We’re meant to be having salt and pepper chicken kebabs on pitta bread with salad but I’ve just cleaned the house from top to bottom and really can’t be arsed starting to cook now. I might just go to McDonald’s instead…

love these threads

we had a snacky lunch in the cold wet playground but I'm doing lamb steaks with potato & parsnip mash and posh broccoli tonight

MotherOfVizslas · 08/01/2023 17:04

We had chicken fajitas last night and there was a lot of chicken and rice left over. I plan to fry up the chicken with some peppers and onion, then add the rice and some tomatoey stock to hopefully make a sort of Mexican flavoured risotto!

PollyEsther · 08/01/2023 17:06

Roast chicken here too! With honey roasted carrots, peas, cauliflower cheese, pigs in blankets and yorkshire puddings.

I don't have a pudding planned today, might quickly whip up a sponge cake that can bake whilst we eat...

pompomdaisy · 08/01/2023 17:06

Spicy vegetable and bean stew with couscous.

Appleass · 08/01/2023 17:07

Organic leg of lamb, it melted in the mouth.

MassiveSalad22 · 08/01/2023 17:08

Side of salad, boiled potatoes, veg.

Really trying to do better with the family meals so have batch cooked bolognese, a curry and a mushroom Alfredo sauce but just feel so guilty hiding away in the kitchen all day. Isn’t that mad? Ugh.

MassiveSalad22 · 08/01/2023 17:08

*side of salmon!!

Thinkwicebeforeyouleavemylife · 08/01/2023 17:13

Bowl of cheerios and a satsuma and a cup of earl grey tea for me!

Can't be arsed cooking feel like I've spent all weekend in the kitchen so tonight it's a 'sort yourself out' kind of evening.

Everyone seems happy with freezer food 😊

TheChosenTwo · 08/01/2023 17:16

Roast chicken, pigs in blankets, parmesan parsnips, roast potatoes, sweetcorn, cabbage and gravy. Then treacle tart with a choice of double/clotted/ice cream pudding.

Lamb burgers and chips. As I'm not cooking it's good with me.

lucysmam · 08/01/2023 17:25

Pasta bake with ooooooodles of melted cheese on top, salad and garlic bread 😋

Afters will either be Christmas sweets, Christmas cake, or perhaps a mince pie & cream.

ShesThunderstorms · 08/01/2023 17:27

We've got an M&S pizza deal as neither of us could be bothered cooking. BBQ chicken pizza, dirty fries and coleslaw. We'll wait until the kids are in bed and be slobs and have it on the sofa. Sooo looking forward to it.

OlleOskiFelle · 08/01/2023 17:27

Roast chicken with all the trimmings followed by trifle.
I'm still on my Christmas visit to friends because I got flu which turned into pneumonia and has now set off my brittle asthma.
No fun being ill but the catering is amazing!

Anjo2011 · 08/01/2023 17:37

We had chicken, roast potatoes, carrots
and cauliflower. I had some ready made pastry to use so I have also made an apple pie.

@TheChippendenSpook 3 big potatoes I do 15 mins in the microwave then I rub oil and salt on the skin and give them an hour at gas 5 to get them properly crispy.

Brilliant, thanks so much Flowers

Jacket potato with a hole cut out and an egg broken into the hole, grated cheese on top, then cooked a bit longer until the egg is set but runny. With salad.
