Whats for dinner

[Theyikesdyke]

Thought i'd share as im pretty sure people will be shocked.

Im eating leftovers from a Chinese i ordered with a friend on Saturday...its Tuesday.

It was fine and no rice was consumed.

I am now sick to death of chinese food and wont be ordering it again anytime soon!!!

Go on whats for dinner ?

--- reason i think people will be shocked, because ive seen the iconic "pearl clutchers" discuss chinese leftovers previously. Im not unreasonable it was good !!!

Mince with doughballs for me and tatties for OH. He doesn't like doughballs and I don't like boiled tatties.

Cajun salmon steaks with Cajun fried rice (with red onion, diced carrots and sun-dried tomatoes and a bit of soy sauce).

I do hope that's two courses!

I CBA tonight so either chicken noodle soup or cereal. Followed by fruit so there's some nutritional value.

Cajun chicken pasta, I add peppers, courgette and peas

Dead easy, one of DS favs, and will keep until DH is back from his run

Home made chicken and veg pastry pie with home made fried chips 😃

Pork and fennel meatballs in tomato sauce with pasta and salad.

I forgot to take the chicken out of the freezer this morning (stuck some legs in a vac bag with nandos sauce last week, was going to have with spicy rice and corn cobs). Popped to aldi on my way home and picked up a reduced spinach cannelloni and a box of pre made salad. Tbh after the day ive had a work im not sure I had enough energy to make the chicken, sticking the cannelloni in the air fryer took it out of me 😂🙈

Carrot, celery and asparagus risotto

Weetabix

I totally eat leftover rice. I’m not fussy.

Tonight for dinner we had rigatoni with a garlic cream sauce and tenderstem broccoli. Kids also had garlic bread. I’m going through cancer treatment and it’s painful to swallow 😩 so I also had very cold rice pudding because it doesn’t burn like everything else does.

Braising steak with onions and carrots and a thick gravy done in the slow cooker, with mashed potatoes and peas. I’d not done braising steak for years but MIL said she was having it the other day and it made me really fancy it.

Garlic chicken, cheesy mash and green beans

Ooh, yes to the left over Chinese!

Sausage/red pepper/green bean/tomato casserole here with the butteriest of mashes. Delicious, but doesn't go so well with prawn crackers. 😆

Homemade pizza 🍕 with salads. Yum 😋

we had sausage tray bake, sausages, sweet potato, red onion, peppers and courgettes. My kids were horrified and the 10 year old wanted to make his own mash and veg to go with the sausages. I love cooking for my grateful family. So blessed.

We had jacket potatoes with tuna mayo, roast cauliflower, green salad, baked sweet potatoes (leftover) and carrot sticks.

Dark choc with tea afterwards.

We had cheese and onion quiche, spicy rice and salad.

I made Chinese 😄. Chicken Fried Rice using the left over chicken from Sunday's Roast.

I bloody love Evaporated milk, have it on cereal, porridge and in proper coffee

We had Charlotte potatoes with butter, salad of kale, beetroot, carrot, sprouted pulses etc, and smoked mackerel fillets

@B0D I do too! It's the best. Everyone usually thinks I'm a disgrace but it's lovely. My grandad was the one who started me on it.

DD and I had roast chicken, roast spuds, yorkies, roast fennel, broccoli and lashings of gravy.
It was, we agreed, better than our Christmas dinner. The chicken was, by chance, cooked to perfection.
So good.

I love cereal for dinner, my go-to is coco pops. Its too sweet (for me) for breakfast but for dinner, lovelyyyyyy

Last night was a Moroccan traybake thing from my new cook book. Lamb, butternut squash and chickpeas all roasted with garlic flatbreads and raita.
Tonight is Macaroni cheese with bacon lardons and broccoli hidden in it (kids 😅)
Tomorrow is pork paprikash with mash
