What’s for dinner tonight?

[bowsbunniesandbooks]

Inspiration post!

Mackerel with roasted tomatoes and greens of some sort, healthy kick before holidays!

Avocado and fried eggs on toast with loads of chili sauce. Then Greek yogurt and blueberries and honey

Roast veggies with couscous, rocket, goats cheese and harissa. I've just discovered Ottolenghi harissa (with pomegranate, rose and preserved lemon) it's delicious (and £5 a jar)

Chicken and vegetable tagine with cous cous. I wish I’d chosen something better suited for the weather actually but oh well.

Steaks with garlic/onion cream potatoes and red wine sauce

We had home made squash and chilli raviloi with spinach, black cabbage (I don’t know the real name), ginger and garlic then rather than a sauce we had a poached egg on top.

Pork stir fry made with pork loins, fresh broccoli, cauliflower and carrots and a chow mein packet sauce, with noodles and a pack of prawn crackers.

Egg curry with rice and a raita.

Tofu stir fry, roasted seaweed, tinned apricots and a satsuma!

Chicken Kiev, cauliflower cheese, sauté potatoes

Smokey bbq pringles and malteasers.
And wine.
Lots of wine.

Takeaway spag bol. I was ill on Friday/Saturday and there’s no food in the house!

I had some cooked Chinese chicken pieces with a ready prepared Asian quinoa and edamame salad. I was desperate for something healthy as we’re two weeks into a kitchen renovation and I’ve been living off sandwiches and left over Easter eggs!

Airfried roast pork with fennel & orange salad, chargrilled asparagus & buttered cheesy baton. Oh and lots of crackling. Vienetta for pudding.

We had a very simple dinner today, been out finishing bits off in the garden then homework with DS, DH isn't feeling great, so we just had new potatoes, green beans, tenderstem broccoli and griddled salmon fillets, I made a quick watercress sauce (watercress, lemon and creme fraiche blitzed then gently warmed). Strawberries for pudding, DS and DH had theirs with cream. All eaten in the garden.
I love it when the weather warms up.

Jacket potato and green cabbage. The joy of living alone

ASDA veggie burgers, rice and peas, plus some homemade coleslaw. It went down well.

Bangers and mash with onion gravy.

Cheesy cod and spinach gratin with crispy potatoes. It was delicious.

One pot Bolognese, I used tri colour fusilli instead of spaghetti and just chucked it in the sauce and let it cook instead of using another pan.

Superfood salad as we had McDonald’s for lunch! (Quinoa, lentils, spinach, kale, cucumber, peppers, carrot, beetroot, tomato - made a big batch for lunches during the week as it will just about last till weds if made on Sunday). If we hadn’t had McDonald’s I was planning a homemade curry (well homemade but using a jar of paste) so will have that tmrw instead.

I was going to do this but no one wants a meal so I made myself a cheese and tomato sandwich instead. Result.

massive salad, with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber, olives, radishes, chicken, hummus, artichokes, cashew nuts.

Jacket potato with Greek salad followed by strawberries

We had my fruity spiced chicken, which is all juicy with pineapple, coconut, beans and peppers 😋
