Love these threads for getting dinner ideas. I'll start. We're having chinese chicken fried rice, using some of the whole chicken we roasted this morning.

What are you having?

Hunters chicken, chips and peas. Apart from we have no bacon so it’s just bbq sauce and cheese.

Chicken breast stuffed with mozzarella and tomato and wrapped in Parma ham.
With gnocchi.
I'm literally chucking it all in the ninja for 20 minutes

Making a pasta sauce with tinned toms, carrots, mozzarella and basil. Skint so cheap but will taste good!

M&S pasta deal - goats cheese and red onion ravioli with garlic bread, pesto and some baby spinach.

I'm going to roast some cherry tomatoes and a block of feta with a little olive oil and then add it to some fresh linguine

Cottage/shepherds pie but with turkey mince as I have some to use. My DP calls it "gobble pie" 🤣

hairyunicorn · 24/10/2022 15:53

work provides dinner, tonight they have served lamb, with butternut squash and other veg. Not the best but i am glad i don't have to cook

recklessgran · 24/10/2022 15:53

Slow cooker chicken and mushroom casserole, mash, carrots and sliced green beans followed by homemade apple crumble and custard. We love a bit of comfort food.

Lottieskeeper · 24/10/2022 15:54

Chicken chowmein.
I've recently found that a tablespoon of toasted sesame oil near the end makes it pretty much as tasty as a takeaway chowmein.

Vampirethriller · 24/10/2022 15:54

Leek pudding, swede, sprouts, potatoes, gravy.

Chickenpeppers · 24/10/2022 15:54

I really want a large greasy Donna kebab covered in garlic mayo with a side of chips but will probably have black bean stir fry instead because I've got peppers and mushrooms in the fridge I need to use

Mydogatemypurse · 24/10/2022 15:55

Left over mince and onion and mash from sat. Ill make some peas and carrots fresh to go with it.

Whistlesandbell · 24/10/2022 15:55

Meatballs, spaghetti, garlic bread and dish of peppers, onions and mushrooms.

Mrsjayy · 24/10/2022 15:56

Chicken and leek pie made from left over roast chicken and probably mash and peas

TreacsPotNoodle · 24/10/2022 16:01

Cheese leek and potato pies with root mash and honey roasted carrots

Been craving a proper comfort dinner for ages so I'm very excited!

TheTempest · 24/10/2022 16:01

Sweet and sour chicken and egg fried rice. I’m looking forward to it already!

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 24/10/2022 16:02

@TreacsPotNoodle That sounds lovely. How do you do your pies?

Wallabyone · 24/10/2022 16:05

We're having pork belly, jacket potatoes, corn on the cob and coleslaw.

JohnsShirt · 24/10/2022 16:06

Spinach Dahl, onion bhajis and rice.

elephantoverthehill · 24/10/2022 16:06

Um, I'm not really sure. It came out of the freezer and I couldn't read the writing. I think it is lamb Korma from part of a leftover takeaway. I shall find out later.

Lyndsb · 24/10/2022 16:07

Homemade chunky cream of vegetable soup with homemade soda bread and real butter.

Strawberries and ice cream for pudding.

LovelyBitOfSquirrel69 · 24/10/2022 16:09

@elephantoverthehill that's what we call a Russian roulette freezer meal in our house!
