I've just cooked cheesy-breadcrumbed Basa, with sweet potatoes and oven-roasted Mediterranean vegetables. (It's a Gousto recipe I had ages ago) Gorgeous.

A Hungarian veal stew Borjuporkolt I wanted a good recipe to do the meat justice extra garlic makes it nice and rich.

Chicken escalope coated in panko & parmesan, cooked with butter & olive oil, capers and lemon juice, with salad.

M&S Sweet Chilli noodles with stir fry veg and beef strips

Mollygo Mon 17-Apr-23 16:54:57

Roast pork and a multitude of veg.
Pastel de nata for dessert if they turn out OK. I watched a demonstration that made it look so easy.

Cold Coca Cola Gammon, fried potatoes and onions with coleslaw. Easy night!

Indian restaurant later, so I'll probably have a fish curry

Linda McCartney mozzarella burger on a brioche bun with salad. I am not veggy, but these are yummy.

On a whim, I picked fish and chips up on my way back from the hairdressers. I can’t remember the last time I ate them and they were delicious! I had to convince myself afterwards that it doesn’t hurt once in a while!

It doesn't once in a while, GD, especially if you enjoyed it.

I have tried a new chilli con carne recipe (a Nadya Hussein one) which seems very dry and I've just tasted it - it's very hot so I've just added another tin of tomatoes and am wondering whether to sent dh out for more sour cream.

Quinoa/red bean/pea fritters with wonderful sweet red chilli sauce, roasties, salad, bread. Pear galette.

Oh I was going to have chilli, but got lazy and have had a chicken salad instead. Will have to make the chilli tomorrow, as I’ve defrosted the meat now.

SachaMac Tue 18-Apr-23 19:16:01

Homemade Lasagne, salad and slimming world chips

kittylester Tue 18-Apr-23 20:27:34

Just come back to say our chilli was delicious despite my reservations.

I’ll look at that recipe for tomorrow.

Just fruit and yogurt tonight. Had a pub lunch of salad and quiche

Callistemon21 Tue 18-Apr-23 23:00:03

No recipe, just throw it all in this evening!
We had quite a lot of leftover roast chicken so fried an onion, garlic, muchrooms, put in the chicken with stock and seasonings and frozen peas, some paprika then added Greek yogurt at the end. Served with rice.
As a way of using leftover chicken it was very good.

Callistemon21 Tue 18-Apr-23 23:00:42

The chicken was diced btw!

HowVeryDareYou2 Wed 19-Apr-23 18:20:16

Baked cod, with oven-cooked tomatoes, onions, peppers and courgette

GrannyGravy13 Wed 19-Apr-23 19:03:07

Aubergine, Tomato & Mozzarella Bake (basically my version of parmigiana) with Garlic Bread along with a glass of chilled Sauvignon Blanc.

DH is out, my dinner would be his worst nightmare 🤣🤣🤣

SachaMac Wed 19-Apr-23 19:12:14

A nice piece of Haddock, parsley sauce, cauliflower, peas and mash.

Redhead56 Wed 19-Apr-23 20:30:58

I made refried beans and sautéed vegetables for tacos.

Norah Wed 19-Apr-23 20:37:51

Asparagus, mushroom risotto. Salad, bread, hummous. Affogato.

A lamb steak with roast potatoes and spinach.

Bit knackered after work today so fish fingers&chips with minty peas and a banana and yogurt after that and a coffee.

MiniMoon Wed 19-Apr-23 22:41:54

Was going to make spag bol with my minced beef, but I found a cauliflower that needed using up. I ended up making savoury mince, potatoes and cauliflower cheese.
