We are having this;

with baguette.

I cannot wait. It looks so so easy. And I need easy.

Chicken thighs, haven’t decided how to cook them yet, salad.

Ooh I did chicken thighs yesterday. I cooked them in onions and mushrooms and passata then added cream and served with rice.

It was the leftover cream that inspired tonight's dish. I had leftover cream I did not want to go to waste- so had to then buy prawns and gnocchi.

and baguette.

With a few tweaks, to do with what's in the fridge and more veg. Kids surprise themselves every time by loving it!

Sausage pasta bake 😋. I fry chopped up sausages with onion, garlic, parsley, tomato puree, grated hard italian cheese and dried mixed herbs, then mix with pasta in seasoned sauce. Top with more Italian cheese and cheddar then bake for 15 mins. So delicious 😍

Hot dogs 🌭

We are on annual leave, want it simple, bugger all washing up and the 16 and 21 year old will enjoy them.

Left over roast beef but with chips and gravy its my favourite .

i love hotdogs.

My favourite ever hangover breakfast was hotdogs with grated cheese, dried onions, american mustard and jalapeno poppers.

I'd like to say this was when i was at university.

It was 2 weeks ago and I am 50.

Everyone is out so I am having M&S mac and cheese and will be stirring through a spoon of marmite.

I also love hotdogs it's the only thing I like ketchup on.

I'm having the last of chickpea and potato curry I batch cooked over the weekend

Probably fish fingers and chips for the kids

Nicely done!! 😁

I'm having the last of chickpea and potato curry I batch cooked over the weekend

Curry, bolognaise, stews, etc. always taste so much better days after being cooked.

Potato salad (home made), salad leaves and beetroot with Sainsbury’s TTD Middle Eastern style koftas

Venison burgers, skin on home made skinny fries, fennel carrot and apple coleslaw.

Dal. With paratha. And a really spicy temper made with tomatoes and green chillies.

I'm making a smoked salmon quiche, new potatoes and some of our runner beans from the garden. That's for the meaters, I'm having a mob dish: www.mob.co.uk/recipes/nduja-fried-rice

I use Belazu vegan n'duja paste and I've cooked the rice rather than use a sachet (though I've made it before with a sachet of rice and it does make it an incredibly quick dish to make.) I make it quite often, it's known as 'spicy ricey' 😁

Fish fingers and chips for ds, but he'll probably have a bit of my salad too.

I'm having warm falafels, with salad made of Lettuce, baby plum tomatoes, feta, olives, and red peppers with a herby mint yogurt dressing. I might throw a pitta in the toaster too.

I'm going to make double and take it to work tomorrow when it will probably taste even better.

That shrimp gnocchi looks so good. Next time I have leftover mashed potato, I'll make gnocchi, then I'll only have to buy cream and prawns-I'm bound to have a lemon!!🤣

This is ours tonight. I serve it with Naan, Raita and Patak's Mango chutney

I'm ill with covid. Hoped DH would make me something but he's just said "don't worry I've found some curry me and DS can eat for dinner" To be fair he's assumed I'm not hungry but still...

Beef stir fry in hot sweet chilli and soy sauce with noodles

Good old spag bol, DH hated it for years, but now quite likes it, so all 4 of us have it, with leftovers for DS2 to take to work for lunch for 2 days. Going on holiday on Friday, so trying to eat what’s in the freezer.

Homemade chilli, which I don't really like to be honest but DS23 eats with us on his days off from work (the rest of the time he eats rubbish because he doesn't finish work until 7pm) and chilli is his favourite. He's annoyed me today but as I'm such a good mum 😇 I will still make it.

Macaroni cheese. I'm cooking tonight and can't really be bothered, but I promised DH mac and cheese so I'll do it. Wish I'd said cheese on toast!
