We're having super noodles with chopped up hot dogs.

Nothing beats a nasty Friday tea.

We had a lamb hotpot with veg,really enjoyed it actually.Nice to cook something warming instead of spending loads on a waste of money takeaway.

Defrosted homemade chicken bhuna, M&S saag aloo and naan breads.

Think tomorrow night will be jacket potatoes with sausages (all done in the air fryer) plus beans done on the hob.

Brie and Bacon toasted sandwiches in the Breville, or chilli cheddar and tomato.

Chicken Caesar salad. It's my favourite dish for some bloody reason but pretty cheap

We’re having BLT’s tonight in front of the football.

A bean thing in a carton. Free from work . When the guys come to restock the vending machine they take out anything that is up that day. I might have an egg sandwich too whilst still at work.

Bertiebassettsbuscuits · 09/12/2022 16:55

I am doing a rack of ribs with dirty fries and some cold beers.

Hot dogs. White finger rolls and thick Finest pork sausages from Tesco, with crispy onions (Waitrose), mustard and ketchup. No salad! Going to have them on laps whilst watching the football at 7pm.

Chicken burgers and chips tonight. Bought some of the nice triple cooked chips from the fridge/ready meals section, cheesy topped cobs for burger buns and buttermilk chicken fillets. Wanted something to stick to the ribs and warm us up from the inside tonight.
