...to ask what you're making for dinner this evening?

[Clubbercised]

I'm looking for inspiration ! Plus, I just really like these threads .

@LifeInAHamsterWheel Fair enough, sorry I missed that amongst the culinary masterpieces being knocked up on a Tuesday night. You and I will go and sit in the corner with our heads hung in shame. Fancy sharing my sausages with me?

@nokidshere you may make everything at home. But is it "from scratch" (the other key phrase to drop in on threads like these)? That's the killer caveat. Unless you ground the very flour yourself you are not worthy

A 4 ingredient salad that my husband loves:
Cherry tomatoes (cut in halves) with chopped avocado ( mix in a bowl and add sealsalt) then stirfry shrimps (we use small ones from the fridge) and mix them when they come straight from the pan with the tomatoes and avocado.

Enchiladas. In fact I've just made them and ready to chuck in oven after Imlaws have left.

@Clubbercised I know! DP frustrates me at times

I dont have a sling. DD is 11 months and I'm heavily pregnant but I'll look into online shopping, I've never done it before.

If I'm too late for a delivery I think I'll spend my evening hovering around your thread thinking about what could've been

Pork belly, vindaloo sauce (home made of course) and maybe my brother's special "Indian" flat bread. "Indian" as in he invented it, he's Caucasian and his lives in Suffolk, but we have it with Indian food. Might also do my black daal.

We're still on holiday this week then back to normal on Monday

There was supposed to be a winky next to home made of course...

Soy ginger and garlic chicken stir fry with rainbow veg. Prawn gyozas with soy and lime dip.

We are having some kind of chorizo, spinach and tomato rice concoction, with leftover baguette. DS1 will have marmite crackers.

I work part-time; today is a non-working day. I do a lot of quick stuff all week, I really like simply cook mixes at the moment.

Chicken Parmesan

Also a massive fan of frozen mashed potato!

Ahhh, what can I say. I think my halo might slip sometimes I bought the flour and milk

Mediterranean couscous (loads of veg and garlic) and grilled halloumi. Can’t wait.

Love how everyone is making a deliberate point of saying "HOME MADE xyz". I mean, imagine if some random on the internet thought you BOUGHT your meatballs or soup or whatever. The shame!

No shame here. My homemade stew could also be referred to as "using leftover vegetables, before they go off". It's certainly nothing fancy but, it is tasty and healthy and might give someone some ideas.

A load of stuff lobbed in a pan together - broccoli and chickpea stew with lots of onions, garlic, tomatoes, spinach and some peas and spices/chilli. Served with rice.

We were lazy last night and ordered a dominos ...tonight’s meal should have been last nights.
Minted lamb steaks with traybake veg and potatoes. I’m hungry now after reading this thread.

SandAndSea no shame here! Every homemade soup I’ve ever made has been utter wank - nowt wrong with a tin of Heinz
And I’ve only tried to make meatballs once....couldn’t handle sticking my hands in the bowl to mulch it all up and shape into balls I buy them. Ready made and perfectly shaped, no mulching required!

We're having spaghetti bolognese here. Unless @Chelsea26 gives me either an address or a full recipe because that sounds delish.

Chorizo and prawn paella. HOME MADE!

Shop bought tortilla with salad. 5 minute job as DS has diving at 6pm and we're just in. Why do all kids activities involve fighting through rush hour traffic, the pool is 5 minutes away on a Sunday afternoon, 25 mins at teatime on a Tuesday . Will book mark the thread for inspiration though as I've no imagination when it comes to dinners.

I'm making a Shepherds Pie for the first time. I'm making an effort to cook a few more traditional things for when DS is older ... Used to eat them as a child but as an adult I tend to make more international things.

Wethers crap here so fancied comfort food.
Sausage and mash with veg, Yorkshire's and Gravy 🤤

I've made a beef chilli, with rice! Loving anything I can chuck in a slow cooker at the minute!

BBQ chicken drumsticks, corn on the cob and coleslaw. Really want a takeaway but need to be good.

Beef and ale stew in the slow cooker. It smells divine! Should be ready at about 6 having put it on at about 10.

Meatloaf, roast potatoes and ratatouille veg (this is more effort than I usually manage on a weekday!)

DP and I will eat it all; DD2 will eat roast potatoes and a bit of bacon off the edge of the meatloaf
