We had Paella courtesy of the M&S dine in menu. Citron tart after but I did exert myself by adding some home cooked and picked blackberries ?

We had carvery today. Tables well spaced indoors and we could have eaten outdoors. Numbers at carvery counter regulated and veggies and extras like apple sauce and gravy served behind the counter.
We’ve eaten out a lot more recently. Some places use alternate tables, some have screens between tables. All wait staff are still wearing masks.

Spicy tortilla wraps (all in a box from Aldi) just a chicken onion and two peppers. Everything chopped and prepared for when DH gets in.

This will be followed by two chocolate digestives.

Piri piri chicken with rice and peppers.

Mollygo Thu 26-Aug-21 13:16:45

Roasted vegetable and pesto pizza, with added Bresaola and extra cherry tomatoes.
Dessert, since it’s hot, is going to be icecream. Now I’ve found somewhere that does boxes of 6 mini-magnums at 2 for £4
It’s an inexpensive but welcome dessert as we often don’t want much.

Steak pie, jacket potatoes and tons of veg!

Leftovers from yesterday’s roast chicken, which I shall shred and fry with onions, tomatos, green and red pepper, served with plain boiled rice, and salsa .

Vegetable curry, delicious if I say so myself?

Blossoming Wed 01-Sept-21 19:20:23

Mr. B has made a delicious lasagne.

Greyduster Wed 01-Sept-21 20:02:32

Home made ham, vegetable and lentil soup. Hearty, tasty and a taste of my childhood.

Toad in the hole , requested by DGS.

TeresaLambert Wed 01-Sept-21 21:43:33

Healthy salad with garlic bread and maybe some wine too.

Blossoming Fri 03-Sept-21 16:45:36

Tonight Mr. B is serving up oven baked cod with new potatoes, carrots, peas and lemon butter smile

Mr M says Lamb, green beans and baby potatoes will be ready when I get home from work. It’s a grey day, so I’m looking forward to that.

Redhead56 Fri 03-Sept-21 17:04:30

I am making a stir fry with duck and noodles and Greek yoghurt with blackberries from the garden.

MawBe Fri 03-Sept-21 18:36:22

Raie au beurre - Skate wing with fennel butter and lemon slices baked in a bag in the oven, new potatoes and home grown beans.
An absolute treat, drinking espresso martini as I write.

Grannmarie Fri 03-Sept-21 18:45:27

Ullabirgitta, that sounds wonderful! I am a fan of seafood.
My dinner tonight was king prawn pasta with green salad and mayonnaise dressing. Dessert, pomegranate seeds stirred through natural yoghurt, accompanied by a lovely Wolf Blass chardonnay semillon.
Greyduster, like you, I made a big pot of lentil and vegetable soup with ham ribs today, family coming for soup and sandwiches lunch tomorrow, looking forward to it.
Have a lovely weekend everyone ?

Cod, chips and mushy peas from the local chip shop after an unexpectedly busy and stressful day.

It was lovely, washed down with Sauvignon Blanc.

Callistemon Fri 03-Sept-21 19:05:18

Ps I know it's not healthy but I had yogurt and fruit for breakfast and missed lunch.

ginny Fri 03-Sept-21 19:14:20

Morrocan lamb stew with couscous, roasted carrots and broccoli.

Grandmadinosaur Fri 03-Sept-21 19:59:23

Smoked haddock fish cake with few oven chips and mushy peas. I had a bowl of melon and strawberries after.

Jaxjacky Fri 03-Sept-21 20:40:53

I had leftover cottage pie and broccoli, MrJ had a kebab he bought home from the shop next door to the pub where I left him earlier!
