Witzend The tortellini in sauce combo is one of my favourite meals when I'm in a hurry.

Prawns in pasta with courgettes, tomatoes and lemon tonight. Everything has to have tomatoes at the moment! Must get around to making some passata.

Fish and chips from the chippy, mushy peas for me, I too will have a couple of tomatoes, it’s a good season for them.

We had friends round for lunch yesterday and as usual I did far too much food so we're still ploughing through leftovers. So tonight it will be bits n bobs - quiche, sausage rolls, crusty bread etc.

Another one here with cottage pie previously made and frozen, with peas and onion gravy. No dessert during the week except one square of chocolate.

GrannyGravy13 Wed 17-Aug-22 18:19:14

Jacket potato with cheesy beans along with a green salad (DH is out so it’s an easy quick meal for one)

maddy47 Wed 17-Aug-22 18:47:51

Salmon with sugar snaps and corn on the cob.

grannydarkhair Wed 17-Aug-22 22:02:36

Minced beef cooked with carrots, onions, butter beans (defrosted). Mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes mixed together. Broccoli and cauliflower.

Mollygo Wed 17-Aug-22 22:07:47

Egg salad sandwiches and fruit juice. We took GC out for lunch and I don’t like two big meals in a day.

NanKate Wed 17-Aug-22 22:15:38

Stuffed mushrooms, roasted veg and a jacket potato, followed by coffee mousse and raspberries. DH finished off the tiramisu. It’s our one veggie meal of the week.

BigBertha1 Wed 17-Aug-22 22:21:26

Cottage pie...homemade

MrsKen33 Thu 18-Aug-22 09:44:07

Tonight , homemade Bolognaise and spelt spaghetti. Haven’t had that before but the pea one was fine .

henetha Thu 18-Aug-22 09:46:58

I'm running my freezer down at the moment so hope I can find something lurking at the back for dinner later. I seem to have lots of fish cakes for some reason, they must have been on special offer! And old potato croquettes and hash browns.

Whitewavemark2 Thu 18-Aug-22 12:17:19

Macaroni cheese, salad

GrannyGravy13 Thu 18-Aug-22 12:59:49

We have teenage GSs here for dinner, so it will be a full on meat feast for them and DH BBQ ribs and chilli chicken wings, for me salad with something (yet to be decided)

Jaxjacky Thu 18-Aug-22 13:40:15

Frittata with courgette, sweet potato, onion, leftover gammon and a sprinkling of Parmesan.
