Another what's for dinner one!

I've just realised I've got to cook dinner. I've gone merrily through my day thinking it was Friday and looking forward to take away curry for tea! I think it's cos dh usually works away Thursday night but this week he was rota'd on for Wednesday.

So now I'm frantically defrosting chicken. Think I've got the stuff to make my go to Mexican one-pot fajitas, it'll just have to be without onions! I've cooked from scratch every night since Sunday which is good for me as I'm disabled and can't stand up for very long (ok, with dd2 and ds help) but I'm determined to do it myself tonight!

What do you cook in an "emergency"?

Normally something that was batch cooked and frozen but if we don't happen to have anything pre-made in the freezer it'll be an egg scramble, which is eggs, whatever vegetables need using up, and cheese.

DS and DH are having a fry up. Im having beans on toast. And tea with Bolands Fig rolls.

oh my… simple!

Pasta with whatever is in the fridge/freezer thrown in and a cheese sauce. Usually broccoli, sweetcorn, ham and chorizo.

Funnily enough I am making chicken fajitas tonight. It looks like you are in Glasgow so, sadly, I can't give you an onion @weegiemum

Frozen veggie burgers with frozen buns! I was in the same spot this morning, thought it was Friday, looking forward to take out. We'll have a fried rice I made on the side and some frozen green beans. Pretty sad!
