What's everyone doing? And got planned for meals?

Tonight I'm hoping to go to a Chinese buffet, but we'll probably end up with freezer pizza.

Tomorrow we are unpacking (we've just moved) and collecting furniture and a boiler plumber is coming because we've got no hot water. Will probably have lasagne and chips for dinner.

On Sunday, probably more unpacking, sorting and decluttering, and I might make dahl soup and flatbreads 😋😋😋

Ooh what's your Dahl recipe please
I'm in lazy mode from today, we're having meatless meat balls 😂 and tagliatelle with veg added to sauce, wraps&chips and salads, and Malaysian prawn curry with flat bread
Hope your move wasn't too traumatic

oil
onion
garlic
sometimes add lardons
curry powder
s&p
dried coriander
lentils
water
stock cube
more herbs/seasoning to taste
when its cooked, I mash it thorugh a sieve becuase I haven't got a stick blender
Serve with fresh coriander, saltfish or boiled bacon or lardons on top

For the bread I just take flour, s&p, dried coriander, a bit of baking powder and mix it all up with a bit of water then portion out and flaten and fry in a frying pan. Sometimes I add greek yoghurt to the mixture and sometimes I bake them in the oven.

Malaysian prawn curry sound delicious!

Easy fish pie tonight (lots of random opened frozen fish/prawns etc and potatoes need using up. Something on the George Forman grill tomorrow. Not decided what yet. Cheese toasties with whatever bits n pieces I can find in the fridge and freezer roulettes for lunches as I am clearing the fridge and freezer out. New fridge arriving next week.

We are getting our first takeaway for months tonight and I AM SO EXCITED! Nepalese, Thai or Vietnamese TBC. Tomorrow we are going to a friends for lunch and will probably have freezer pizza in the evening. Sunday I will make soup to last the week for lunch and then probably make a noodle dish or some sort of curry, it depends what we decide to order in tonight.

DH is making a lamb curry for supper tonight.

Usual Saturday morning of swimming and dancing for the DDs. DD1 has a party after and I'm going to watch some stunt horse riding with DD2. I ordered a pho recipe box for Saturday to celebrate 15 years since DH and I first met.

Lazy Sunday and quiche for supper - I have so many eggs to use up!

Ta @TaRaDeBumDeAy going to give that a go
@DialsMavis I can't remember the last time we had a takeaway so I'm excited for you
Prawn curry is a Mary Berry recipe but she uses chicken, it's the easiest thing to make and absolutely lush

Me and DP were meant to be taking it easy on a diet this weekend.

Instead, we're having vegan pizza and wedges tonight. With wine.

Then tomorrow, we're having a vegan beige buffet bonanza with dips, wine, chips, and salad.

I have no idea what we'll have on Sunday. But wine will happen.

popandchoc · 27/01/2023 16:00

We are going to harvester this evening after gymnastics.
Then tomorrow got swimming, tap and tumbling for kids. Then might do a bit of shopping in afternoon . Macaroni cheese for dinner.
Sunday no plans for doing anything or food yet.

TaRaDeBumDeAy · 27/01/2023 16:13

oooh I miss Harvester! (not in UK any more) I did like their breakfasts too.

emmathedilemma · 27/01/2023 16:20

chicken and broccoli carbonara tonight (don't @ me for being untraditional!) as the chicken needs using. No meals after that, will need to do a food shop Sat / Sun so will see what I can concoct from what's left in the fridge until then.

GingerLiberalFeminist · 27/01/2023 16:28

Batch cooked free from lasagne tonight as DP is out and I cba to cook.

DP is making a slow cooker curry tomorrow, he is excited and I am ambivalent! During the day we are going to garden centre, food shop and planting an apple tree. Probably club pittas for lunch (bacon, avocado and chicken with chutney).

Sunday we don't have any plans meal wise, depends what we buy shopping.

AragornsGirl · 27/01/2023 17:44

Tomato, spinach and olive gnocchi/filled pasta tomorrow, probably with garlic bread

cooked breakfast for dinner Sunday. One meal that guarantees clear plates all round!
