What’s for dinner (or tea) in your house tonight?

We had takeaway last night so thinking we should have something else tonight but want something nice while we watch Strictly. It’s my birthday tomorrow so DH will say my choice but I don’t want to make any more choices so hoping for inspiration here!

a bottle of lucozade sport, healthy 😅feeling sick and just can’t face cooking for myself! The what’s your favourite crisp thread is tempting me to order a chippy though with lashings of salt, as I don’t have any crisps in and you can’t beat a good chip butty to hit that salty potatoy spot.

Salmon fillets with Mediterranean veg .

We were out for lunch so having baked Camembert with crusty bread from the farmers market this evening 🤤

Pork roast. Pork had todays date on and I didn’t want to put it in the freezer 🙈

Chinese takeaway. I have to drive to collect it as we live in the back of beyond and they don't deliver.

Lamb hot pot with winter veg on the side

Anjo2011 · 02/11/2024 17:50

Chicken tikka masala

Lasagne, had taken hours but is looking lovely in the oven.

DD has been poorly and doesn’t eat very much at the best times (teenager) and she really fancied it, so I happily obliged

Sainsbury's four cheese and caramelised red onion pizza, with extra a bits as they are stingy on the ingredients

I love the cream cheese stuffed peppers on them

Stellaellaella · 02/11/2024 17:52

Pasta with courgette and broccoli, garlic, olive oil and shit loads of Parmesan x

Halloumi kebabs with sweet chilli sauce and salad.

Fireworks and then a Nando’s delivery. We’ve lit the patio heaters so the DCs can toast some marshmallows.

DP is making curry tonight, butter chicken, side of saag aloo, jeera rice and raita. Amazing smells are coming from the kitchen and I can't wait cos I'm starving

Thewalrusandthecarpenter · 02/11/2024 18:04

A very large bowl of porridge with cocoa powder stirred in.

Judellie · 02/11/2024 18:12

Did a roast dinner in the end. Just finished it as taking DD to her friend's party shortly.

Boltonb · 02/11/2024 18:18

Our go to when we have pretty much nothing in the house. Linguine puttanesca. Usually we’d have a salad too, but there is really nothing in the fridge, so it’s all pantry stuff.

gingercat02 · 02/11/2024 18:20

We are on clear out the freezer for Christmas mode, so fajitas leftovers, freshened up with some extra veg and (obs) fresh tortillas and sides

gingercat02 · 02/11/2024 18:22

I was out for lunch for my mums birthday, so I had fishcakes, greens, and creamy white wine sauce, so I'm not really hungry.

poetryandwine · 02/11/2024 18:23

Yum, @Stellaellaella !

DH is doing tuna steaks with sauce, garlicky green beans and rice. Blue cheese and ripe pear. About to open the wine.

JustAnonymous · 02/11/2024 18:27

I'm on my own tonight, so have reserved a carvery through TooGoodToGo to pick up on a bit of couldn't be bothered cooking tonight, but can't really justify the cost of a take away.

BintuBombatu · 02/11/2024 18:27

Full Sunday roast 😁

Had everything in for tomorrow but then plans had to change unexpectedly so having it tonight instead.

Roast lamb

HighHeelsOnCobblestones · 02/11/2024 18:30

We’re also doing a Sunday roast on a Saturday night 😁

DancingFerret · 02/11/2024 18:32

Stroganoff with either rice or tagliatelle accompanied by a glass or two of Argentinian Malbec.

NorthernChinchilla · 02/11/2024 18:35

Made a chicken, ham and leek pie, to be served with roast mini spuds (DH) or mash (me).
Also made a red berry meringue roulade for dessert. Hand whipped it all, so recovering with a G&T!
