What are you having for dinner?

[fleo]

Sick of the same if things. We eat too many carbs and not enough fibre and protein. What are you having for dinner?! I need inspiration please!

Pizza for us today. Unless I can persuade everyone to go to our very good pub for their very good roast.

We didn’t have tomato puree either! Tinned toms and tomato puree are perfectly interchangeable in the context of this and many other recipes requiring a tomato sauce.

Please would you share the recipe? Or is it your own creation?

Another shoutout for Simply Cook, had Keralan seafood curry Friday night, tonite we’ve having duck breasts(pan fry quickly then stick in oven x20mins)with baby potatoes & tenderstem broccoli

@80smonster it's my own creation that's has evolved over the years to adapt to the family. I use 5%steak mince, onion, garlic, couple of peppers chopped in and fried together. Once the mince is browned I add a generous amount of tomato puree, couple of teaspoons of chipotle paste and chilli powder to taste. Then top up with boiling water to mix it in and a carton of passata (the kids didn't like lumps of tomato when they were little). Then finally throw in grated courgette and a grated carrot and simmer for a while. Then hollow out the peppers and fill them with the chilli and top with cheese and put them in the air fryer for 20 mins. ☺️

Mince, dumplings, mash and veg. It's wet, cold and dark. I need comfort food, the fire lit and a glass of wine.

It’s cold, windy and raining here so am having comfort winter food tonight. Steak and stout stew with cheese scone dumplings, a Yorkshire pud, petit pois and carrots - can’t wait.

Tomorrow, I’ll be batch cooking a sort of chilli/bolognaise mix - tomorrow’s portion will probably be with some rice.

YMCA (love that!)
Buttery mash, bread sauce, sausages, tomatoes roasted with basil. Sriracha. Pint of low alcohol beer.
Contemplating hunting for masses of leftover sweet carbs to go with brandy butter, but cba at the mo.

A chicken and salad wrap, and another wrap with butter and marmalade. Not very seasonal but I can't be arsed!

Toad in the hole made with chipolatas, rosemary and whole meal flower with mashed celeriac, cabbage and gravy

Sushi bowls (packet cooked sticky rice, soy sauce semane seeds, chopped avocado, cucumber, smoked salmon, seaweed sheets)

Lasagne and garlic bread here tonight!

Classic! Enjoy your meal 😋

He's having pie surprise (he tends to put leftovers in an individual pie, using a hairy bikers pie maker, so I'll grab one from the freezer. Could be beef casserole,venison casserole, or some chicken thing I think from the current stock. No way of telling from the outside. I'll have a cod fillet in a foil parcel. Chips and mushy peas for both of us.

DCs are having jacket potatoes with cheese, a slice of leftover vegetable pizza each, broccoli and carrots. Odd combo I know but they will eat it.

I have pasta pesto. It's a 'tired and leftovers will do' kind of day.

Chilli tonight (I use lots of veg in mine )

Chicken thighs and salad of cucumber, walnuts, avocado and feta cheese. I’m on a healthy eating thing

Marry me butter beans, garlic bread (none for me as slimming after Christmas and holiday excess) and rocket salad

I’m doing fish curry. Might do this recipe for a change but with fish and more veggies. Cheers

I can’t be arsed tonight, in a foul mood. Am going to cook fingers, chips and beans. I can’t wait! Comfort food.

A great choice!

Agree. I had a bad day last week and a fishfinger sandwich cheered me right up. Got to be captain bird's-eye though!
