What’s For Dinner?

[SunshineLollipopsAndRainbows]

I’m having foil baked salmon with rosemary, DH foil baked boneless chicken thighs with oregano then we’re both having mini jacket potatoes with garlic & something I can’t remember plus fine beans. The spuds are from Lidl & can be fried.

I love these threads and often plan next weeks meals from them.
Tonight we're having chicken biryani with cashews and coriander.

I love them too! So much inspiration. I’ve got to go out now but later I’ll write up my plans for the next few days in case anyone needs an idea for a meal or two.

I have turkey steaks so will make some kind of turkey burgers. Either peri peri breaded or else spicy balti.

we sometimes scatter some pancettta bits in the layers when not feeding veggies....

if you want to go milder on the blue cheese, camboloza or st agur work well too.

Jacket potatoes, Heinz bbq beans, cheese and pepper.

We had jerk chicken drumsticks with couscous that had lots of veg including spinach in it..

Actually - @clearsommespace please can you give me a minestrone recipe? DP and I were talking about it yesterday in that we hadn't had it for years, and the soup freezer draw needs an update ;-)

Pork chop smothered with onions and fried tomatoes with mustard mash, broccoli and gravy

Dahl and rice. My favourite.

Ready made lasagna with roast new potatoes and salad

@murasaki
Thank you! I have printed it.

My minestrone is a veggie version of this but I tweak every time

Always more garlic and no pancetta
No courgette because not in season
Always cook the tomato base for much longer than 30 minutes with a parmeson rind for flavour
I add waxy potato cubes about 20 minutes before the end
This batch has frozen green beans snapped into pieces rather than cabbage / greens. I added them at the same time as the pasta.

Tonight- Jacket potatoes with roasted veggies and cheese

Tomorrow- Spicy quorn and mango chutney wraps, with homemade wedges and salad. (I normally make them with chicken, but have veggies guests staying)

Sunday- aiming for a roast, but will see how the day goes.

So apparently its not Friday, it is still only Thursday. Whoops!

Will do a bacon and cheese pasta bake for Friday then

Leftover bean chilli from last night, but on spaghetti to mix it up. Topped with lots of salady things and tortilla chips.

Chicken and Leek Risotto.

So easy, and very tasty - it's our go-to quick tea.

Roast chicken, roasted potatoes, carrots, parsnips and stuffing balls, steamed “whatever green veg is in the fridge” and gravy. Sounds like hard work but it’s actually an easy mid week staple round here, it cooks itself until the last five minutes.

Remember Shirkey Valentine?

@clearsommespace thanks, looks tasty! And thanks for the tips, I'd prefer green beans too. Will.give it a go!

Chicken chasseur. It’s been in the slow cooker for six hours.

Cod loin and harissa lentil & chickpea stew, no pud, might make a banana & walnut loaf later though.

DCs go to their dad’s tomorrow and I’ll be at DP’s for the weekend, so we are on the dregs of this week’s food shop.
So we had beige, freezer crapas 🤷🏻‍♀️😂
Chips, dinosaur nuggets, a few lonely flipper dippers and beans.
Peak nutrition 😬😬🙈

Chips and egg.

We make the 'chips' by par boiling cubed potato for a few mins and then roasting them (basically little roast potatoes).
We fry the eggs so that the undersides are all brown and crispy 😋

The mummy on antibiotics, toast with pork sausage and beans from a tin, delicacy.

They love it, no hidden vegetables!

Chased with jam donuts.

We're having Chinese takeaway
