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.

Cooked black beans in a packet, topped with sliced shallots, sliced tomatoes, white wine, basil - baked. Over rice. Asparagus. Bread, fruit. Chocolate cake.

Chicken chasseur with green beans and cornichons. Enough left over for the freezer.

A good old fashioned meat pudding (been in the slow cooker since 12) and purple sprouting broccoli. Not exactly healthy or slimming!

Tonight's dinner will be salmon (with chillies and ginger), with asparagus, mangetout, baby corn and courgette

We're cooking Kofta in tasty tomato gravy, rice, fruit salad, bread. Maybe apple galette - matters who comes round for dinner. smile

Moules a la Portugaise (a la OH!) 😋

Steak with ??? to be decided

Peppercorn sauce sounds good, MiniMoon

Later, stir-fry chicken and veg, in Chow Mein sauce

Swiss cheese bake and gherkins.

Today at DH's request, we had sirloin steak with creamy mash and peas. I also made a peppercorn sauce to go with it. I didn't make a pudding g as we had one yesterday.

Smoked tofu, mash, corn on the cob and cabbage! Vegan coffee cake with frozen berries and coconut cream.

Lovely meal at the pub.
Confit duck with parsnip purée, roast carrots, green beans and dauphinois potatoes, followed by thyme flavoured panne cotta with honeycomb and raspberry sorbet.
All absolutely delicious.
It would have been rude not to have a bottle of Shiraz to go with it so we did.

Fried Fish (Indian style) and stir fried vegetables with Thai sauce

kittylester Fri 14-Apr-23 19:31:27

Fillet steaks with Stilton sauce and Maman potatoes.

Jaxjacky Fri 14-Apr-23 19:28:44

Chicken thighs with spinach, crème fraîche and Parmesan, Cypriot potatoes, carrots and cauliflower.

Dinner at the pub - Jamaican chicken stew with flatbread

A meal deal from Waitrose - pizzas, garlic mayonnaise and doughballs - as we’ve been out all day, and have teenage GCs arriving any minute. Strawberry cheesecake for pud.
A large glass of Sauvignon just been poured smile

BlueSapphire Fri 14-Apr-23 18:31:20

A home-made chicken curry from the freezer, basmati rice and a poppadum. Along with a nice glass of South African sauvignon blanc

Forsythia Fri 14-Apr-23 18:16:00

A nice glass of Merlot!

Callistemon21 Fri 14-Apr-23 18:13:08

A large Sauvignon Blanc!

Callistemon21 Fri 14-Apr-23 18:11:38

Charlie Bigham's fish pie with vegetables.
Lazy? No, I've been busy 🙂

Whitewavemark2 Fri 14-Apr-23 17:29:26

Moroccan vegetables and rice with a rather large Pinot☺️, rhubarb and custard.

Feeling quite mellow

Forsythia Fri 14-Apr-23 17:25:55

A homemade veggie chilli & rice, yoghurt and fruit afterwards.

Kim19 Fri 14-Apr-23 17:22:50

I've just cooked and scoffed chicken breast fillets, saute potatoes and betroot. Scrumptimonious!
