What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[tonysingh]

Salt and pepper chicken, long grain rice.

 

[Epona]

I think I'm going to do mushroom stroganoff, will be served with rice/pasta/egg noodles (whichever of those I fancy at the time)

Change of plan. My wife rightly pointed out that on a miserable wet day like today the last thing you want is salad.

We're having a baked spud instead

Very sensible, nice and warming

 

[UrbaneFox]

Just ordered a Deliveroo, chicken livers and mixed grill with chips and salad for my neighbour, mezze and grilled chicken and rice for me.

Large portions so it should last for a few days.

See you at the weekend.

 

[moonsi til]

Lentil cottage pie & broccoli. First time in yonks I have enjoyed broccoli.

 

[Maggot]

As it's National Pie Week, I'm making a pie with a creamy onion, leek and goats cheese filling. If it turns out well I'll post a pic.

Rather rustic pastry

 

[shakespearegirl]

Went out for a large lunch of lamb chops… so had a mini meat pie from freezer for tea

 

[sojourner]

Cauldron Lincolnshire saussies, mashed spuds, sprouts, shredded/steamed spring greens, onion gravy.

Last of the dark choc cornflake cakes with mini eggs decoration.

 

[shakespearegirl]

I’ve gotsome frozen cauliflower cheese bake out of the freezer. Gonna fry up some red leeks and lardon, add some extra cheese and bake again…

 

[smee]

Round a friend's for tea tonight, think he's making vegan chilli and rice. About to make some more of the banana choc cake to take with us.

 

[Numbers]

Having yesterday’s planned Tea of tempura fingers of fish and salad.

Went proper off piste y/day. We did have the roast spuds but I sliced mine up and had it in a pitta with cheese slivers hunks of cheddar + a bit of soup (forgot there was some in the fridge which needed to be finished), I was dipping the roast potatoe and cheddar pittas into the soup and it was glorious.

 

[Aladdin]

A very very hot Thai green curry.

 

[domestos]

Felafel, red onion, lettuce cucumber and chili mint wraps with tahini sauce. Very nice

 

[domestos]

Charlie Bighams fish pie from the reduced section and I’m roasting some odds and sods of veg to go with it.

Was it any good?

 

[pinkmonkey]

Was it any good?

Excellent, I love Bighams meals but only on discount.

 

[davesgcr]

Made some leek and potato soup (with peas chucked in) - when blended looks rather beige ....(John Major might appreciate it for the colour)

Actually tasted fine ......paprika and parsley jazzed up the appearance a bit !

Mine always comes out beige - there's nothing really green enough in it to make the soup green, unless you're only going to use the green part of the leek - the rest of the ingredients are quite pale.
I agree that a sprinkle of herbs on it definitely improves the appearance a bit.
Flavour usually not an issue

 

[friedaweed]

Fishcakes buttys apparently. We had cheesy beans on toast late afternoon lunch so it's a deep dive in the freezer and paper scissors stone who chooses. I lost.

 

[quiet guy]

Had an Aldi veggie sweet potato curry from their freezer section with a Naan bread, very tasty.

Boring week here, OH's pay got messed up and it should have been sorted by now but hasn't been, so I'm a bit restricted to ingredients we already have.
Fortunately since the shortages and lockdowns from 2020 onwards I've been much better about keeping the freezer and cupboards well stocked!
Probably not going to get sorted out now until next payday so we've got another week of "whatever we have in".

Tonight I made myself some more bacon and mushroom pasta, this time I put some tomato purée in it so it was a bit different to the last one I did a few days ago.
Will have to have a think about meals for the next week just in case, or I am going to be fed up of pasta dishes involving bacon (I have quite a lot of back bacon rashers in the freezer!) by the end of next week.

Pretty bad of his employer not to get it sorted out asap.

[poppy60]

Tonight will be salmon,green beans and baby potatoes,followed by an apple turnover.

 

[Epona]

Tonight I am having a Chinese style chicken curry with egg fried rice ready meal.

Lacking inspiration, tired, feet still cold from being out all day, most of the pots and pans need washing up, and I have to be up early in the morning so ready meal it is.
Will have with a glass of merlot and then a few squares of dark chocolate (Lidl) for afters.

 

[Ron Merlin]

Bacon sarnie. Brown sauce.

 

[moose]

Delicious jar/packet tea. Spaghetti with Loyd Grossman tomato and basil sauce, Paxo no-meatballs (nom!) and plain part-baked baguette garlic and herbed up.
Espresso Martinis.

 

[iona]

Three jacket potatoes with black bean chilli and cheddar. Hopefully the lack of tuna mayo means I'm not legally obliged to run myself over now since I only have a bus pass.
