What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[iona]

The last few spoonfuls of mixed beans with a couple of grilled peppers from a jar thrown in to make them taste of something. Some volunteer potatoes I found growing where they shouldn't be. Probably about a pound of spicy salad mix dunked in balsamic dressing. Two bacon medallions fried with loads of mushrooms. Cuppa. Toasted buttered rowies. Cuppa.

Stewed apple with cinnamon and yoghurt later if I want more food before bed.

 

[shakespearegirl]

Korean chicken wings, hispi cabbage and fries. Took forever to arrive but was
Huge and delicious

 

[BoatieBird]

Chicken fajitas, but I don't fancy standing at the cooker to cook it in a pan so I think I'll chuck the chicken, peppers and onions in the oven to cook while I sit outside with a G&T

 

[pinkmonkey]

It's looking like a chippy tea, or a Chinese. We're filling up our water tank in a nearby village, then we're moving our boat into my hometown and then we've got to walk and get the car from where we were moored, a long walk through fields in the hot sun. By the time we've moved boat & car we'll be too tired for cooking.

That should work, definitely too hot to be standing over a hob turned up high!

 

[sojourner]

Early dart today, gotta go another site then home and out for a nice afternoon walk. Am thinking a chippy tea on the way home...

Followed by all the dark chocolate.

I think I'll be doing curry tonight, will report back later when I've decided for sure. Even if all else fails I have to use some cauli and potatoes so aloo gobi (which I like to do dry style, roasted in oil/ghee and spices) is a definite. OH doesn't like cauli but we have spinach in the freezer so can do sag aloo in a pan for him to have in the morning. If I have the energy there will be other dishes.

Am thinking BBQ, just a small one. I fancy some Rasta kebabs, like dese.

 

[Ms T]

Last night was spinach and chickpea curry with a wholemeal Khobez bread.

Tonight have people over for a birthday dinner (two of us have birthdays this weekend!) so pushing the boat out slightly and firing up the BBQ. We will have pickled cherries with burrata if I find some otherwise buffalo mozzarella and ciabatta; grilled sea bass with warm potato salad and then some fancy cakes or tartlets or eclairs from the patisserie in Brixton Village (depending on what they have).

 

[iona]

Deconstructed frittata (I ate all the cold boiled potatoes before I could get round to cooking, and I'll probably do some scrambled eggs before I get round to chopping the other veg )

 

[Saffy]

Chilli, rice, salad and a massive french stick.
Hazelnut and chocolate fake Cornetto for pudding.

 

[Epona]

I've not got started on curry and it all seems a bit too much right now (it is SO fucking hot and I don't feel like cooking or eating), will have some toast or a fish finger sarnie later and do curry tomorrow.

Eminently sensible

Eminently sensible

TY! Seriously it's 9pm, I've got the back windows open and it's still over 29C in the sitting room, I did not fancy a multi-dish BIR fakeaway odyssey tonight - either cooking or eating it. The weather is supposed to be a bit cooler tomorrow!

In fact, my 11yo made the pizza and I have to say it might be the best pizza I've ever had.

 

[Looby]

I’m meeting my friend after her swim and going to Harvester on the beach. Whatever I have will be disappointing but it’s a nice view and I do love a salad cart and those little rolls.

This was predictably shit. So awful I got a refund.

I thought a burger was safe because you can’t fuck up a burger if your ‘thing’ is grilling stuff right. Fucking inedible.

Tonight we had pasta and sauce. That wasn’t great either but as it cost about 75p I don’t mind.

Really disappointed to hear that, going to Harvester was a big treat when I was younger!
I mean I expect it was shit then too but we didn't eat out much

 

[poppy60]

Tonight will be having pepperoni pizza and mixed veg.

 

[Orang Utan]

Lamb and beans
Baked potatoes slathered in butter

 

[sojourner]

Veggie spag bol made with soya mince and button mushrooms.

Homemade pecan brownies with fresh strawbs we picked this morning and a dollop of vanilla ice cream.

 

[May Kasahara]

Hot dogs and chips.

 

[iona]

Fish and chips. Still had half a flask of tea left so I've brought that down to sit on the beach and have a cuppa after my food and before walking back.

Got a big bowl of all the reject strawberries that aren't good enough to sell back at home, so probably those and a chocolate walnut brownie later.

 

[Ron Merlin]

Oakham chicken leg and thigh done in the air-fryer, Sri Lankan-style "spicy rice" from the kind lady in the local shop, cherry toms, a pickled dill cucumber and a few (smug homegrown) radishes.

 

[Epona]

Hopefully, the curry that I was planning but failed to cook last night.

It's really too hot for this cooking lark atm

 

[RubyToogood]

Farmers' market spinach and sweet potato curry with rice. It wasn't bad but not worth the price. Not from the normal person I get ready meals from, she was sold out.

 

[Numbers]

BBQ

 

[Epona]

Still too hot to cook, it is absolutely roasting in here. I have properly cooled and stored cooked rice and lentils in the fridge which I will turn into proper lush dishes tomorrow.

 

[Numbers]

There’s 4 BBQ’s on the go out back on my little strip, smell is glorious and thankfully nobody has their music up too loud, it’s loud but we’re all respecting each other.

 

[weltweit]

Greens, courgette, tomatoes, red pepper, and some light Hellmans.

Trying to eat more healthy things ..
