to ask what's for dinner?

[Heartbeats0708]

Feeling completely fed up and out of inspiration. DC fed so it's just me to cook for.
It's hot and muggy here so I don't want to put the oven on. I have been food shopping but £40 doesn't get as much fresh stuff as it used to does it? Well stocked cupboards though thankfully.
What are you having?

Hot smoked salmon fillets, stirred into cream cheese lemon juice and pasta, mixed up with brocolli and rocket

Garlic pan fried prawns with hollandaise sauce, Home made lasagne with garlic bread, a tomato salad and a green salad, bottle of Pinot noir and some homemade lemon sorbet to follow.

Last night of the week for us before I do my weekly food shop tomorrow so leftovers..roasted peppers, onions mushrooms, tomatoes , hash browns bacon and beans went down well but lots of washing up!

Chicken and bean tacos with rice, cheese and salad

Beef stroganoff (cheap version with beef pieces not fillet steak!!)

Cajun chicken, jacket potato and a mixed salad. Couldn't be arsed with anything more taxing!
Tomorrow I'm doing a chilli.

Quiche (from local bakery), potato salad and salad

This chorizo and orzo summer stew, shamelessly copied from another thread this morning!

www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/chorizo-orzo-sweetcorn-summer-stew

Not eaten yet, but it looks lovely and was cheap and easy to do.

Mushroom risotto (aging mushrooms need using up) then strawberries and cream.

Husband is having pie and chips; I’m having egg and chips

Soup and toast and the last 6 squares of a Cadbury's chocolate bar

This is really helping! The salmon and prawns sound incredible, but I don't have any fish stuff in.
Mexican-y food sounds tasty, I need to raid the cupboards. I definitely have sour cream, absolutely essential.

@Shoxfordian I love pie but I couldn't eat it when it's so warm!

@Heartbeats0708

I know; I don’t even like pie still he’s happy 😄

Chicken mince tacos with salad. I was going to put guacamole on top but bought the stuff with milk & im lactose intolerance - gutted 🤣

HM meatballs & bottom-of-fridge-veg in a tomato sauce with pasta.

I've printed that chorizo recipe - Friday's dinner sorted. Thanks for the link.

Chicken shawarma, flatbread, rice and salad

Falafel, Halloumi, Hummus and salad with Pitta breads

Oven baked potatoes, salad, coleslaw abd carribean turkey. Basically just turkey steaks pan fried in Dunn’s river spice mix.

Now very full.

Gnocchi baked with vegetables and creme fraiche and roasted tomatoes and salad!

I was going for pizza which I have in the fridge but I’m feeling lazy and warm so I may just have a bowl
of cereal with nice cold milk and some ice cream!

Just me to cook for tonight, so I had cacio e pepe (essentially, just pasta, cheese and pepper!) ☺️

This is exactly the kind of thing I fancy! Enjoy 😋 if it's a recipe please do post!

Ceaser salad for me! Chicken stir fry for kids

Chicken risotto tonight. Arborio rice, chicken stock simmered with some dried porcini mushrooms in it, then with the cooked chicken, peas and Parmesan added at the end.

Served with a glass of champagne.

Asparagus tips to start with vinaigrette.
