To think this must be the worst meal ever.

[ChooChooWowWow]

Dh normally gets home at about 7pm. Dc have already eaten, I'm on a diet so do my own meals and dh cooks for himself.

Last night he came in and made the following:

Mashed potato, tinned tuna, raw onion, brown sauce and baked beans. All mixed together.

It looked like a plate of dogs vomit.

Dh insists this a acceptable meal. So MN jury is it?

If he likes it then it's acceptable to him.

it sounds vile, but if he likes it, he likes it... and he made it... so whats the problem

I suppose it isnt far off being a tuna fish cake.. if you took the beans out..

I wouldn't be kissing him afterwards

It sounds vile but TBH it also sounds like the kind of meal my DH lived off of before he met me!

Bunty Hopefully you wouldn't be kissing him before either...considering he's the OP's DH

Sounds gross to me, but at least he isn't expecting you to eat it!

It probably is a fairly balanced, nutritious meal (carbs, protein, veg etc) when you think about it...

WorraLiberty

I don't mind what he eats just can't understand why anyone would want to eat that. I did say why didn't he make tuna fishcakes and serve with the beans. So much more acceptable.

Sounds utterly vile.
Will have to check with dh though as he once cooked salmon in red wine with ginger. Luckily I was away at the time.

My Dh makes sandwiches out of things like left over lasagne and curry. Your Dh is normal OP

I would eat this, but not with the brown sauce. My dad would have the brown sauce version.

That is the most pointless piece of information I have ever posted on MN.

Yuck. Raw onions, you say?

Shanghai- I'm feeling a little bit sick after reading about that salmon dish.

I wouldn't want to be sharing a lift with your DH for a good 24 hours after eating that

yum apart from ketchup instead of brown and no nasty baked beans.

My stepfather once ate cold sprouts on toast.

He recommended it. "Put hairs on your chest!" I think was the gist of the recommendation.

I think I just vomited a little bit

It sounds minging but I think its something you can't knock til you've tried it..

my dad cooked something similar when we were younger and mum was in hospital bar the raw onion and brown sauce. Gross. We still keep him going about it.

Sounds yummy actually.

Takes me back to the days when my dad had to cook if my mum was out for the night, He would start by frying some onions then add whatever was in the cupboards into it. Beans, corned beef, pasta, tomato soup, tuna, sweetcorn. It looked like vomit but taste sooooooo good.

DH does exactly that. He doesn't care what he eats as long as the food groups are covered . One of his most foul concoctions was a scrambled egg, mackerel, green bean and baked bean combo.

Makes me wonder why I stress about cooking nice meals, I ought to just sling it all in a trough...

It reminds me of a ready meal "tuna and sweetcorn cottage pie" that M&S used to do. That had dill sauce and I'd eat it most nights with beans. God it was nice.

I'd definitely brown the onions and use ketchup instead though.

VOMITS!

His choice

but...

DOUBLE VOMIT [anvy]

Pickle that is gross.
Dh says his best childhood meal was something his mum made. They called it Spaghetti Junction and it consisted of:

Tinned tomatoes
Spaghetti (not tinned, the normal stuff)
Baked beans
Onion
Cheese sauce
Cheese
All mixed together.

His mother has a lot to answer for

reminded me of one of my kids when younger wanted mash, tuna and beans and red sauce and OMG I GAVE IT TO HER !! what a bad bad mother!! oh well at least he cooks own ...

oh yes and she had cheese on it should i try it for tea for the little Darling 12 years on hee hee !!

We had fish and chips on Sunday (at ikea) then it was the first day of half term and dh had kids for the day. I came home and dinner was fish in batter, smiley faces , wedges and battered onion rings. I made a snide comment and boiled some frozen peas and carrots. He was most put out that I had the fish and a plate of salad!
