What's for tea/dinner/supper/evening meal tonight?

[TheTecknician]

I've been lucky and done well with Chinese food in the supermarkets' reduced sections. So I've got beef in black bean sauce from Morrison's, special fried rice from Waitrose and chilli and coriander noodles from M&S. Not too shabby!

Picked up a Thai meal from M&S for 12.50, much cheaper than a takeaway.

Spatchcock chicken currently marinading in the fridge in BBQ sauce, southern curly fries and either Caesar salad or mac&cheese depending on whether I can be arsed to go the shops or not…

Making salmon and lemon linguine. Just realised I don't have any garlic bread to go with it.

We have friends coming over for Thanksgiving dinner (🇨🇦). Working Monday so having it today
Turkey & all the trimmings followed by pumpkin & apple pie. I love it,. just like Christmas without the gifts and stress 🦃🦃

No its not me but I want to be lol !

Mutton curry, simmering away for the last couple of hours with aludam potatoes
It smells amazing but DSD doesn’t finish work til 8 so got ages to wait 😫

Chicken tikka massala, potato and cauliflower curry and garlic and coriander naan . Got both mango pickle and sweet chutney too, Yum!

It's my DH's birthday and he wants Indian Takeaway so I'll be having a curry!

Fish chips peas

Butter chicken, made in the slow cooker. A family favourite. Bought some naans and rice to go with it.

Rest of the slow cooker beef stew I made yesterday, with mash and sprouts.

Hot Honey Halloumi Pasta, with some chicken added, because it needs to be used up.

So much good food. I've already made tomorrow evening's tuck - a kind of chicken, mushroom and ham lasagne. Sitting in the bottom of the fridge, ready for the oven.

Jacket potato with leftover bolognaise here. A lazy tea!

Beef and mushroom stew and dumplings, veg and my special gravy sauce, started in my slow cooker at lunchtime. Might even be some left over for tomorrow!

I found some mince in my freezer so I am making a Bolognese. Wanted to cook something from scratch after eating oven food and pot noodles all week (mad week with work and hospital visiting). But I also didn't want to go to too much effort, so Bolognese was the perfect solution! Got a big block of cheddar too and will generously grate that on to it.

Got no onions, bacon or mushrooms in (mad week = minimal shopping), and these are normally things I put it Bolognese (I know everyone's recipe varies) but it should still be nice - the mince was yellow label and a better grade than I normally buy!

Nigella's rapid lamb ragu with jacket potatoes and green veg.

I'm enjoying the move to more autumnal weather and more comfort food type dishes.

Jamie's meatballs and garlic bread and wine. Had Spoons for lunch as we were at a uni open day but I'm starving already

Husband is in charge of dinner tonight, so he’s chosen to cook cheese, onion and potato pie with steak, peppercorn sauce and some corn on the cob. Then a rhubarb crumble with vanilla ice cream.

I’ve currently got Delia’s beef in beer in the oven. It smells great. DH bought proper shin beef from the butchers this morning so it should be fab. Really simple recipe, shin beef, onions, pale ale, thyme, bay leaf and garlic. Also lit the log burner so feeling very autumnal.

Really want a beef stew and dumplings now, rather than the glorified cheese on toast I was planning on 😂😂😂

We are having chicken in black bean sauce, noodles and veg stir fry
(mange tout, yellow and red pepper, beansprouts, spinach, spring onion, carrot)

Cooked from raw ingredients (apart from the noodles which were from Aldi).

I'm counting calories and tracking what I eat!

We love gammon and pineapple. It's a fave for ds, 20.

I haven't had gammon for months so I must buy it again soon. I'll try cooking a gammon steak in the oven as my grilling attempts aren't always that good. Best of all is a gammon joint bought from the butcher and oven roasted. A bit pricey but goes a long way.

Pork stir fry 😋
