What is for dinner today MK II

Tonight, fritatta with potatoes, onions, peppers and mushrooms
with some gruyere on top and grilled. With salad - despite the cold.

What was wrong with the broccoli, kitty?

It was was tenderstem - blanched then cooked in the oven in the same tray as the chicken. It was very chewy.

I will do the chicken again and cook the veg separately.

I've just got a new Ninja and am trying out the various functions, today is my second attempt with "Steam/airfry". We're having chicken thighs with braised sliced onions and red pepper, served with soft corn tortillas and guacamole. I'm using chipotle chilli powder and cumin, with Mexican oregano in the steaming water. Sadly I've never managed to make a decent tortilla so these will be good bought ones made by Cool Chile.

Comfort food tonight - sausage and mash with ? (not sure yet).

Last night I made a quite mild prawn and sweet potato curry. We had it with naan bread (bought, just needed 3 minutes in the oven).

Tonight breaded fillets of sole, potatoes dauphinoise and peas.

Turkey heated through with gravy, leftover from Sunday, new potatoes, sprouts, swede, cailiflower and kale.

Roast beef, roast and mashed potatoes, carrots, broccoli, peas, parsnips, green beans, stuffing and Yorkshire pudding. Husband's cooking.

Well, we had a chicken and marmalade recipe out of the waitrose magazine. It was really nice but the 🥦 cooked with it wasn't,'t.

Reading this thread has just confirmed for me that I have no cooking skills whatsoever 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️…🙃

It was cauliflower and broccoli cheese, with jacket potatoes.

That looks really tasty, FrenchgalinSpain

I've seen a picture of that on Amazon!

I think you can buy the lovely picture as an embroidery kit too.

@FrenchGalinSpain - with respect, how does posting stock images of shops/restaurants/dishes answer the question of the thread title which is “What are you having for dinner ” ?

Almette Pasta but couldnt get Almette so used a mixture of garlic and herb cream cheese and creme fraiche instead for the sauce. Added loads of extra chopped vegs as well

Broccoli carrot corn chowder, bread/hummus, fruit salad. No pud, still 1 lb to lose.
