We had eggs baked in avocados on a base of beluga lentils and leeks

Bockwurst, rye bread and spicy beans.

Son is cooking spaghetti Bolognese, and we'll have ice cream with fruit afterwards. I've just had a coffee Stout. Lovely.

I had a Linda McCartney mozzarella burger on a roll with salad. I'm not vegetarian but they are delish.

They're lovely, aren't they?
I sometimes do a super-duper stuffed bap with mustard, salad and all the trimmings. smile

Shakshuka tonite (made to use up home grown red peppers and tomatoes) with an egg poached in the sauce snd served with tomato and onion couscous. Leftovers for tomoro as I’ll be out all day.

We had veggie sausages (never tried them before) with some ready made sainsbury onion gravy (don’t knock till you’ve tried it!), mash and broccoli. It was nice and I didn’t miss the meaty sausages we usually have. I’ve been dieting recently and lost around one and a half stone loads more to go, but the veggie sausages are much lower in calories. Sigh. At least another two stone to go!

Cheese and tomato sarnie, and a packet of crisps.

Poor man’s pizza. Cheese on toast with tomatoes on the top. Really fancy a packet of crisps though, but can’t keep them in the house. Too more’ish!

Dare I admit that we’re going to have some of the roast chicken from the other day, heated through in gravy made from today’s carcass stock and ? Bisto chicken gravy granules.

Even more ?, I had put the remains of the chicken in the (cold) oven the other night, away from any flies, since it was still too warm to put in the fridge. And then forgot it for 24 hours! Just as well the weather’s cooled off considerably.

The other remains are in the freezer in little packs labelled Chick Bits.
We’ll have the ‘false roast’ with new potatoes, peas and carrots.

Mushroom risotto with sweet corn cobettes and runner beans.
Using up things that I had almost forgotten.

Just finished Fish and chips delivered.

They were delicious

Sausage, mash, mixed greens, sugar roasted carrots and gravy.

The mash and greens are ready made from M&S, the gravy is homemade but frozen. I will roast the carrots and sausages myself. grin

A big bowl of veggie pasta.

Some gorgeous recipe ideas here what a treat! Roast chicken with herbs and garlicky roasties and veg. A homemade apple pie for dessert with custard or ice cream.

Please can I come to yours for tea? ?

Blossoming Mon 22-Aug-22 17:38:08

Corned beef hash with beans. It’s cooler here and been raining all afternoon so felt like something cooked.

HowVeryDareYou Mon 22-Aug-22 17:35:03

Poached eggs on toast - I cannot be bothered to cook a proper dinner

henetha Sun 21-Aug-22 10:32:27

It's cooler and my son is coming to dinner. So I'm doing a beef casserole with mashed potatoes and broccoli.
Strawberry trifle for pud.

Zanzibar prawn curry a la OH, following a visit to the cinema to see ‘Fisherman’s Friends: One and All’! Thoroughly enjoyed the curry and the film. Slow roasted lamb today. ?

Grantanow Sun 21-Aug-22 09:06:49

Jam sandwich. Just like the Queen as reported in the Wail.

Witzend Sun 21-Aug-22 08:40:50

Some of the SDM (School Dinner Mince) I batch cooked for the freezer the other day. My version is semi veggie though - red lentils and a lot of finely chopped root veg added. Believe it or not, dh loves it! Will have with new pots and whatever veg I’ve got.

Whitewavemark2 Sun 21-Aug-22 06:45:02

Aubergine parmigiana with salad

bridie54 Sat 20-Aug-22 22:54:19

Tonight was a burger roll. Mr B’s fancy.
Tomorrow is home made veg lasagne ( from the freezer). My choice as easy after a day in the garden if it’s dry.

An Asda take away box as we've not had a take away meal for ages.

Pizza. Being lazy.
