What's for dinner?

[FeelingLessTired]

I am thinking of doing a roast chicken with all the trimmings. DS1 is revising and it is a favourite of his. Tomorrow I am doing my Sunday standard of lamb pilaf.

Salmon & broccoli quiche, spinach & pine nut pasta salad, some random greenery & tomatoes etc. Possibly garlic bread if I can be bothered.

Oh that sounds really really good.

This Gorgonzola, leek and Walnut Orzotto
with green beans and tenderstem broccoli.

Salmon, probably with a creamy sauce. Boiled or mashed potatoes and broccoli or cauliflower.

But I like the sound of salmon broccoli quiche as posted by PP, which I could knock up no problem 🤔

Chicken shawarma with shredded lettuce and diced tomatoes and skinny fries. Simple and does the job, Bob !

Spaghetti with leftover bolognese. Probably. I'm on my own this weekend and not feeling particularly well, so it might just be a bowl of cereal.

Chicken thigh casserole with mash and tenderstem broccoli on the side. Nice and easy and (at least one of) the kids will eat it too!

I'm going to treat myself to something from M&S

All lovely ideas.

I vetoed the idea of chicken as DS was not keen in tthe end. So I am doing slow cooked beef short ribs with mashed potatos, braised leeks and honey sesame carrots.

Not had salmon for ages though so that needs to be on the agenda this week i think.

Brie, bacon and cranberry filled bagels with halloumi fries and some salad bits. Kids all want plain pasta and cheese or baked potato.

New recipe from IG for gyros munchie box:

• pork and lots of herbs are in the slow cooker
• lemon & herb chips
• homemade flatbreads
• Greek salad
• airfried halloumi &
• tzatziki

House is smelling lovely cannot wait to give it all a try.

We have a chicken roasting in the oven but have covered it in curry paste and serving it with rice and a coconut gravy made with the chicken juices, coconut milk and some more curry paste. It's really easy and requires less faff than a full on roast

Prawn curry but with sauce from a jar because I’m in an air b&b. At home I’d do it from scratch. Also coconut rice from a packet. I’m starving!! Enjoy your delicious sounding meals, everyone!

Battered fish, rice, sweetcorn and peas.

Takeaway- me and the kids are having fish and chips (and mushy peas for me!) And husband us having a giant mixed kebab with chips

Homemade beef steak chilli which has been in the slow cooker since 10am and is smelling divine! Will serve with rice, sour cream and garlic bread 😊

Lasagne and salad tonight.
Tomorrow is pork tenderloin cooked with honey and garlic.

Salmon on the bbq with potato salad, salad etc and rose.

Chinese takeaway tonight
Roast chicken with roast potatoes and salad tomorrow

I made Mapo Tofu tonight but with chicken mince instead of Pork. I love the buzz of szechuan pepper!

A range of curries. I have do abit carried away so we will be eating them all week 😋

Spanish omelette here.

We are having roast chicken, new potatoes, salad, coleslaw, crusty bread and sweetcorn for the kids who don’t like salad.

Ive also got some hummus leftover so might throw that on the table as well.

Oh and roasted asparagus that was in the fridge and needed using.

strange combo tonight but using up bits

Beef strips done in chipotle, fajitas and salad with salsa and sour cream. It's the Saturday night staple and my favourite meal of the week.
