I fell face first into a filthy but tasty burger delivery from Deliveroo as I’m PMSing and feeling like hell.

i want to make better decisions and get out of my weekly rut, so want ideas of what you had for dinner tonight!

if you also had a takeaway then that’s cool too some solidarity will also be good for my fragile mood 😅

Cheese tortellini, broccoli, sundried tomatoes, parmesan.

AntaresAltered · 24/05/2025 03:18

A salad of tomato, red onion, cucumber, mandarin oranges, feta cheese, chopped pistachios and honey.

Gingerkittykat · 24/05/2025 04:32

I suddenly got a craving for macaroni cheese, and it was amazing. I followed it with two oranges.

We had a slow cooker beef Massaman curry and a sweet potato version for veggie DS. Trying to clear the freezer and it’s too hot for stew!

ANGIEPANGY77 · 24/05/2025 04:42

Crockpot turkey, stuffing and peas.

Mumtobabyhavoc · 24/05/2025 04:43

Rotisserie chicken on a brioche roll, grapes, strawberries and a corn on the cob.
That was, of course, after a hot dog, a couple pieces of (mediocre) California roll, a few fries and a bit of Pepsi a short while earlier.
It had been a long day...

SweetBaklava · 24/05/2025 04:49

Homemade pizzas followed by takeaway from local waffle house… fluffy waffles with toppings and ice cream 🤤🤤🤤
Like the OP, I am also PMS’ing 😬

GoldLash · 24/05/2025 05:09

I had a huge bowl of salad and a couple of buttered slices of my homemade bread. I actually couldn’t even finish my salad.

i fell asleep ridiculously early and my tummy is now hurting so I’m going to make a cup of tea, turn on the filter coffee machine and make some marmalade on toast or make some scrambled egg’s. I’m not quite sure which

Proper (for us) 'friday night dinner'. This week was roast chicken, new potatoes and a table full of salads and veg sides. And of course challah and wine (or grape juice). After a busy week with different schedules and often wing-it meals we all look forward to sitting together and talking over each other! 😂

Hatty65 · 24/05/2025 15:54

@Icanheartheplanesnow The egg noodles were Blue Dragon - but I've used Sharwood's as well and they are good.

I'm also quite happy with Tesco own brand!

Applenation · 24/05/2025 15:59

Homemade pizza last night, mutton tagine tonight. Just prepping it now Grin

DilemmaDelilah · 24/05/2025 16:39

Yesterday.... A very delicious half-home-made chicken curry with rice, naan and poppadoms.

Today - burgers in buns!

aperollingintotheweekend · 24/05/2025 21:43

Any night goes.. still happy for any dinner inspo!

Tonight i had chicken and veg skewers with potato salad, so i take that as a win 😬

Chicken cacciatore with tagliatelle.

beezlebubnicky · 24/05/2025 21:46

Pork loin steaks with a creamy apple and cider sauce, served with chips and green beans. It was bloody lovely.

JulesJules · 24/05/2025 21:46

Lettuce risotto from the Mumsnet cookbook - I add garlic, lemon juice and a glass of white wine

Crikeyalmighty · 24/05/2025 21:48

Salmon teriyaki , jasmine rice and mange tout and spring onion cooked with Japanese spice

StrangewaysHereWeCome · 24/05/2025 21:49

Stir-fry noodles with crispy tofu, broccoli, pak choi, peas, edamame, and carrots. Little bar od Aldi dark chocolate. I have shockingly high cholesterol at the moment and trying to reduce my cheese addiction meat and dairy intake.

AdaColeman · 24/05/2025 21:49

Pimms and nuts, then peas with mint & watercress, new potatoes and ham, followed by profiteroles with raspberries and cream.

maddiemookins16mum · 24/05/2025 21:50

We had Ribeye steaks with new potatoes and salad.

RedBeech · 24/05/2025 21:51

I had home made chicken curry with spicy green beans and garlic spinach, and a zero alcohol beer.

Then I finished a piece of work that had been hanging over me and ruined my healthy dinner with a glass of wine and a big slice of millionaire's shortbread.

UseNailOil · 24/05/2025 21:56

All fried up in a frying pan with olive oil:
Chopped chicken breast, courgette, cherry tomatoes and red onion - with quinoa, harissa and lemon juice.
Topped with Greek yoghurt and fresh dill

Smittenkitchen · 24/05/2025 21:59

I had falafel lettuce wraps with hummus and babaganoush, cherry tomatoes, quick pickled onion, chipotle Tabasco.

@aperollingintotheweekend I do confess it was courtesy of the simply cook spice kits - sprinkled some black sesame seeds on it too / totally delicious- I use them twice a week - my H says it’s like going out for restaurant food but way way cheaper
