Nothing. Its too hot to either cook or eat. I cant be bothered.
I told the kids to forrage in the fridge and sort themselves out.
They made sandwiches.
Ill throw something down my throat later.
My husband had SOUP! In this weather! Mad fool.

I had a very spicy soup at lunchtime.

Off to neighbour's BBQ in a min, must say I'm glad not to have to cook in this weather Smile

SilverSixpence · 13/07/2013 17:20

We're having guests so more food than usual but I'm making chicken wings, potato salad, chickpea curry, lamb biryani and salad. The biryani will be served with a mint yoghurt sauce so it's a bit more cooling.

SpottyTeacakes · 13/07/2013 17:22

Fish and chips.

Weather will never dampen my love for fish and chips.

BIWI · 13/07/2013 17:34

We're barbecuing:

ribeye steak, marinated in olive oil and lemon juice
neck fillet of lamb and aubergine kebabs, marinated in yoghurt, garlic, cumin and mint, with chilli/paprika mayonnaise
halloumi, with lemon, garlic and coriander dressing
coleslaw
Puy lentil salad

And if the barbecue is still going after all that, then I have some sausages to cook as well!

MonsterBookOfTyRexs · 13/07/2013 17:42

Morrisons Extra Tasty cooked chicken, plus salad and tiger bread. DD1 has been dancing all afternoon, and me there with her - so a very quick tea for all of us when we got in.

WilsonFrickett · 13/07/2013 20:17

We BBQ-d again but cheated and got it all from marks. Venison burgers, chicken strips (a bit meh) and some chicken kebabs which were very good. Couple of rolls and some salad and salsa. Could not be faffed even sticking something in a marinade this morning. Although its cooled down quite a bit now.

Taffeta · 13/07/2013 20:28

Chicken souvlaki with coriander yoghurt dressing red onion and homegrown tomatoes in soft pittas
Homegrown raspberries and cream for pud
And Prosecco.

This weather calls for cold roast chicken, salad, coleslaw and M&S wholemeal soda bread.
