Always like these threads for inspiration. We may be having McDonald’s but if not some ideas would be good.

Fried egg and bacon sandwiches on sourdough- literally can't wait . We usually have fish and jacket spud on Thursday.

Ghost92 · 22/02/2024 17:17

We just had smoky chicken fajitas and a few hash brown waffles on the side - bloody lovely!

Well I'm off for the weekend tomorrow and have too much in my fridge about to go out of date (last minute trip). So I'll take some stuff with me but I think I'll have the two days out of date salad and up today stuffed mushrooms, fry up some chorizo for flavour and texture. I got this odd cheese covered bready pretzel thing (shaped like a long roll, not twisted like a pretzel) from Lidl earlier to have with it.

Scampi , fries and mushies

Home made lentil and bacon soup, with some pasta cooked into it, and melted cheese on top. And the best bit is I made it on Monday, so no effort this evening.

An Ottolenghi Chick Pea recipe.
If you’re considering McD’s though it’s probably not your thing

VenusClapTrap · 22/02/2024 17:21

Dunno. A quick scan of the pantry and it’s looking like something involving chickpeas.

VenusClapTrap · 22/02/2024 17:22

Cross post with @OverTheGrip - can I have your recipe?!

SameSameButDeliverance · 22/02/2024 17:23

Carrot and parsnip soup with pan fried chicken breast on a bagel.

One dc has requested risotto. The other one hates it so he will have chicken dippers - for shame Blush Wink

TheChosenTwo · 22/02/2024 17:25

Spiced chicken, probably grilled, dirty rice and flatbreads and a salad to use up loads of stuff in the salad drawer.
Dh is cooking and has made the bread dough and now lighting a fire - we’ll probably eat at about 8.

TheChosenTwo · 22/02/2024 17:27

@OverTheGrip i love the ottolenghi chickpea confit AND McDonalds! It’s possible for both to be your thing 😂

Nellieinthebarn · 22/02/2024 17:27

H/m chicken kebab and vegetable rice and a salad.

neleh87 · 22/02/2024 17:27

Sweet potato macaroni cheese from Hello Fresh.

TheChosenTwo · 22/02/2024 17:27

@VenusClapTrap if you make the chickpea recipe don’t be tempted to skimp on the oil; it’s really needed and absolutely delicious 😋

OverTheGrip · 22/02/2024 17:29

@TheChosenTwo

😂 yes. But not me!

PickAChew · 22/02/2024 17:31

I've thawed the legs I saved off the duck roast we had at Christmas and the meat will be combined with a bag of stir fry and some gluten free hoisin sauce, served with rice and spring rolls.

Buzzer3555 · 22/02/2024 17:35

Fish and chips from the chippy

VenusClapTrap · 22/02/2024 17:35

Awesome. I’ve sent that to DH and told him to crack on while I do the school run and pick up limes on the way back.

Marmite27 · 22/02/2024 17:38

Spanish chicken, crispy potatoes, lemon/garlic broccoli and green beans.

WinterLobelia · 22/02/2024 17:40

God I LOVE McDonalds. I am recently diagnosed coeliac and McDonalds is my main regret.

I am doing sausage rolls, baked beans, sweet corn, carrot sticks, garlic bread and macaroni bites for the Dcs. DS1 has food issues and won't eat much but this will go down and i've lost all inspiration. I'm genuinely exhausted with trying to find something DS1 will eat.

I'm having a lamb stew out of the freezer and rice which i have added turmeric, garlic granules, sweet paprika and chilli flakes to to make it more interesting.

Spain is your friend for McDonald's. Bit pricey for a delivery but consider it for a holiday.

WinterLobelia · 22/02/2024 17:45

Really? they do GF McDonalds in Spain? based on that alone I might book a trip!!

WinterLobelia · 22/02/2024 17:46

Oh i just googled. [salivates].
