What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[Epona]

Supermarket pepperoni pizza for me tonight!

 

[BoatieBird]

I made a big chilli con carne yesterday.
Had it with rice yesterday and again today with jacket potatoes.

 

[shakespearegirl]

Had a late huge Sunday roast and might pop out for a bao bun snack later. We are staying in super central Lagos - Portugal - town is packed with English football fans on the lash

I do love a Sunday roast! Bao buns too tbf. OK food. I like food

 

[mrsfran]

Made an effort today: Cochinita pibil - delicious Mexican slow-cooked pork flavoured with allspice berries, annatto, cloves, cumin, peppercorns, and orange juice. In soft tacos with pink pickled onion, refried beans, avocado and coriander.

I wouldn’t normally have a roast in this heat, but there is nowhere on our side of the Algarve that does a decent vegan roast so we never go out for it.

We’ve decided to get our bao to take back to Airbnb as the football crowds are huge and loud

 

[kalidarkone]

Prawns and brocoli stir fried in ABV oil and miso with udon noodles.

Glad to hear it, no-one needs that at tea time

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Cod, spuds and veg.

 

[sojourner]

Made a stonking garlicky mushroom and mascarpone sauce yesterday which we had with wholewheat fusilli and Romaine leaves.

Tonight's tea is leftover leek and cannellini bean gratin, mashed spuds, carrots, onion gravy.

Shop-bought choccy cake with blueberries.

 

[mrsfran]

Tortellini pasta bake.

 

[BoatieBird]

Tofu traybake with yellow pepper, red onion and tenderstem broccoli.
Rice.

 

[Numbers]

Risotto with either cumberlands or fish fingers.

 

[nottsgirl]

Freezer mac and cheese.

 

[shakespearegirl]

Peking duck and pancakes. Yum!

 

[RubyToogood]

Tofu and carrot curry from the freezer and perfectly cooked brown basmati from the rice cooker.

The tofu curry froze really well and was if anything better than before. I could do with some more freezable veggie recipes really, wean myself off the farmers market ready meals which are delicious but high fat.

Also, if having curry I tend not to do a vegetable as it seems wrong to just do some peas or whatever and saag aloo is not going to happen. So I can at least add plenty of veg.

 

[May Kasahara]

Lemon and garlic pork steaks, rice and broccoli. Plus I made some green seasoning to stir through the rice - mint, coriander, parsley, sorrel, fresh garlic, spring onion, lime juice, olive oil, all whizzed up - which was a good addition.

 

[May Kasahara]

BoatieBird how do you do your tofu traybake? I've got a pack of tofu that needs using and fancy doing something other than curry.

Cut the tofu into cubes (the smaller the cubes the more crispy bits you get), choose your veg - tenderstem broccoli, baby corn, green beans, peppers, red onions, mushrooms - whatever you fancy.

Choose your flavourings. My favourites are Chinese 5 spice and roasted sesame oil or smoked paprika, garlic and EVOO

Mix it all up with your hands to get it all good and coated and stick it in a hot oven for 20-25 minutes.

We make (and freezes well) vegetable jalfrezi a lot - lots of peppers, onion, often add courgette, and tofu or seitan. I like the curry recipes from holycowvegan online for the sauces and spice mix’s.

 

[smee]

Tonight I’m at work and have the choice of freezer leftovers either veg jalfrezi and rice or spring potato stew with fridge-pickled veg on the side. Today I’m making a nice big mushroom/lentil/soya bolognaise to have tomorrow night with either pasta or potatoes.

 

[nottsgirl]

Spaghetti al limone.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Mince with spuds and veg.

 

[sojourner]

Methi dal, brown rice, roast spiced cauli.

Fella made a big batch of double choc bramble-jelly-melty-middle muffins yesterday, so 2 of them with a decaff coffee. I've given up attempting to only eat 1 muffin. I just spend the entire evening hankering for another, so I might as well just fucking have the second one and enjoy it.

 

[mrsfran]

Fish fingers, potato waffles and beans.

 

[Numbers]

Fish fingers here too, with quinoa. Might make it into a sangwich.

 

[May Kasahara]

Smoked salmon pasta.

 

[Epona]

We had prawn and pea risotto on Monday night.
Tuesday night it was prawn and tomato spaghetti with garlic bread.

 

[LeytonCatLady]

Bernard Matthews turkey burger with spuds and veg.
