God that sounds well fit!

 

[surreybrowncap]

Bangers and mash with red wine (to drink and not added to recipe)
Sausages will be charred - I always forget they are under the grill…

Aww thanks ☺, I am trying to do 2 veggie meals a week and I am fed up of pasta/stir fry/slightly crap jar of sauce curry. Thought I would give it a whirl, so let's hope its good.

 

[Saffy]

Sausages, mashed potato with wholegrain mustard, sprouts, carrots, broccoli, yorkshire pud and onion gravy.

Lemon curd yoghurt and raspberries for pudding.

 

[Looby]

We’ve got mushroom and Camembert pies to try. Mr Looby suggested rice to go with them. He seemed surprised that pie and rice isn’t really a thing.

We’re having new potatoes, broccoli and peas which seems more reasonable.

Tbf I would eat rice with most things so I would give that a go.

I'm with you on this, I love rice, but I feel pies really need something spud related (mash or chips both work equally well) + other veg

I have too many eggs, so I plan a 3 egg scramble on toast.

No such thing as too many eggs.

It was good himself liked all of it, the small one just ate the naan and poppadoms but still it was a hit! So satisfying when you get to add something new to the rota of dinners.

And gravy!

 

[sojourner]

Freeeeeezing today, so it's a good stodgy tea for us - buttery mashed spuds, cheese and onion pies, carrots, mushy peas, caramelised onion gravy. Oh yes.

Possibly dark choc digestives with a massive decaff tea for afters.

 

[Voley]

I need stodge too soj. (Piece of piss this poetry lark btw. )

Cheese and tomato omelette, chips and beans. Tea.

 

[tonysingh]

Pot noodle, beef and tomato version. Coffee.

 

[Numbers]

Macaroni cheese with a macaroni cheese sangwich.
Magnum original for afters.

 

[onenameshelley]

Himself is having chicken Fajitas, with home made wedges as we have only 2 mini wraps left. Small had sausage and chips and I have a chicken, bacon, avacado and cheese roll

 

[weltweit]

I don't have much in and I haven't made a plan. I could just have a baked potato I have cheese but I don't think I have any beans, or I could have a chicken kiev left over from a few days ago, have to rustle up some vegies, sausages from the freezer, or I have some tinned soups, mushroom is one, I could it as a starter. Decision time is coming up! Place your bets now!

You're a natural, mate

I very nearly went for wedges and homelette meself. Good choice

 

[RubyToogood]

I am having spaghetti with tromboncino and blue cheese. I'm about halfway through the tromboncino now, if you ignore a portion of tromboncino mash which is still in the fridge.

Whatever I can get from the food bank. DWP not paying my old age pension due to staff shortages. Funny they always seemed to be enough staff to take NI contributions

Please post your tea here so we know you've had some. If not, let us know. Can drop you PayPal/Deliveroo voucher/supermarket credit/whatever. That goes for any other hungry people reading the thread. Wouldn't fancy my dinner much if it was being read about by people who weren't getting any.

My portion control goes out the window when it comes to Yorkshire pudding though, this is last night's effort cooked in a sandwich tin, it rose to absolutely massive proportions.

Thankfully OH scoffed the half of it that I couldn't manage with some leftover roast spuds, roast carrots and a tuna steak when he got in from work.

I am a little ashamed that I managed to scarf down half of the thing without so much as blinking mind you

They are mostly air tbf.

I would have thought you should crack on with the chicken kiev.

 

[weltweit]

I would have thought you should crack on with the chicken kiev.

Had it only recently though.

It is the thing cooking for one that whatever I buy is enough for two or more so I eat what I want and then the rest languishes in the freezer peeking out at me and my inability to eat it all in one go. I had the mushroom soup, the heart of a past it lettuce and then decided I didn't need any more.

 

[sojourner]

Smoky veggie chilli with brown rice, all the cheese, and sour cream.

Baileys profiteroles for afters.

 

[MrCurry]

Needed to use up some severely freezer burned, really old chicken breast, so have chopped it up and it’s marinating in tikka paste and spices which should help hide the appearance. Will get air fried with onion and peppers later.

Boiled rice and supermarket packet curry sauce on the side.

 

[Epona]

Yesterday I had a massive and very tasty bratwurst in a bun at the Xmas market in Kingston. With ketchup and mustard. Followed by spaghetti pomodoro with mozzarella at an Italian restaurant.

Not sure what I am eating today yet, will report back

 

[Badgers]

Got a good deal on a load of gammon/bacon offcuts this week (5kg for £2)

So cut off the good stuff and rendered all the fat for future use. Going to use the pan to fry some potatoes and garlic. Served with mushrooms and greens.

 

[Epona]

Oh I know, I've got a chunk of roast beef left over in the fridge from when I had a roast the other day - I'll turn that into a stew - beef and carrot stew with dumplings, served with mashed potato and mashed swede.

 

[fishfinger]

Duck legs, red cabbage with apple and baked potatoes.

 

[onenameshelley]

Small wants pasta, himself had a freezer dinner of pork and lentils, I am working till 9pm so a chicken and sweetcorn sandwich.

 

[Numbers]

We bought one of those deboned spatchcock chickens earlier so having that with rice and edamame beans + a red onion salad, which all sounds a bit sensible for me.

The macaroni cheese sangwich I had y/day was one of the nicest Tings I've ever eaten in my life and would happily have it again today.
