No inspiration and I have run out of ideas.

We had curry last night.

I have a cauliflower in the fridge.

What are you having and what should I buy in Tesco later?

Asparagus and Feta tart (on puff pastry). It's from the Waitrose Food magazine.

I'm making Italian chicken in beer using thigh fillets - its the worlds easiest recipe and everyone loves it as it makes its own gravy.

We’ve got sirloin steaks, bearnaise sauce, jersey royals and Parmesan roasted courgettes. I’m looking forward to it!

Chateaubriand (half price Donald Russell).

Jersey royals, vine cherry tomatoes and mushrooms cooked in truffle butter.

I have a two pan rule now for most meals to keep things simple.

Ohshitiveturnedintomymother · 05/05/2025 17:31

fish finger tacos - a rip off of the Wahaca kids menu ones. Basically pick and mix dinner with fish fingers, spicy mayo for me, plain for the kids, cheese, salads bits eg lettuce, grated carrots etc, cheese, pickled red cabbage in vinegar and mini soft tacos.
kids can pick the bits they actually want and I can eat the lot. Might get some tortilla chips too and possibly and avocado

MiddleAgedDread · 05/05/2025 17:46

Tandoori chicken, new potatoes and salad because I’ve eaten too much rich food this weekend!
