What did you have for dinner?

[LightsAndBaubles]

We finished off the ham with mash, peas, carrots and parsley sauce.

No turkey today!!!

Chicken and feta tray bake. Followed by a random assortment of various desserts.

This, but with the addition of honey roasted parsnips. Lovely thick gravy made with the meat juices.

Roast lamb, garlic mini roast potatoes, peas, French beans and gravy.

About to have St Clements trifle for pudding.

Roasted veg and red lentil soup with a garlic naan

We went out for an Indian. Home now for the last of the cheesecake.

Chicken and chips with salad, roasted peppers and roasted tomatoes

Don’t worry I think (hope!) the majority can infer! 🤭🤣

We had a chicken satay with rice, was lovely.

Home-made Slow-cooker Beef casserole using up the 8p carrots and shallots from Lidl. With mash, green and dumplings.

It was cheap because I’d bought a piece of silverside for £6.50 in the pre-Christmas special offers and chopped it in half and froze it. So it made two casseroles, and much nicer than the stewing steak I normally shell out for which is usually scrappy tiny pieces.

Spicy prawn satay noodle salad.

Lamb shanks, roasties, stir fry veg in soy sauce and some sprouts.

Been out all day with the kids so I just did sausages, mash, veg and a massive Yorkshire pudding to share with onion gravy.

Trifle for dessert.

Deluxe macaroni and cheese, homemade, and jalapeno and cheese sausages with whole wheat dinner rolls and butter.
Oh and DH, who I can never fill up, had a big steamy bowl of the turkey veg soup I made today.
Jelly and whipped cream for afters.

Tesco Thai fish cakes, chips and a salad. I've just chucked the last of the leftovers....

DH made spag bol, which was very welcome when I came in freezing from the livery yard.

Had some Reese’s pieces leftover from an advent calendar afterwards.

Spinach and cheese Wellingtons with potatoes. I've had enough meat over Christmas so fancied something vegetarian.

Salmon en croute with veg

Been full on garlic chilli ginger spice hits last two nights here (can only do x3 days max of potato meat cheese).

There was some wholewheat Chinese noodles involved as well

Family here for buffet.
My chilli, rice, wedges, garlic bread, salad, homemade coleslaw. Huge cheese board with crackers. Tiramisu, cream, cheesecake, ice cream, nibbles, chocolate.

All very full and lots of laughs! Playing Twister on a full tum isn’t recommended!

Cullen Skink, or smoked haddock and potato soup for those unfamiliar with this Scottish delicacy 😁

Roast leg of lamb, roast potatoes, parsnips, broccoli, sweetcorn, mangetout, Yorkshire puddings and lashings of gravy and mint sauce. It’s Christmas dinner here as DD came home. We also had crackers 🎉

Chicken stew, with pearl barley

We ate the Christmas cheese and pate leftovers. 🤢

BBQ-glazed honey mustard sausage tray bake with spicy chips and broccoli. A Hello Fresh meal.

Honey soy salmon darne with honey soy stirfry veg and garlic butter cubed potatoes

Finished the last vestiges of a truly great turkey yesterday ( pots of soup now in the freezer) so had the last remaining Xmas purchase of smoked salmon with scrambled eggs. Maltesers for pudding.
