You can have anything you like from the supermarket

For dinner. With as little prep as possible. What do you pick?

If I must have an aibu, it's aibu to ask you to inspire me, I don't fancy anything in particular.

A bit of rib-eye steak, a tomato and a large potato. And if I don't have them already, some butter and salt.

Fried steak, fried tomato and a baked potato is something I very rarely afford, but if I am getting whatever I want and not having to pay for it, that's what I want!

Cold chicken, salad, potato salad or couscous

Charlie Bingham meal. Bung it in the oven serve with salad or bread.
The macaroni cheese is nice as is the tikka masala.

Waitrose curry meal deal with pakoras & naan. Weissbier to drink, seasonal English plums for pudding.

May as well bookmark this thread as of today I have no kitchen for 8 weeks.
I’ve got a microwave risotto and toast 🤷🏻‍♀️

Askingquestions if we are going all out and prepped and cooked by someone else, I'd have leg of lamb, roast potatoes, peas, sweetcorn & yorkies. And proper gravy.

I'd have a pizza express pizza and a bottle of wine. Or maybe a bag of doritos and dip. Or one of those mezze platters with a nice piece of bread and some dipping oil. Or even a tub of M and S egg mayo, a crusty cob or ciabatta and a bag of kettle crisps.

Tuna pâté and a fresh, crusty baguette.
Dry white wine, ice cold.

I had a tuna mayo and sweetcorn toast sandwich for dinner yesterday.

It wasn't a toasted tuna sandwich because it was just tuna filling in toast, not toasted in a sandwich toaster or frying pan.

Tiger bread and cream cheese.

I was going to say something practical like a nice throw.
But since you want food, my DF also loves Charlie Bingham - the fish pie or Macoroni Cheese

Pizza and M&S fresh chips.

Or cold meats selection, pot of olives, crisps, dips, anchovies, breadsticks.

Macaroni cheese a d salad 🤤

Hot cross buns and butter

We call them wallies too - yum

I've never tried those Charlie Bingham meals. £6+ for a ready meal seems a bit pricy. I can probably cook it myself for less than £12. I know the point is not cooking it yourself though.

But I do buy m&s ready meals and meal deals

Salmon en croute. Love the fish and pastry!

Charlie Bighams are worth the money IMO. The 2 portion ones are just right. No leftovers and no pots to wash.

M & S crispy beef and egg fried rice, and some ice cream. I may have some in late January after a wedding I'm going to that I don't want to look lumpy for.

Charlie Bingham fish pie and Birds Eye frozen peas. Easy peasy.

Or supermarket own brand fish pie. The M&S ones are very nice, much nicer than the CB ones.

I buy the CB meals occasionally when they're on offer. We very rarely have takeaways and they actually taste homemade. See also: Cook meals.

I've just served this, literally NO cooking & all from tesco lol had no time to cook & it was a hit

Hummus crisps tomatoes cucumber

M&S gastropub mousaka or their butter chicken with rice
