night in on my own...what to cook?

[BarrelOfOtters]

My go to is spaghetti carbonara or mussels. What to eat for a rare night in on my own. Not takeaway as they are all a bit rubbish round my neck of the wood....

steak and chips

Baked camembert with chutney and crusty bread and some white wine. Oh and some black olives.

I would have a cheese platter with fresh baguette and chocolate cake for dessert. Less washing up and easily eatable in front of the tv!

Something that you love but that nobody else does?

Cheese platter is an awesome idea...

I might add a tomato for health.

some grapes maybe? (solid or liquid form 😉)

Definitely a cheese platter with lovely chutney , grapes and a nice port

If you go with the cheese you need all the accomplishments. Celery, grapes, a good selection of crackers, caramelised onion chutney, pickled onions, cocktail gherkins!

Penne alla vodka!

I have an evening with no one else to cook for this evening, the extravagant chef that I am will be preparing.....a crisp sandwich

I almost always go for a baked camembert, crusty bread, onion chutney and a glass of red wine. Easy, quick, minimal washing up and delicious.

Or I also really like toasting an english muffin, topping with fried mushrooms, peppercorn sauce and crumbling a bit of blue cheese over the top.

Hummus and toasted pitta bread. Damned if I'm cooking when I don't have to!

Flash fried scallops in butter with a squeeze of lemon juice, served on rocket or watercress. Maybe a Magnum for pudding!
