What I've just eaten

[BiggyJ]

Came home after a long day at work.
DH had cooked a lovely pasta carbonara but I just didn't fancy it.
Instead I airfryed a beer battered cod fillet and had half a tin of spaghetti hoops.
It was bloody delicious 😄

What hits the spot for you?

Oh that sounds nice. A scotch pie and baked beans is my go to comfort.

All about the ham and cheese toasties at the moment.

That sounds so good. We had a late lunch so weren’t planning dinner, but I’m starving so 5 fish fingers are in the air fryer. 4 for the sandwich (white bread, ketchup) and one to eat on the way to sitting down to eat said sandwich.

These all sound amazing.
Good thing there's no bread in the house otherwise I would...

Was he offended?

Heinz tomato soup with cheese on toast. Sliced bread cut into quarters. 2 slices.

I think I love you.

Dh works away a lot and if I can't be bothered I have;
Fish finger sandwich on where bread with mayo/mushy peas
Onion bhaji wrapped in mini naan with spicy relish
Roast new potatoes/jacket potato and egg mayo (don't knock it til you try it! I put red onion or spring onion and pepper or mustard in the egg mayo...)

white bread 😬

@Absentosaur No! Should he have been?!

@potato08 I'd be happy with any/all of that.

Does anyone have any minstrels?
I want some now.

Not particularly! I might’ve been put out if I’d made tea for us and you dumped it for a better option that’s all

I ate a packet of MandMs for lunch today. I didn’t enjoy it and wished they were Maltesers.

So would I. If I had cooked for DH and he decided to make something else instead I wouldn't have been pleased.

Chopped egg, onion and laughing cow mixed together is delicious in a jacket potato. Used to have something similar in Spud u Like as a treat when I was a student 35 years ago😅

Two Dundee rolls with roast beef.

@Absentosaur He was a bit bemused at the spaghetti hoops bit, otherwise not fussed.
Sometimes we just don't fancy what's been cooked, so it's up to the person who doesn't fancy it to sort themselves out with whatever's available.
I don't think my choice was the "better option" at all, hence this thread 😅

I'd pick maltesers over M&Ms too!

Yeah, I mean that was pretty rude to not eat the lovely meal that DH had cooked. But glad you enjoyed your spaghetti hoops 😕

@RampantIvy @ReadingSoManyThreads it works both ways.
Sometimes he doesn't fancy what I've cooked either and will make whatever he wants.

Curry flavored Supernoodles, the cheap Aldi version!

I love carbonara and loathe spaghetti hoops so can't really get behind your choice, but it's kind of sweet that you have a nice relaxed relationship where he wasn't offended that what he cooked didn't happen to float your boat this evening.

Thanks @SafeSex
We're in our 50s, been together for over 25 years, married for 21 of those, and produced two DCs so I think we're OK with each other's choices!
Especially as it's not a regular thing it happens.
And I can't think of the last time I had spaghetti hoops (or 'loops' as it says on the tin, who knew 🤷‍♀️).
