We have a big lunch but a small supper/tea/dinner. Here's what we're having this week:
Tomato soup and french bread. You can make it yourself by blending up a two big or three small ripe tomatoes, a large clove of garlic, half a red onion, a teaspoon of paprika, a tablespoon of worcestershire sauce, sugar and salt to taste. I use a tablespoon of brown sugar and a teaspoon of salt. Or canned version if you don't have time.
Give some large potatoes a zap in the microwave and then cook them on a lowish heat for an hour. You can do other things while you wait for them to crisp. We have them with beans (you can make baked beans by using the tomato soup recipe as a sauce and simmering pre-cooked beans) or any other topping you prefer. Sweetcorn, mayonaise and tuna is popular in this house, or cheese and butter. Anything you like. Even left overs from dinner.
A hard boiled egg and soldiers.
An omelete with various fillings. We have mushrooms, ham and cheese.
French bread pizza. Just toast some French bread with pizza toppings
Make a simple cheese sauce (butter, flour, milk and cheese) and mix it with macaroni and chopped baby tomatoes.
Hotdog soup: It is very simple. Chop hotdogs with leeks and cook with gnocchi and chicken stock. We have it with bread.
