What are you all having to eat tonight? I cook every evening and have been getting bored with the usual meals. Tonight, I've made a Chicken Jambalaya - it's a Hello Fresh recipe I had ages ago, but I bought all the ingredients and have adapted it a bit.

I've made a carrot cake for afters.... with cream grin

Chicken stuffed with a lower fat Boursin type cheese, mash, broccoli, carrots and peas.

Readi;g what you’ll both be having Witzend and Whitewave is making me feel very hungry. They both sound delish.
I’ll be having left over Chilli con carne with a baked potato.
Grapes and orange segments after.

Spaghetti Bolognese and a glass of Merlot.

Whitewavemark2 Thu 18-Mar-21 15:47:07

Roast pork with sage and roast onion. Roast potatoes and parsnips, cabbage and swede. Apple sauce
Melon and grapes

Half a crispy duck, ready to shove in the oven, comes with with Chinese style pancakes and hoisin sauce - will add cucumber and spring onion.
I don’t often buy one of these but they’re exceedingly tasty.

Curried root veg and red lentil stewp, with cauliflower and spinach added for the last few mins, plus lovely warm naan bread.

Thai chicken curry with poppadums & pickles to start. DH will have jasmine rice with his but I’m back on low carb so some salad on my plate.

There’s Greek yogurt and berries for pud and I bet DH will sneak a meringue nest in with his.....?

Chicken, ginger and cashew nut with egg fried rice and prawn toast. ?

ginny Sat 13-Mar-21 10:23:35

Sausage cassoulet tonight.

Witzend Sat 13-Mar-21 10:22:28

Roast chicken, roast potatoes and parsnips, probably with peas and carrots and lots of proper gravy.
Possibly an Eve’s pudding if I can be bothered later, since our fruit and veg box contained Granny Smith’s (again) and I’m not keen, but they go nicely in a pud.

Fish, chips and peas.
OK but not like those from the fish and chip shop!

Salmon, vegetable quiche and a green salad with Mary Berry dressing.Yoghurt for after, with some chopped bananas.

ginny Fri 12-Mar-21 20:42:57

Yesterday was Lamb hotpot.

Cauliflower cheese (lots of nice cheesy sauce) with big baked potatoes.

Patsy70 Fri 12-Mar-21 17:23:29

Liver & bacon with onions, mashed potatoes, cauliflower & peas with gravy - not my favourite but one of the OH’s.

Jaxjacky Fri 12-Mar-21 17:23:18

Different meals here tonight as my husband dislikes fish, other than in batter. So he’s having some Tesco chicken, bacon and pasta dish, I’m having smoked haddock with broccoli, cauliflower and peas.

Mollygo
I hope you enjoy them, we certainly did, perhaps you will report back.

Kim19 Fri 12-Mar-21 16:53:02

Smoked haddock fishcake on a bed of red peppers.

Mollygo Fri 12-Mar-21 16:50:25

Annsixty-never tried the baby parsnips, but now you’ve mentioned them, I’ve added them to tomorrow’s list!?

Pantglas2 Fri 12-Mar-21 16:32:47

Lemon broccoli and smoked salmon linguine with vanilla ice cream with hot salted caramel sauce drizzled over it! Accompanied by a bottle of Sancerre - I’ve been dry and low carb all week so this is my reward ?
