What meals have you had so far this week?

[CheeseyPeasy]

I love getting ideas from other peoples meals, I generally cook from scratch and try and avoid UPF but try to take a common sense approach.
I'm feeling board and looking for inspiration.

Monday
Frozen pizza with added toppings, salad.

Tuesday
Burgers, coleslaw and potato wedges
(All homemade except the buns)

Wednesday
Sweet and sour pork with rice
(cooked from scratch)

Tonight we are having chicken fried rice. I'm roasting a chicken and will use some of that, along with the leftover rice from last night and some veg from the fridge and freezer.

Tomorrow I will make a chicken curry with the rest of the chicken.

Monday - cold gammon (from Sunday’s Roast), poached eggs and chips
Tuesday - Sausage meatballs in a roasted veg pasta sauce with Rigatoni
Wednesday - Goan prawn curry and spinach/mushroom rice
Tonight - just had slow cooker 5 spice belly pork with noodles/veg

Sausages in onion gravy with cauli cheese
gammon steak with Birds Eye frozen golden rice and pineapple.
HM tomato and red pepper soup with a cheese sandwich
macaroni cheese and garlic bread

@ilovepixie what are Christmas fries.

Monday steak pie, roasties and veg
Tuesday pizza (crosta & mollica, not homemade this time)
Wednesday chicken katsu, rice, shredded cucumber and carrots
Tonight meatballs and spaghetti (Hairy Bikers recipe).
Except the pizza (oh and the pastry for the pie - puff pastry is too much of a faff) all cooked from scratch by dh.

Monday - spinach and ricotta tortelloni pasta bake with broccoli and courgette

Tuesday - chilli con carne topped with avocado, sour cream and grated cheese

Wednesday - I had a bit of chilli left over but not enough for the main component of a meal so I made some flatbreads then topped them with chilli and cheese and oven baked them like a pizza then served with salad. They were nice!

Tonight - spaghetti carbonara with green beans

We restart tomorrow but going to keep my eye on this thread as I love trying new recipes.

Monday: Fishcakes, new potatoes, tenderstem broccoli
Tuesday: Gammon, jacket potatoes, cheese & coleslaw
Wednesday: Chicken wraps with salad
Thursday: Chicken/Sweet potato traybake with green beans

Looking for ideas for tomorrow…..

Just me and DP. We had:

Sunday - chilli with rice, tortilla chips and dips
Monday - jacket potatoes with chilli and cheese, salad, coleslaw
Tuesday - chorizo and red pepper gnocchi
Wednesday - “marry me” butter beans with crusty bread
Tonight - chicken and leek pie, mash, tenderstem
Tomorrow will be chicken fajitas

The pie we ate tonight was from M&S, likewise the coleslaw. I’m on holiday this week so have had time to do more cooking than usual, but normally we have a couple of nights where we have an oven meal, and we generally split cooking fairly equally. I made red pepper and butternut soup whhch we’ve had for lunches (DP mainly WFH) but I’m very keen on a tin of Heinz!

Monday- chicken and asparagus pie
Tuesday - roast chicken, potatoes, veg, yorkies and cheesy courgette & leek mix
Wednesday - mussels with fries, prawn & chorizo tapas dish, roasted asparagus
Today - fish & chips

Monday - chicken fajitas
Tuesday - chick pea curry with rice and flatbread
Wednesday - leftover flatbread made into toasties in the air fryer with cheese and tomato filling. Coleslaw.
Thursday - salmon in watercress sauce, broccoli and new potatoes.

ETA: kids had same on Monday and Tues. Wed they had egg fried rice with bacon, onion and peas chopped in it (leftover rice from curry) because I was going to the gym so DH and I ate after. Tonight they had tortellini pasta with arrabiata sauce as DH is out, so I had a posh ready meal from M and S as a treat.

We’ve had 2 casseroles with mash and veg (winter incoming). Fishcakes and potato gratin. Creamy bacon orzo. All very hearty, stick to your ribs kinda food.
