon, garlic and roast veg. New recipe and will definitely be going on the rotation.

iklboo · 12/10/2019 18:16

@Eminybob - that sounds delicious. Have you got the recipe please?

CosyNights · 12/10/2019 18:20

Mince and dumplings with veg

Eminybob · 12/10/2019 18:25

@iklboo here you go:

vanillaandbean.com/lemon-garlic-orzo-with-roasted-vegetables/

I didn’t put in the mushrooms, pine nuts or feta as dh isn’t keen but it was delicious all the same

Eminybob · 12/10/2019 18:27

(And apologies that it’s one of those god awful sites that you have to scroll past miles of waffle before you get to the recipe)

iklboo · 12/10/2019 18:35

Thank you @Eminybob

"Chicken in paper" (Maggi Oh So Juicy pre-oiled and seasoned envelopes that you cook chicken in to flavour it and keep it moist), mashed potatoes, and random vegetables stir fried.

Nutellalovesme · 12/10/2019 18:49

Cod & chips

Dp batters the cod and makes the chips. Smile

KondoKonvert · 12/10/2019 18:56

Tonight we're having roast duck, stir fried Savoy cabbage and roasted celeriac. I'm low carbing cos otherwise it'd be a big dirty Domino's 😂

Chicken fajita pie - currently sipping fizzy rosé whilst it’s cooking

LittleSweet · 12/10/2019 19:11

I feel I'll. I'm having a tin of heinz macaroni cheese, plastic white bread with margarine and a slice of garlic bread. Are you tempted?

IHaveBrilloHair · 12/10/2019 19:14

I was almost on-board until you mentioned margarine.
Bleeeruuurgh.

dingdang · 12/10/2019 19:15

Prawn cocktail salad.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 12/10/2019 19:27

Basically nothing. We went to an international buffet thingy for school easier and have all eaten loads. There might be toast before bed...

CileyMayRhinovirus · 12/10/2019 19:47

Reheated takeaway and ice cream. Possible the whole tub. Been one of those days
