To ask you all what I should have for dinner? What are you having?

[CottonEyedJoe]

I've been skint for ages and had a range of boring, shit choices for dinner (if any) but things are looking up money wise (god bless student loans and new jobs).

Big Ocado shop came today (£30 off voucher so feeling very posh - I'm an Aldi gal) and now I'm spoilt for choice!

I have

Pizza express American hot/ sloppy Giuseppe pizza

Potatoes

Oven chips

Steak burgers (and buns, onions, burger cheese etc)

Mince

Part baked baguettes

Rump steak

Is it called antipasti? Salami, chorizo etc in a pack

Cheddar cheese

Goats cheese

Parmesan

Fresh pasta

Carrots

Sweetcorn

Cous cous, rice, noodles, bacon, yogurt, cream, delicious president butter, stock, garlic, herbs and spices, Nando's sauce, cream, eggs etc etc

Etc.

What should I have for dinner?!

I'm swaying towards baguette, antipasti, cheese, grapes, crisps etc but had this for lunch (was delish though)

Or shall I cook myself a lovely fat burger and chips?

Or pizza?

Or go the whole hog and cook steak/ spag Bol? Spag Bol takes too long if you're cooking a good one doesn't it, and I'm starving 🐷 carbonara?

What's the verdict? I want something really easy and quick to cook. But unbelievably yummy. Not fussed about calories today or any day if truth be told. Too chuffed at having a full fridge for the first time in forever

Started on some new antidepressants since leaving abusive exP and can really feel them working and am trying to feel gratitude in little moments so after DD goes to bed I'm going to scoff and drink wine and watch TV/ read my new library book and feel bloody grateful for it all have lovely chocolate and sweeties for after of course!

Feel free to tell me what you're having/ had for dinner for future inspo!

I'm making posh macaroni cheese tonight. (I cooking up some lardons and drizzle on truffle oil to fancy it up.) Will serve it with a big green salad.

I'd have a burger, if I were you, and had all the trimmings to hand.

cook up, not cooking up! Agh, we need an edit button!

It all sounds so good!

Tonight I am going all out and having a fish finger sandwich. The only thing I can muster the energy for before my night shift, so tired. Might upgrade to an M&S ready meal for later on at work to cheer myself up.

That egg and chips recipe sounds heavenly and I'm stealing it.

We're having chicken legs and veg roasted with ras el hanout and served with cous cous. A sort of cheaty chicken tagine.

I'm probably going to have some toast when I get in from work after midnight, had a big lunch but that won't stop me raiding the kitchens at work when chef's not looking

Your dinner looked and sounded amazing! And so lovely that things are good for you OP and you've had this lovely day - enjoy your evening and your sweeties!

DD is having pizza. I'm having halloumi and mushrooms on pittas.
