What's for Dinner?

[Onion Budgie]

Tonight it's egg salad, with tofu and black beans, and some spicy baked potato wedges.

[shirley]

I have been sat here wondering what to have for tea tonight.  I have got all the ingredients for a chicken curry so think I will go with that and wont take too long when I get in to do.

Tomato and mozzarella pasta bake

Something extremely plain, like rice. We've both had some kind of gastro bug, so need something bland.

Awww, I hope you both feel better soon .

 

Last night for dinner we had what we call 'meal salad', which means we had lettuce with some other vegetables, a sauce / dressing, some cheese, an egg, etc.

Saturday is pizza night.  Cheese, tomato and mushroom for me.

[Lau_Lou]

Cottage pie tonight. 

[muggle not]

We went out for dinner tonight as it was a 'special" day for us. I had shrimp and grits. My wife had sea scallops with mash potatoes.

It's the end of the asparagus season over here, so we'll be having our last asparagus tart of the year, with new potatoes and salad.

I've just had sausages, mash and peas.

It almost sounds like you're in Finland, celebrating Midsummer   Grilled sausages for the win!

 

I had french fries and something called 'grill paws', which I don't know what it might be in English, as I'm not fully aware what it contains in Finnish, either

[bobblybear]

I've just topped my dinner off with Rum & Raisin ice cream for dessert, with strawberries on top. 

 

Frankie, "grill paws" sounds strange! Is it animal or vegetable?

Animal. I've googled, what it entails exactly, and it's seasoned ground pork and beef in a particular shape.

 

 

 

You put it in the oven or fry on a pan. A classic from when I was a kid. (Notice the word 'original' in the picture.... so much English we use in Finnish.) 

[bobblybear]

That looks really yummy! I've just googled images of it, and someone has wrapped them in bacon, which is even better.

They are really yummy, I must say! Although the bacon... Never heard or seen anyone do it. Blasphemy!!!

Yes I was imagining some weird things as well!

[Onion Budgie]

A spicy red lentil & tomato pasta dish, with steamed kale and broccoli.  It was delicious!  Will definitely be making again.

[bobblybear]

Tikka Masala ready meal. 

[chesilbeach]

We had deep fried stuffed courgette flowers as a starter, then a plum tomato baked pasta dish. 

[Nollaig]

Yesterday we had t-bone steak and potato gratin - it was delicious, but the steak was a bit gristly in places. (We've been trying different types of steak to find our favourite!)

 

This evening will be lasagne, and I think I might pick up foccacia or similar from Marks on the way home as a side.

[Talisman]

Yesterday we had jacket potatoes with cheese and a nice big salad. Today we are having brown rice with Quorn chunks and mixed veg in a sweet and sour sauce. 

[Lau_Lou]

That sounds lovely, Talisman

 

Had chicken polenta and roasted peppers and onions.

Followed by a homemade raspberry mousse.
