Thai green chicken pie

graziemille567 · 10/06/2019 16:40

Sausage casserole tonight -can't wait. It's getting cold where we are now so I'm enjoying the opportunity to have lots of cosy winter dinners!

Keema pie and broccoli.

Eliza9919 · 10/06/2019 16:57

@MinnieMountain What is keema pie?

SwimmerGirl40 · 10/06/2019 17:02

@Eliza99
It’s a spicy version of shepherds pie. Based on keema curry.

My local bakery do one and it is topped with onion Bhaji, rather than mashed potatoes. Delicious.

I’m making lamb kebabs with tabolouh

I'm between night shifts so it's a FOOTF night here.
Fell Out Of The Freezer.
Tonight's offering is chicken pies, roast pots peas and corn and a head of broccoli that was winking at me from the back of the fridge.

Turkey dinasours smilies and sweetcorn Blush

nokidshere · 10/06/2019 17:08

Sausages, mash, peas and gravy for us tonight - delish. Veggie will make his own later

SwimmerGirl40 · 10/06/2019 17:11

Glad I’m not the only one craving a bit of stodge in this wintery day 😁😁😁

fitflopqueen · 10/06/2019 17:11

sweet potato chips here which may be a bit spicy by the time they go in the oven with some veggie burgers - no buns, whatever salad is left in the fridge too.

Greenandcabbagelooking · 10/06/2019 17:15

Quorn chicken burger, chips and salad. Not very healthy or exciting. Yesterday I made tomato and leek pearl barley risotto.

SwimmerGirl40 · 10/06/2019 17:19

Is there a recipe sharing section on Mumsnet?

ScreamingValenta · 10/06/2019 17:23

Using up yesterday's leftovers - roast pork, cauli and broccoli with gravy in casserole dish, covered in mashed potatoes. Heating now.

IntoValhalla · 10/06/2019 17:30

ScreamingValenta oooo that’s just made me feel all nostalgic Grin Cold, rainy nights when I still lived at home with mum and dad, and whatever meat and veg we’d had for Sunday lunch would always go in a casserole on Monday night! Yum!!!

CharminglyGawky · 10/06/2019 17:48

Meatloaf, sweet potato fries and probably beans as DS will eat those. Will cook whatever random veg we have in the fridge as well.

Lolly86 · 10/06/2019 17:50

Egg chips and beans here before I go.to work...Grin

Youngandfree · 10/06/2019 17:51

Jambalaya 🙌

LaMarschallin · 10/06/2019 17:59

Made a bit more effort tonight as had offered to take food round to DD and her husband. She's feeling really unwell and he's home late.
So we're having what they're having:
Slice of black pudding topped with fried apple topped with onion chutney;
Jamie's pot roast meatloaf with potato and carrot mash;
Baked strawberry custards.

Only posting to show off as we normally only ever have a main course.
Although I do love cooking puddings.

TBH, they'd probably have preferred a takeaway pizza but are too polite to say so Smile

Chancewouldbeafinethlng · 10/06/2019 18:17

Ramen for us tonight.
I just used one of those meal kits from Tesco but added shredded miso chicken, pak choi, mange tout, water chestnuts, a couple of gyosas and an egg. It was delicious!

Xiaoxiong · 10/06/2019 18:34

@SwimmerGirl40 sorry to @ you but with such a long thread you might miss my response - if you look under all the Talk topics there is a Mumsnet Food/Recipes board, come on over!

Tonight it's a pasta bake of shells stuffed with spinach and ricotta topped with tomato sauce and cheese, baked till brown on top. Comfort food since it feels like the sun never came up today.

Sparklesocks · 10/06/2019 18:45

Bangers and mash with onion gravy tonight, it’s so wet and gross outside it’s the only solution!

FlatPackPat · 10/06/2019 19:31

Were having a Janie Oliver chicken and mushroom pie. One of his 15 min recipes but I always have to rewatch the video on YouTube. It's very easy tbf. Not amazing flavour but easy and satisfying for a rainy day.

SwimmerGirl40 · 10/06/2019 20:03

Thank you. I’ll head over and have a look.

I think we’re in a bit of a dinner rut and it would be good to shake things up!

Fish tagine here!
