So.... Is anyone interested in a thread where we all say what we are having for tea / dinner depending on where you live, and I can steal your lovely ideas. Hopefully we could share ideas?
We are having turkey burgers in buns with corn on the cob and salad tonight, homemade pizza tomorrow.

Back to healthy food tomorrow...

Gosh you all have very fancy meals for midweek! I'm giving the kids pasta pesto and I am having large stuffed mushrooms picked up cheap from Sainsburys.

A rare event of all of us eating together thanks to half term, but that means trying to find something we'll all enjoy, and that is vege for DH. So it's spaghetti with homemade tomato sauce, cannellini beans, parmesan and garlic bread, accompanied by a lovely Chianti.
I've set the dining room table up all posh though to celebrate the exceptionally rare event of a midweek meal at the dining table Blush I could just do with DH getting home, who said at 5:10 that he was coming straight home, a 10 minutes drive away, and predictably is nowhere to be seen Hmm

Roasted veg with baked feta and couscous here. It's beautiful and still warm so may era out in the garden. DC turned their noses up at planned dinner so they had freezer roulette: I think it ended up being chilli (our frozen leftovers all look very similar till reheated!)

Mm some lovely meals yesterday. Tonight we are having home made pizza in a bizarre shape as rolled out by DD, with mushrooms, ham and chicken on top. Corn on the cob. Salad and potato salad to go with it. It's smelling good. I'm very hungry!

Going to knock up some chicken noodle store fry type thingie in a bit.

Was contemplating a Chinese takeaway, but have got things that need using up in the fridge, so am being boring frugal.

Went out for a huge lunch (local Gujarati vegetarian place) so dinner will be cheese and crackers, or eggy bread, or toast or something. I have lots of blueberries, so could make blueberry pancakes, but doubt anybody will be hungry enough.

Seared tuna, jacket potatoes, and salad tonight.

Not decided on any form of dressing for tune and/or salad as yet - need to look at what I can have on SW I guess.
Dessert will probably be yogurt and fruit, again!

Made a mushroom risotto, DS decided it looked ucky so he had one grain of rice, some chicken pieces and salad. I ate the risotto and I'm still hungry damn period so I'll have some more salad when the boy is in bed and try to resist finishing the bag of chocolate buttons I opened last night
