What’s for dinner today?

I ate out so I had a bowl with spinach and lemon kale, kimchi marinated tofu, green beans, roasted sweet potato, cucumber, red onion, ginger and chilli noodles and crispy shallots with lime, soy and sesame dressing. It was lovely. Then I had a banana and honey muffin and a large skinny latte. The latte was free so it tasted even better.

I probably wont have anything else for the rest of the day so I’ll live vicariously through you all.

What are you having?

TIA

Lentil pasta with sun dried tomato pesto, basil leaves, Parmesan and rocket.

Cod fillet in a foil parcel with lemon and garlic, oven chips, baby spinach salad. Lazy dinner.

Carbonara with fresh pasta instead of dried like I would normally use as it needs to be used up

Snap but with dried pasta. We shall also have garlic bread because why not!

This evening we are having a sausage medley thing, with onions, peppers, mushrooms & tomatoes with brown rice. No recipe - just making it up. Chuck it all in and hope for the best! We have sausages left over from yesterday, so I'll cut them into rings, fry the onions and other veg, then add a tin of plum tomatoes. I think we have sun-dried tomatoes & mozzarella that needs finishing up as well, so they will go in too. Plus some red pesto, fresh basil and some dried herbs & black pepper. Come to think of it, I might prepare it all now actually.

WhatDoRacoonsSay · 14/05/2026 15:44

Mushroom stroganoff with wild rice and asparagus.

cocktails4two · 14/05/2026 15:58

Corned beef hash and beans, my kids favourite.

Youshouldletmeloveyou · 14/05/2026 15:58

This thread is making me hungry, even more so because I am on a diet. 😂
All your meals sound delicious. Cottage pie is my favourite. We’re having steak, 100g of chips and a side salad. Really looking forward to it.

purplecorkheart · 14/05/2026 16:00

I am working late and have an event this evening. I think by the time I finish work it will not be worth my while going home so think I might go to the nearby Chinese restaurant and eat in.

PinkNailPolish2026 · 14/05/2026 16:01

Pork chops with apple sauce, purple sprouting broccoli, carrots and baby potatoes.

FridayNighFeeling · 14/05/2026 16:02

M&S Chinese ready meals - crispy duck pancakes - can't wait and the other bits like egg fried rice and crispy chilli chicken etc

mindutopia · 14/05/2026 16:15

I have brisket leftover from yesterday, so we’ll be having cheesy french dip sandwiches (same as yesterday) and probably some salad.

Whattinger · 14/05/2026 16:16

Dh picked up a rotisserie chicken earlier so we'll have chicken salad later

Caspianberg · 14/05/2026 16:18

omelette and salad. So much growing in garden!

7238SM · 14/05/2026 16:37

Tonight- lamb chops, jersey royals, sweet potato mash, asparagus, peas and tenderstem broccoli.

AgnesMcDoo · 14/05/2026 16:43

IKEA meatballs with the sauce and green beans and chips.

thekindoflovewemake · 14/05/2026 16:44

Your lunch sounds lovely 🥰

DH is cooking some kind of sausage casserole which is more to his taste than mine, but I’m forgiving him since it’s got plenty of veg and beans in it.
