Have been having a bit of a low week so far and looking for some inspiration before I drag myself to the shops...

So, what are you having?

AnachronisticCorpse · 12/12/2017 14:58

It was meant to be chilli and roasted tomato soup but I doubt there’s going to be any left. I only meant to try it. Oops.

Taffeta · 12/12/2017 14:58

AnachronisticCorpse - recipe pretty please?

needtogiveitablow · 12/12/2017 14:59

Mince and dumplings, it’s been in the slow cooker all day and will add dumplings a bit before it’s ready - I can’t wait! Grin

LemonysSnicket · 12/12/2017 15:00

Duck in Plum Sauce, with cabbage ( either white or cavil nero) and roasted carrots and sprouts.

Chicken enchiladas

slippermaiden · 12/12/2017 15:02

Chicken balti made by me using a PataKs spice paste. Add an onion, a pepper, a tin of chopped tomatoes and some coconut milk, extra chilliest and it's done. A family favourite round here.

foxyloxy78 · 12/12/2017 15:04

Roast beef with roast potatoes and peas.

littlepeas · 12/12/2017 15:07

Salmon, roasted baby new potatoes and pepperonata.

Flamingoingmad · 12/12/2017 15:07

just been out for another work lunch, DC eat at after school club so DH will be having cheese toasties I think

ooh, we have some nice cheese at home. Ok, cheese and crackers.

AnachronisticCorpse · 12/12/2017 15:17

@taffeta

It was 8 whole tomatoes, halved
half an onion, six cloves of garlic and a red chilli all roughly chopped
Put in a roasting pan with the toms face down. Then I put in some basil and oregano and spritzed with oil coz I’m on a diet. 190 for 45 minutes, whizz with a pint of stock.

I had Parmesan on the first mugfull but haven’t bothered for the second (or third...)

I only made it because I accidentally ordered tomatoes and we had loads already but I’ll make it again.

Off to a concert so will grab something to eat before. I fancy Thai but not sure if there is one nearby.

mmgirish · 12/12/2017 15:30

I had dinner earlier (not in the UK) I had a chicken massaman curry with rice and roti. It was yumlicious!

JaceLancs · 12/12/2017 16:50

Gammon, sausage, egg, beans and mushrooms
Tomorrow butternut squash lasagne made with sliced meatballs instead of mince

CuppaSarah · 12/12/2017 16:52

Beef mince and hotdog burritos! They're a favourite in our house. I can shove anything in and use up odds and ends easily.

noeffingidea · 12/12/2017 16:54

Lentil and vegetable stew. It's bubbling away on the hob now.

TheFairyCaravan · 12/12/2017 16:59

Beef stew and dumplings.

Seren85 · 12/12/2017 17:01

Cheese and tomato pasta bake with garlic bread. DH is on a late shift and we have no DC so it is an easy meal for one.

anotherprosecco · 12/12/2017 17:11

Salmon fish cakes, new potatoes (boiled, then olive oil on them with plenty of black pepper, then roasted off in the oven) and peas.

pilates · 12/12/2017 17:14

Sausage, mash and broccoli

blueskyinmarch · 12/12/2017 17:17

Bean on toast with melted grated cheese on top. Just finished it and it was awesome. DH is away and i am going out shortly so i needed a quick easy tea.

Canklesofglitter · 12/12/2017 17:17

Anna Jones' vegan chilli with rice.

I'm not vegan or even vegetarian but the recipe is fab and the DCs love it. Plus it makes approximately a ton of chilli so there's enough for at least another meal.
