What’s for dinner?

[Grumpylockeddownwoman]

It’s a nice warm evening and I’d planned on a curry but don’t fancy it now. Have a fairly full fridge and cupboard so looking for inspiration really!

We're having an aubergine sliced long ways with slices of mozzarella and tomato slotted in it, with some more cheese, garlic and parsley on top. Will have some rice with that.

We're trying to make stuffed cannelloni for the first time, DD is going to help me. Taking advantage of the lockdown and not having to make quick dinners before rushing out to one activity or another to try new recipes and teach DD some basic cooking skills.

chiclen salad.

Salmon and baby herby potatoes

We are having halloumi and pineapple skewers with spicy sweet potato wedges. Spinach salad with honey garlic dressing.

@mommybear1 oh I do have salmon and also new potatoes that could be an idea.

Sainsbury's taste the difference huge king prawns ( grilled with shell on ) with homemade garlic & chilli butter & oil type sauce, new potatoes, salad & a side of halloumi 😋🦐🌶

Sorry OP maybe the prawns aren't something that are just kicking about in your fridge.

Can't wait .... prawns are the best, could live on them!

BBQ! Nom 😋

Cheese and bacon omlettes with a big salad.

We are having a full roast 🙈 I really fancy it even though my oven has been on for so long and it’s quite warm!

Salad. Cold meats, quiche and the like. Taboulleh.

@artyandtarty that sounds absolutely delicious! I do have prawns but not shell-on! That’s going on the shopping list for next time though... God I miss being able to “pop to Sainsbury’s”

I’m having Chinese! I expect Thai fried rice, some crispy duck pancakes and stir fried broccoli - I can’t wait! I’m washing it down and it’s Tesco finest Prosecco as it’s on offer

Curry.

We've gone curry mad.

I'm making a quiche with new potatoes and salad

Potato salad, green salad, beetroot and a couple of hard boiled eggs, I think. 😋

Creamy chorizo penne

A prick with a fork markses paella, with asparagus, for me and DH.

I have some Tuna fishcakes for Ds2. He'll have them with chips, as usual.

And I need to cook DS1 his daily sausages. His diet is more restrictive than ds2's, these days (both have asd). So far, today, he's had a chunk of banana bread, a packet of prawn crackers and half a galia melon.

Honey and mustard chicken with whole wheat penne.

Marinated chicken thigh fillets (BBQ), ratatouille, cabbage salad and steamed new potatoes. Now feeling hungry reading about what you are all having.

So want to get a bbq - we got rid of our last one last summer and haven’t replaced yet

Marinated pork loin chops (just discovered them from Tesco, really good)
Savoury rice with lots of veg and seasoning. It was all cooked earlier, so will be eaten warm with salads rather than hot.

My daughter is making bean chilli and loaded nachos as she’s doing an online sea cadet catering course and has to cook for us all. I’m looking forward to it!
