Tonight we had baked Camembert, crusty bread, chorizo in red wine & honey and chicken satay skewers. Just wanted something quick & easy to do. It's been a long couple of days.
Lol this doesn't sound quick and easy

Chicken Kievs, jacket spuds & petitpois

Tonight I'm having a chicken broth with oyster and shiitake mushrooms, kale and lentils. I've had my booster and semi paranoid im gonna get a reaction so trying to eat wholesome stuff for one day only 🤣

I know it sounds rank but it's really very tasty

Hello Fresh roasted cauliflower curry. I find I spend less with one of these meal plans as I don't buy things just in case, and it means we eat fairly healthy food

Cuwins · 06/12/2021 18:26

We had burgers and salad

justaweeone · 06/12/2021 18:27

Tonight is salmon teriyaki (salmon fillets smothered in teriyaki sauce and baked in the oven) with baked baby potatoes (with a little bit of sesame oil), broccoli and asparagus. One of the meals I can cook every week and they never seem to stop liking it.

This week :

Tuesday - spag Bol
Wednesday - sweet potato curry with sausages for the carnivores
Thursday - Thai green curry
Friday - the Time Honoured Friday Take Away!

Roast squash, roast broccoli, halloumi, spinach salad, pouch of french lentils and a dollop of hummus. (Always make A healthy dinner on a Monday to start the week off well)

Shopping delivery comes tomorrow, so slim pickings from the fridge today... pork mince, tomatoes and a squishy pepper so made a meatball pasta bake, which was surprisingly tasty in the end.

Palosverdesblue · 06/12/2021 22:30

Salmon, mashed potatoes and leeks and peas cooked in a bit of butter with a sauce made with creme fraiche and mustard.

We have some chicken left over from a roast on Sunday so hoping to make chicken fried rice. But we only have a small amount of "normal" Ie dried rice. Anyone know if it will work with those microwave pouches of rice but if I fry them rather than microwave them?

Mediterranean fish bake & cous cous

Basically ratatouille with a bit of smoked paprika pored over Basa fillets, topped with feta & pine nuts & baked in the oven

Not sure what we'll have on top but keeping it nice and simple

Onion, peppers, carrots and green beans roasted with chicken thighs on top, then after about 40 mins I poured over a jar of Lloyd grossman tomato sauce, topped it with cheese and put it back in oven to heat through.

I had a fillet steak with a little round of frozen Dauphinoise (from Aldi) and some shredded cabbage cooked with garlic, pepper and thyme - lovely!

BeyondMyWits · 09/12/2021 20:45

Felt like some hearty warming food today, so beef casserole with dumplings, buttery mashed potatoes and cabbage. Sooooooo tasty.

ZittiEBuoni · 09/12/2021 20:46
