What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[farmerbarleymow]

Roasted red pepper pasta salad - reduced to clear in Marks. Got another one for afters later.

 

[Zorra]

Kedgeree which was very nice if slightly too hot. Apple and a peach for afters.

 

[May Kasahara]

Chilli made with the leftover roast beef. Haven't decided yet whether to serve with rice or nachos-style.

Kids are having oven food.

 

[Epona]

I've skipped tea tonight largely due to feeling stressed about various stuff (mostly financial) - if I am stressed/anxious/upset the first thing that goes is my appetite.

I wanted to do a keema (inspired by a post a bit upthread!) but I think I'll do it as a late lunch before I go out to the event I am volunteering at tomorrow evening. Just don't feel like it this evening.

 

[shakespearegirl]

Last night was kiev, chips and peas. Tonight home made pizza after post work sail

 

[BoatieBird]

Buttermilk chicken burgers in brioche buns with lettuce and cheese - picked up some pre sliced port salut on offer which I reckon will do the job nicely
Fries and onion rings to go with them.

 

[sojourner]

Leftover veggie sausage and chickpea stew with brown rice.

Cake to be confirmed.

 

[Epona]

I've got some daal on the hob for us both to have as an early tea, I'll also do that keema for myself, and garlic and coriander naans out of a pack for both of us.
Maybe some rice too.

 

[Orang Utan]

Shepherd’s Pie

 

[May Kasahara]

Pasta for the boy, noodles for the girl, big salad for me. Actually I CBA to do any of it, and they're not exactly clamouring for it either so maybe it won't happen at all.

 

[blairsh]

Comfort tea of toad int hole (one large, luxury banger), mash, green beans and gravy. It were fuckin rate nice

Too late but always nachos

 

[Zorra]

Had the shittiest day of a shit week, ordered pizza for 7pm and waited whilst kids watched a movie and I drank beer and featured with rage. Got a message at 18.50 that they cancelled the order. So oven tea, with added what-the-fuckness.

I hope you have a better day tomorrow!

Didn't do rice in the end, as I had 1 dish more planned for myself than for OH and I found we had more potatoes that needed using than I thought, my keema had some of the spuds in it so I did him some spicy roast potatoes to use up the potatoes and to go with his daal and naan bread, he had some home made hot sauce in the fridge too so it ended up going well for an early tea with limited time for me to prep and cook before we both went out this evening (him to work, me to volunteer at a bat monitoring thing).

Leftovers of that tomorrow, but with some rice (maybe mushroom rice but I must remember to ask OH to pick up some basmati and some mushrooms on his way past the supermarket in the morning!) and I might do a spinach dish also.

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Smoked mackerel with veg and rice.

 

[May Kasahara]

Takeaway pizza. Daughter's birthday request

 

[poppy60]

Just had chicken-en-croute,corn on the cob,sprouts,baby potatoes and a few green beans.

 

[sojourner]

Spinach and black bean curry with brown basmati.

Tiramisu with fresh blackberries

 

[Biddlybee]

Aubergine and mushroom arabbiatta for me, macaroni cheese for them.

 

[RubyToogood]

Made some pesto earlier in the week when pinching out the basil flowers, and have not been eating it. But am tired of pasta so had a sort of hot salad of boiled potatoes, green beans and mozzarella with pesto. Yum.

Pesto goes bloody lovely with boiled new potatoes.

I am firmly in camp spud when it comes to carbs. Rice I don't really get - and can't cook it well.

I am firmly in camp spud when it comes to carbs. Rice I don't really get - and can't cook it well.

I'm the opposite pretty much - now there are some meals that need spuds - roasties with a roast dinner & gravy, sausage/egg beans and chips, fish & chips, pie and mash or chips. I'm not going to eat those things with rice instead.
But in general those are the exceptions and I bloody love rice

 

[Zorra]

Filled pasta with a rocket, blue cheese and walnut salad. Pretty nice and took less than ten minutes. Followed by an evening doing a jigsaw puzzle with my daughter so feeling very wholesome.

 

[UrbaneFox]

Poached salmon with pasta and some sauce I had in the fridge - aubergine and a bit boring.

Very ripe nectarines.

 

[krtek a houby]

Grilled eel on rice

 

[farmerbarleymow]

Not sure - might have mackerel and rice again as I've got a lot of fish in. Might have eggs instead - will decide later.

These Greek potatoes will blow your mind - they're lemony, crispy and creamy all at the same time. Go with everything, & everyone loves them!
