What's for tea tonight? (#8)

Freezer foraged chicken, sweetcorn and orzo stew. My god my husband has stashed some weird shit in the freezer - two whole oranges, some gluten free crusts (1 per bag, 5 bags) weird chocolate scrapings…
 
Last night I had one of my one pan rice dishes.
I find they are a bit like stir-fries - you can have the healthiest ingredients going involved, but somehow end up with a mountain of food that undoes any sense of healthy eating virtue you might have built up when chopping the veg.

Anyway the one I did last night was not so healthy because it had a small bit of bacon in it, but alongside that was a little bit of diced chicken with lots of onion, garlic, red pepper, chilli flakes, peas, bit of white wine, long grain rice, paprika, chicken stock, saffron, and fresh parsley.

Tonight it's a late one of another sausage traybake - sausages, potatoes, red onions and tenderstem broccoli and a bit of gravy. I'm in a bit of a food rut over the weekend, have plans for Monday/Tuesday food but muddling through with whatever is available until then. I like a sausage traybake anyway so it's still a good tea, just a bit uninspired.
 
Hopefully a bbq. SO picked up a carrier bag full of marinaded stuff going cheap as today's the last date on it. Think there will be leftovers looking at it all but nice to have in rhe fridge for a free days to make into something else/nibble on.
 
Hot dogs.
Veggie for N, I'm having Polish pork ones.
With onions, mustard and ketchup ofc.
I'll do a bit of salad also to make an effort to have something healthy.

EDIT: Oh I picked up a half price "Rhubarb & Custard Cake" from the freezer cabinet at Iceland, will be having some of that for afters.

Given up on even bothering with bread today, carnivore day it seems, BBQ is cleaned out and ready, checked sunset, SO noped out on the fire pit due to bad sleep.
Really wishing that other tree next door had come down I keep having to move around the garden. Just seen a dragonfly tho which was confusing the pond is empty.
 
Out for lunch so had salt n pepper squid, was nice if ridiculously small, have some leftover pork shoulder from yesterday and way too things that can go in wraps. Only actual problem was bringing out 4 plates in 5 minutes then 10min more for the next 2, then 10min more for those after that. So first lot had finished before 2nd lot, 2nd before 3rd etc. Surprisingly no actual drama, despite being worried about regards my behaviour (SO has anxiety and it doesn't require logic sometimes plus her mums an arse). Seems somehow I missed many looks and implied nonsense, MIL snatching a very thick 0-21 life book off daughter was weird tho. Kept asking SO across the table, not daughter who was sat next to her and trying to look at it, whose book it now was....
