A 'tea tonight?' thread anyone?

475 replies

TweeBee · 31/05/2016 17:24

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.

I'm having king prawns with butternut squash and carrot 'spaghetti' and a spicy tomato sauce, can't wait I'm hungry!

PurpleDaisies · 07/06/2016 13:44

Similar to you ohholyfuck we're having pasta with spicy tomato sauce, prawns and roasted veggies (probably pepper and courgette-depends on what's in the fridge).

Aiming to have salady dinners the rest of the week - tonight its grilled halumi (can never spell it) with green salad leaves, roast broccoli and grated beetroot

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 07/06/2016 17:48

Haloumi here too - going to skewer it with a load of vege, and serve with spiced rice, tsatziki and salad.

Crustless quiche with chickpea salad & wedges. All made from scratch (as I'm gluten & dairy free) very tasty even if I say so myself!!Grin

DH is away so I get to cook my favourite things for the next few days - huzzah!

I've made a carrot and courgette salad from Deliciously Ella, and am baking a swordfish steak to go with. I've also made some oat/ banana breakfast bars to use the oven.

IHaveBrilloHair · 07/06/2016 18:36

Comfort food here tonight, had a shitty day, so scrambled egg on toast, lots of butter in the egg, dash of anchovy sauce, then anchovies on the top.
Guess one of my favourite foodsGrin

Kids thought it was takeaway!

Coco pops Blush

Actually not even coco pops. Aldi knockoff version. 'Chocolate rice with monkey' or whatever they call it.

insan1tyscartching · 07/06/2016 19:10

Mushroom omelette here today as nobody very hungry.

acsec · 07/06/2016 19:12

I forgot to get the chicken out of the freezer for DSS and I so we had a Slimming World burger with cheese (no bun sadly) each, new potatoes (DSS chose them over homemade chips) I had broccoli he had baked beans. Was nice!

SH had maple pork belly slices and halloumi as he's low carbing.

TweeBee · 07/06/2016 19:23

We had chicken skewers (chicken marinaded in maple syrup and ketchup) with paprika wedges and, somewhat bizarrely, roasted veg.
Not sure about tomorrow as DC have a party after school and I'm going to the gym when they are in bed so I might eat at the party too - it's in soft play, obviously I'll order my own meal and not pinch theirs!

Pasta bake. Been confined to base today with injured child and no shopping in.

French bread pizzas, a french bread roll, cut in half and grilled with a pizza sauce, mozerella, olives, red onion, tomato and green peppers.

FourForYouGlenCoco · 07/06/2016 21:16

dizzy that sounds amazing!
Howabout stuffed red peppers - chopped fried onion, cut up sundried tomatoes, chunks of feta, all mixed up together and piled in. Made it up as I went along tbh, it was yummy!
I love this thread - sooo many good ideas. It makes me hungry reading through though!

Slow cooked brisket with a sweet tomato sauce served in a roll with corn on the cob and coldslaw

CaptainWarbeck · 08/06/2016 11:25

This recipe for a veggie shepherds pie. Have already made it ready for bunging in the oven tonight. It's very lentilly but has actually turned out really tasty! Quite pleased with it, it's going to go in my recipe book.

Paulat2112 · 08/06/2016 11:29

slow cooker cheese steaks tonight with corn on cob and onion rings

ACubed · 08/06/2016 11:57

Beetroot and goats cheese salad with smoked salmon and some roast carrots. Determined to fit into my old jeans before my mat leave is up in September!

IHaveBrilloHair · 08/06/2016 12:53

Arbroath smokies here, got them from the fishmongers earlier.
Will have with new pots and asparagus and tons of butter

Strawclutching · 08/06/2016 12:54

Hake with garlic butter and salad

lastqueenofscotland · 08/06/2016 13:09

Today I'm having Cous Cous salad with baked sweet potato

Nogravyforyou · 08/06/2016 13:47

Some of the recipes on here have made my mouth water!

I'm having a jacket spud with beans, bacon, fried onions and cheese. DP will be having jacket spud with chilli on it ( yesterday's leftover spag Bol reinvented) as I had some at lunch time with a salad. Not very exciting here!

PurpleDaisies · 08/06/2016 13:50

Vegetable and quorn curry (jar of sauce). Naan, yoghurt and rice.
