What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Epona]

Nicoise salad Haven't made it for aaaaages and it was a very nice summery evening treat.

Firm favourite here, especially when the weather is hot and humid

 

[RubyToogood]

Vaguely Vietnamese rice noodle salad with fried tofu.

The sauce was a bit thrown together. I can't remember what I used to put in it but it wasn't that.

 

[The39thStep]

Just had a small plate of butterflied sardines fried in flour and breadcrumbs in the bar whilst watching the footy

 

[sojourner]

Veggie hotdogs with boiled onions, slathered in mustard and ketchup.

Tiramisu.

 

[Badgers]

Lamb and apricot kebabs with tzatziki, wraps and salad stuffs.

 

[May Kasahara]

Not sure tonight...I really fancy something like ratatouille or shakshuka, so maybe one of those. Although will need to supply a separate meal for the children of course

 

[BoatieBird]

One of those nacho kits (I'm trying to clear the cupboards of old purchases) pimped with some freezer foraged turkey chilli, loads of cheese and some pickled jalapenos.

 

[Elpenor]

I need to get shot of the last sweet potatoes so them with something else.

 

[moose]

Patties. Ocadian rather than Jamaican, unfortunately, but I'll give them a go. With chips and salad.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Fish sarnie (Youngs cod).

 

[miss direct]

I made fish cakes last night and have loads of the mixture left. Any suggestions as to what I can do with it apart from fish cakes? a sort of bake thing?

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Those bransticks will counteract the 6 eggs

Nah, I eat plenty of fibre so never had a problem with eggs. Dry bran sticks are really nice though - I must have last had them decades ago so forgot what they tasted like.

A fish cake but in the shape of another species - perhaps a cat or dog?

Catfish Cake

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Houmous with ryvita, and about 100g of dry bran sticks.

I fancied a BBQ but I’m not allowed well.. I’m a grown man so can do whatever I fancy but it’s unfair. I’d eat BBQ for breakfast, dinner and tea given half a chance.

We’re having a Chinese delivered instead.

We’re having BBQ again tomorrow

 

[nogojones]

Sweet potato, peanut and coconut soup. Bread n butter

Ooh.. that sounds lovely.

 

[sheothebudworths]

Yesterday was ready made pies (chicken and asparagus and a quorn chicken one), green beans and broccoli and the last quarter of some pear/almond/choc cake from the freezer.

Today is homemade leek, red onion and cheddar quiche with a big old salad. Almond fingers for pudding.

 

[sojourner]

Ooh.. that sounds lovely.

It really does.

 

[RubyToogood]

Second half of the noodle salad. Will be attempting to improve on the sauce.

 

[Orang Utan]

Spaghetti carbonara

 

[Zorra]

Pulled chicken, baguettes and salad.

Thanks for all the justifiable outrage on my behalf In fact I did get away with making only one meal: baked cod, rice, broccoli, and a delicious side of fennel and spinach braised with white wine and garlic, which of course the children refused to touch.

 

[Elpenor]

My sweet potatoes had gone a bit funny so I chucked them.

It ended up being gnocchi, tomato, red pepper and mozzarella bake, care of a BBC recipe I bookmarked last week. It was really nice. I will make it again as I have 3 more packs of gnocchi to use up.

I never ate stuff like that as a kid as my dad doesn’t like cheese or tomatoes, so it still doesn’t feel like a natural thing to cook Yet oddly we went on holiday to Italy 3 times as a kid

 

[Epona]

I had chicken pie, peas and chips. With vinegar on the chips, gravy too

My dad actually WAS half Italian and loathed garlic.

That might be why you're not allowed to have BBQs all the time.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Bernard Matthews turkey steak sarnie.

 

[sojourner]

Roast field mushrooms, peppers, onion and garlic, with pesto fusilli.

Gu mousses - dark choc and salted caramel.
