to not serve dinner tonight?

[silverangel]

I am so so so bored of thinking what to cook, I just have no idea what to do tonight. Nothing special, just me and DH. His useless suggestion was lasagne - I'm low carbing at the moment so that clearly won't work.

I give up, tonight there shall be nothing for dinner!

Last night I cooked tagliata - loosely based on this recipe with rocket and parmesan salad. No carbs, and you can just do some crusty bread or garlic bread for your husband.

I like the BBC Good Food website...they have a recipe of the day. On weekends my DH and I try to make something from it as we were getting bored with the usual variations on bolognese etc x

Gino only-a-bit-campo did pollo alla pizzaiola yesterday, my mamma-in-law's quickie standby. Just breaded chicken on garlicky tom sauce with some moz on the top. Serve with crusty bread. Even quicker if you do it with steak. Green salad with oil/lemon dressing as side??????

Lol I feel your pain. Sometimes I am just completely lacking in inspiration combined with can't be bothered.

I am liking the look of that tagliata though, especially combined with the suggested roasted onions.

Low carb.
We had sausages and salad here tonight.
Last night was chicken thighs, browned off then cooked in stock in the oven with feta and olives.

Or how about a cheese board and a glass of read. Send your other half out for cheese and pate and a nice bottle of red.

I have been feeling like this recently. Pasta seems to be the default option. Just sick of trying to think of what to cook

There are 2 adults...why can't he cook?

Roast Chicken is always my saviour when I have months or weeks days like this. Goes with salady bits or roast veg, with bread or potatoes for the carbivores. As a bonus, baked potatoes will cook in the oven at the same time so even less work

*red a glass of red. Yes I'm on my second but it's night time here :)

We are having lasagne here, so not much help as a suggestion.

I also get weary of deciding what to cook, shopping for the food and cooking it. I am so sick of going to the supermarket.

We are having haggis tonight with mashed potato and turnip. I have bought ready prepared mash and turnip so everything can be microwaved. Easy tea.

Since I joined Slimming World I have not that that trouble OP. I go through the recipes, work out what's what for a week, then go shopping.

It's really lovely not having to think what to cook any more !

I am painting the kitchen today so we will be getting a supermarket curry to shove in the microwave.

Boiled egg and a cheese board?

Lasagne layered with aubergine yuck instead of pasta? I hate aubergine but you might like it

Get dh to cook tonight.

Why can't he cook???

If your DH is anything like mine you'll be begging him not to cook

Perhaps it's the OP's turn to cook?

If you like red meat then STEAK! Do it with sautéed mushrooms + cheesy cauliflower mash. It is low carb + very tasty. Carbs can be easily added for others too and you won't feel like you are missing out.

Or... Make your own kebabs, marinate & skewer chicken / lamb/ halloumi / veg+ grill them and serve with salad, garlicky yoghurt & chilli sauce. Others can have pitta or couscous if they want the carbs :)

The Hairy bikers do a diet lasagna in the hairy dieters book with strips is leek instead of pasta so low carb. Is actually really nice.
We are having moussaka that I made earlier from the new hairy bikers eat for life book which have had less than a week and already make 3 things from.

How about moussaka?

It's similar to lasagne but is made with aubergine instead of pasta (I know a few other posters have suggester similar.

Or shepherds/ cottage pie, but using a lower carb alternative to potato
e.g. mashed cauliflower or celeriac
