What's for tea tonight? (#8)

[nagapie]

Make slaw with the cabbage, beetroot and carrots (add red onion too and a splash of orange juice in the dressing). Cut up red pepper and celery for dips. Broccoli and Stilton soup?

Like the slaw idea. And was thinking of making broccoli soup, but with a load of lemon rather than cheese or cream.

Would also like some one pot veg ideas where I can just throw a load of the veg in together. Guess I could just make some sort of curry.

Pad Thai. The teen said it was the best one I've made yet.

My default use-up-the-veg-before-it-dies approach is stir fry <unimaginative>

I kind of hate stir fry, unless it's got loads of interesting stuff in it, I think I lived on it for too long in past years.

I have some tamarind paste, I wonder if I could just cook it all in that and add some rice. But I'm not good at cooking sans recipe.

Hash browns in burgers is fit.

Beef or chicken?

 

[Thimble Queen]

Ooh I normally have em in chicken but I dont see why beef wouldn't be nice too. As long as cheese and chilli sauce was involved.

 

[crustychick]

we're having baked potatoes - mine with cottage cheese, his with something else... coleslaw and other salad-y things. maybe also some veggie saussies.

I'm with you on the chicken (since today funnily enough when I first tried it) but beef? Nah man, it's not happening. It's like people who put chicken and beef in the same burger! Sacreliige!

 

[avu9lives]

But beef is well fit with potato

 

[sojourner]

Ah fucking BOLLOCKS - forgot to get a lemon.

Right well some kind of spicy lentil soup minus lemon then. Got plenty of dried coriander leaf mind, and might chuck a bit of ginger and chilli in too.

You love potatoes off mate. They have their place, and that place is NOT in any kind of burger or beef-related sandwich.

In fact, in FACT... Corned beef hash is wrong as well. I bet you'd like that in a sandwich wouldn't you you dirty girl. Yeah. Stodgemiester central. I can almost feel the weighty bolus stuck in my oesophagus right now

 

[killer b]

[miss direct]

I've got all the ingredients to do home made nachos and mojitos but might just eat crisps and drink wine and save all that for tomorrow.
