What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[tarannau]

New yorkshire tin worked a treat - 6 jumbo sized puddings coming out perfectly. Still a mountain of beef left, but we got through lots of veg and spuds.

A little unpleasantly stuffed if the truth be told. I had stacked up the fridge for a cheese board (Cornish Yarg, a lovely super mature Welsh cheddar, some blue cheese from Yorkshire with a name that sounded a bit like (Ricky) Gervais and some Bath soft) and someone brought a pudding too. Would have been rude not to fit in both

Tomorrow must be a less gluttinous day

 

[Thimble Queen]

A quick stirfry of mushrooms, peppers, courgette, onions, garlic, ginger, chilli, coriander, cumin and fresh squeezed lemon juice - this made the onions all jammy. We had egg and noodles with it also. Happy tummy.

 

[ShiftyBagLady]

Had pizza this evening. Was dirty, greedy and lovely.

 

[Ms T]

Fishfinger sandwiches and red wine.

Mmmm. Yarg. Wrapped in nettles?

 

[tarannau]

Yep, that's the one. The nettle wrapper looks like a green marbled layer in surprisingly attractive fashion. Nice stuff, as was the jervaulx blue and Bath Soft. Trying out an all English cheeseboard for a bit of a change

 

[Voley]

Splendid. It's the shit, is Yarg.

I had a chest freezer in my BEDROOM in my last place (still don't have it in my - much larger - kitchen here cos there's a proper sized built one, so now the *spare* freezer is in the downstairs room - and it's still in use ).

I've still got more celery soup to use up, so that for me... *sigh* Daughter's gone to yet another friend's for a sleepover (her life is a social whirl, I swear) andam getting my son sausage and chips from the chippy when we drop his friend off later (which is a bit mental cos they're just about to have a large plate of oven chips each now, too ).

Can you imagine getting broccoli with your sausage & chips from the chippy Sheo?....

 

[Looby]

Roast beef and all that guff today. I am going to make my own yorkshires though, which I haven't done since I was taught as a kid. : o

That's different!

I ended up having garlicky mushrooms on toast last night, followed by several packets of roast beef Monster Munch.

This morning I put the pulled pork on, so it should be falling apart by the time the kids get back. We're having it with homemade garlic bread and asparagus - which is a bit weird, tbf - but I'm looking forwards to it even so!
Although actually, we'll probably just have the asparagus as a starter and then have the pork and garlic bread along with some cucumber, cress and mayo.

I REALLY fancy a nice, stodgy, hot pudding too, but I can't be arsed to make anything and I've only got ice cream and frozen berries in the freezer.... :-(

 

[Cheesypoof]

Last night was amazing 'snack's dinner' at a friends...we started with salami, camembert, foccacia strips, water biscuits, three types of humous and green olives, followed by a selection of various dishes: steak strips in soy sauce, two types of ravioli: pumpkin and spinach and ricotta, and a walnut and watercress salad. Accompanied by loads of wine. And when I came home later I also wolfed down a bowl of (cheap) beef noodles.

Tonights dinner will be spiralli pasta with tuna and black olive bolognese - a quick pot was cooked the other night

 

[Pip]

Don't know don't know don't know don't know don't know don't know don't fucking knooowwwww.

 

[Numbers]

Beef and potatoe curry with some roti + rice an pea.

I an I

 

[Biddlybee]

Extra garlicy hot potato salad and a quiche from the freezer, forgot what I put in it... maybe spinach?

 

[Cheesypoof]

A spag bol that I'm gonna start in a minute and have bubbling away on the hob all afternoon. Making enough for at least all the weekend if not most of the week too.

How'd this work out and how'd you make it?

 

[moonsi til]

That's different!

Face it Sheo...chippies don't seve broccoli with chips cos it's a well weird combination. I once got served a cheese & vegetable toasted sandwhich that came with lil broccoli florets sticking out of it....I had to send it back as it had no place being there. I was expecting peppers, onions...that sort of vegetable....

 

[Thimble Queen]

Veggy chilli with soy mince and brown rice, made by the boy.

 

[moose]

Heston's spinach and 3 mushroom pie from Waitrose, boiled new spuds, roasted carrots and tomatoes, peas.
Ice cream with a Gu choc pot melted and poured over the top.

*belch*

 

[mrsfran]

Santino made an excellent chicken, pancetta and leek pie with mash and green beans. It was ace. And he made an F - shape out of the leftover pastry and decorated the top of the pie with it for me

 

[aqua]

awwww mrsfran that's really cute

we had pizza which was nice and easy

 

[tufty79]

comfort foods of tomato soup and poppyseed rolls; maybe pizza and salad and garlic mushrooms after. and scones with cream and jam, from the tramp's buffet section of sainsburys
aw at your pie, mres fran

 

[moomoo]

Meatballs and tagliatelle. It was gorgeous and the first proper dinner I'd eaten since last Saturday.

 

[Pip]

Tunnocks teacake and a carrot, wicked.

 

[strung out]

i had pie

 

[feyr]

i was at work so i took salad in ,made from a red onion, half a cucumber , a green pepper and a yellow pepper, all cubed and mixed together with a teeny bit of chilli oil and some chopped spring onions.

 

[crustychick]

last night, we went out, for pizza tonight, we have *nothing* in the house (again) so it's the shops for me... although I quite fancy a sweet potato and mushroom thai red curry, so maybe that....

 

[sheothebudworths]

Chicken in a creamy tarragon sauce. Was going to have it with tagliatelle, but my son's off school ill so won't have a chance to get any and somehow spaghetti doesn't feel right ( ) so might do some rice.
Also means that there're only peas as a veg option, which my daughter doesn't like but she's going to have to make do, I think!
Ice cream milkshakes for pudding (banana and frozen berries).

 

[iona]

What can I do with a packet of mini chicken fillets that's cheap and doesn't involve potatoes and veg?

 

[Looby]

We got the M&S deal so we're having rib eye steak, garlic mushrooms, green beans and chunky chips then chocolate melty puddings, red wine.

We did get some Camembert and tomato tarts but I might have those another day with salad for dinner rather than as a starter tonight.
