It would mean having it 2 nights in a row, but use a half tin of clams with some pasta, olive oil that you saute garlic in, toss in handful cherry tomatoes (or regular tomatoes diced small) and your clams, perhaps a squeeze of lemon juice - delish and light. So worth the seeming expense of a tin of clams. (Someone else may well have another idea for the spare clams instead).
Or a tin of crab meat to mix with mashed potato, couple of sliced spring onions (or small regular onion) and half a small tin of sweetcorn, form into patties and do the flour, egg, breadcrumbs trick with. Fry and serve with salad (and sweet chilli sauce if you have any - but fine without - I've used garlic mayo at times too).
The other half of the sweetcorn, you could make a nasi goreng. Drain the oil from a tin of tuna in oil into a pan and fry onion, add garlic, then add mix of whatever other veg you have (mushrooms, courgette, peppers, frozen peas, mange tout, french beans, broad beans, etc all good) and the corn, add the tuna, add a couple of tablespoons of mild curry powder and stir through. Then add pre-cooked rice, stir through again and allow to cook until rice is properly hot. Absolute favourite here.
Homemade pizza where crust is not too thick and not overloaded with toppings. (There are lots of different bases available now - but if you are a bread maker that should be an option for you?).
Tuna melts?
We'er just doing a lot of salads, some BBQs (which are a lot less meat and a lot more veggies on skewers than normal), some lighter pasta dishes (some of which I'm doing BIG pots of, freezing spare and then making it into a pasta bake the following week with some added breadcrumbs and cheese on top) and trying to empty the freezer. I am going to do crab cakes next week one night (it's a regular favourite when we have spare mash).
