What's for tea tonight? (#8)

Veggie mate was staying for the weekend so Friday was curry delivery with too much beer and rum.
Saturday I did Mexican wraps - chilli, salsa, cheese, refried beans, lettuce, soured cream, tortillas. Too much beer and rum.
Sunday was pasta with tomato & olive sauce.Too much beer and rum.
Tonight leftover curry, rice & naan. No boozes.
 
Tomato, aubergine, tuna sauce with pasta. Mine will have black olives and capers (actually I don't think I have any. Jalapeños instead) and the child will have hers as is and pick out all the aubergine that hasn't disintegrated.
 
Craving spicy liver and veggies tonight :thumbs: I'm going to pop to Sainsbos on the way home to see if I can find some liver to make some kind of curry.
 
I did chicken livers in madras sauce and they're pretty much inedible. Or maybe I'm queasy? Dunno. I can't even look at them :mad: :(
Dinner will probably be lentils/spinach/cauliflower.
 
Ham, cheese, and lettuce... rolled up in deli wraps. Not ideal, but I need to leave Collioure tomorrow first thing, and drive back to the UK to take my youngest camping at the end of the week for her half term. Tomorrow's tea, before I crash out in a French service station carpark... well that'll be interesting.
 
I just made melanzane alla parmigiana (aka aubergines with tomato sauce n cheese) - been meaning to make it for years and what a meal it was... Bit of faff with salting, drying and frying the aubergines but my god... So worth it.
You rarely need to salt aubergines these days, they've had the bitterness bred out of them. I just brush the slices with oil and griddle 'em, they don't soak as much up, and it's less faff, but still full of auberginey goodness.

shifting gears - wot moose said.

I'm that idle I don't even do that moose - I just slice them thinner and cook for a little bit longer. That parmesan crust is pretty much indestructible anyway and you'd have to do it overbloodynight to make it actually burn.

Anyway, we're on freezer-foraged veggie meatballs in tom and basil sauce tonight, with fusilli probably, and garrrrlic bread.
 
We're down to last bits of money so meant to be eating stuff from freezer/cupboards. The sausages that were planning to have didn't get taken out last night so I will see what's in tb on the way home... I really fancy some fish...
