What's for tea?

[PritiPatelsMaker]

It's the day before payday, I'm ill, one of the DC is illand DH is working.

So I'm really not bothering tonight, it will be sausage, oven chips and beans.

What's everyone else having?

We have a meal like this each week, last night it was jacket potatoes with cheese and beans, tonight we are having shepherds pie with meat from the freezer. I am happy with egg and chips, but the other 3 adult men here want a more substantial meal with meat.

Both of those sound lovely as does egg & chips!

It was meant to be beef stroganoff but I’m also ill and really cba!

Sorry that you're I'll too @BrutusMcDogface. I've had a serious case of CBA this week too.

Crap isn't it?

Jacket potatoes with barbecue beans and cheese.
Easy comfort food.

Yes, it’s truly crap being solely responsible for the nutrition of four kids when feeling like shite (and actually sometimes when not feeling like shite!)

Hope you feel better soon 💐

Lamb pasta, its a Nigella one. Chuck it in the slow cooker. Looks nice, not quite ready but if it is indeed nice it will be on the weekly menu. I'm having loads of CBA days lately too. Wish I could afford those cook meals that you just bung in the oven.

Spag Bol, slightly experimentally with stewing beef rather than mince because I forgot to go shopping and that's what we had in the freezer.

The joy of having a day working from home is that it's bubbled away without my intervention!

Using up what's in the fridge... Sausages, roast potatoes, carrots, cauliflower cheese and gravy. Basically, I had nice Sausages in the fridge nearing their date, a bag of new potatoes starting to sprout, and a head of cauliflower probably past it's best. The carrots were from the freezer for fussy child who won't eat cauli.

Leftover stir fry (broccoli, mushroom, green pepper and courgette) with spinach noodles and cashews.

I got exactly 0 hours sleep last night and have run out of adrenaline so dinner is beige freezer food - breaded haddock, oven chips and baked beans.
