[liveinazoo]

been a while since ive seen one of these around so what are you having tonight?

in the zoo house its a bean and pesto stew with rice

Roast chicken with mash, green beans and lots of roasted garlic.

What do you put in your bean and pesto stew?

There's definitely nothing like pesto

Anyhoo, chez Pesto this eveningi Matthew I give you.....

Jacket Potatoes with cheese and beans CantBeArsedToDoMuch

Over here in Greece it's lentil soup with feta.

winnybella its a recipe i havent tried before-onions,garlic,courgettes,carrots and celery sauteed in oil.add stock and cannelini beans and tomato puree.simmer gently.last 5mins add sliced green beans,peas and couple fresh chopped tomatoes.stir in pesto and serve with warmd cheese scones

but i cant be arsed to make scones so using rice

We're doing lentil and carrot soup, but I love the idea of lentil soup with feta, ItsallGreek! Do you just make a normal lentil soup (lentils, carrot, stock, onion, celery, maybe a potato), or do you spice it some other way?

We just had lamb steaks with brocolli cheese. First time I have gotten my kids to eat brocolli so I am very pleased!

Chicken and leeks in a white cheddar sauce and mustard mash. Both new to the Wips household. Just need tonstop watching Toy Story 3 with DS1...

Chicken stuffed with chorizo and cheese and baked wedges, no veggies left as it's big shop day tomor but we'll survive!

Do you mix anything in with the chorizo? Sounds yum.

Beef stew and dumplings! Stew has been in the slow cooker all day.... tummy is gurgling away and I am clock watching til tea time!

Sausage and mash here for DH and DS. I might have same or may have the rest of the vegetable curry that I made on Tuesday with a jacket potato.

No just chop it up a bit. The best part is the chicken though, it's from gino on this morning a while back, you flatten breast with rolling pin or kitchen hammer stuff it with whatever then roll up and pin together with cocktail sticks and wrap it in baking paper like a Christmas cracker and bake for about 30 mins. Its soooo tender!

I'm poorly (was vomitty, now just drowsy) so DH is taking care of dinner.

He is bringing home... McDonald's. Guess whose eight year old is a happy boy?

Oh this is going to sound so dull compared to your offerings - cottage pie and green beans. But will be yummy as DDs made it with lots of cheese on top.

DDs just had slow cooked chicken, chips, cauliflour and brocli. I feel sick might have something later.

Finally making Ottolenghi's pizza - spinach, pecorino and egg, with za'atar and sumac. Can't wait

Chicken risotto!! A fave for all family

Veggie curry with various trimmings.

we had lentil bake & salad - first time i have made it & it was lovely!

We were all going to have split pea and frankfurter soup.

15 minutes after we usually have dinner and the peas were still rock hard, even though the recipe and the packet both suggested they only needed an hour. I had to bail on the soup and quickly cook cheese omelettes and peas for the DC.

That was ages ago, they are both now tucked up in bed and the stupid soup is STILL not ready

I have no idea. I have just opened the freezer and look at the offerings, was uninspired and closed it again.

Chicken curry from a jar and naan bread.

Mousakka, home made from freezer for me and DH. fisfingers and something for DDs.
