What are you having for dinner tonight?

I’m looking for some dinner inspiration please! DH and I are trying to be healthy- we’re good during the week but always derail it with having ‘treats’ at the weekend like pizza, steak and chips etc etc.

What can I cook tonight that is healthy but feels like a ‘treat’?

Spaghetti carbonara (I do a really good one!) with green salad. And wine. Yessssss Friday.

I've just put in the oven chicken stuffed with Boursin wrapped in parma ham. I'm really not in the mood for it but it was quick to prep so hopefully I'll enjoy it, I'm hungry but just no motivation or energy for cooking whatsoever at the moment.

dh has night shift tonight and tomorrow, so it's freezer bingo!

he took sausage casserole to heat up and ds and I had stovies from the freezer with peas and carrots from a jar. I have so much food in the freezer and cupboards and always spend January reviewing stocks/emptying/using stuff up.

A bit late, but I'm about to make pan fried chicken breast, with beetroot, goats cheese and walnut salad. Sort of healthy, but a treat!

I’m doing a sumac chicken tray bake. It’s quick, tasty and healthy so ticks all the boxes for me.

We are trying out Gousto at the moment. So tonight it was the Brazilian moqueca with haddock,and lime rice. Was tasty. I added extra veg, but basically a thick spicy coconut soup with peppers, onions and garlic and the fish.

We had a full chicken dinner, roasties, cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, sweet potato, stuffing and pigs in blankets, lashings of gravy. Was lush! Not sure how healthy it was.

We are having gousto too. Tonight is posh fish finger sandwich with wedges.

If anyone fancies trying it then I have a 50% off code which is:

The other night I did pan fried salmon with a feta, apple and cashew salad. It was delicious.

Whoateallthechocolate · 29/01/2021 19:42

Steak with roast veg. Simple, delicious & satisfying

troppibambini6 · 29/01/2021 19:48

Chicken, chorizo, pepper, beany spicy stew thing. I basically threw what I thought might taste ok in the slow cooker this lunchtime and hoped for the best. It was nice.

We were going to have chicken stir fry, but we did FaceTime with friends and opened a bottle of fizz to celebrate other friends new baby, so we've ditched that, ordered a pizza, and opened another bottle! Hope my Slimming World leader doesn't see this!

Justonedayatatime11 · 29/01/2021 19:52

Doritos and dip Grin followed by the new blonde sea salt galaxy bar which is amazing

polkadotpjs · 29/01/2021 20:56

Take out pizza but my husband didn't order mine so my teen DS shared 😍

LizFlowers · 29/01/2021 21:10

I've had mine. Roast chicken, potato, carrot, peas, stuffing, Yorkshire pudding and gravy. Yum.

SandrasAnnoyingFriend · 29/01/2021 21:14

Followed by some baked rice pudding
