As many ideas as possible please! I'm having a mental cooking block and can't think!

Lentil bolognese with lots of veg in the sauce, and DH will add some meatballs as I’m veggie and he’s not!

We are going through a poke bowl kind of phase. Burrito bowls yesterday, sushi rice with avocado and leftover chicken today.

Nandos chicken kebab and wedges with wraps and salad.
Just using the nandos packet rub so it's a bit of a fakeaway vibe.

Green Thai curry and rice. I’m going to chuck on a spoon of Patak’s lime pickle (other brands are unsatisfactory), mango chutney and possibly a spoon of tamarind too, just for shits and giggles.

Steak for us, we normally have steak on a Friday night but I was out last night so it’s been delayed so I can have it too! With garlic butter, sautéed potatoes, broccoli, goats cheese stuffed mushrooms and bread. I’m low carbing though so no potatoes or bread for me!

One of my favourites ❤ enjoy!

I'm hoping DH will agree to a chinese takeaway. I've had a busy day and have nothing to cook that is quick and easy.
