It’s just me here and I’m the cook too: I mean a night off when I don’t fix a proper, well-balanced meal, but just something quick like a sandwich, etc. When my Dad was alive we always ate out one night a week as a break for me having to cook dinner after a day’s work.
Know what you mean dandysmom-usually I cook a well-balanced meal for myself but when it gets to the end of the week I’ve run out of fresh food like vegs.etc and out of ideas, so I tend to just throw something together. Look forward to Fridays when its definitely my night off. I suppose the benefit of cooking for yourself is you can please yourself what you have
Oh I do agree! That gives me an idea for a thread…
What’s on the menu tonight?
We’re having sausage and mushroom casserole
Linguini with pesto, salad and a ciabatta roll.
Roast chicken, baby potatoes and peas followed by apple pie with custard-made a real pig of myself tonight
Today for lunch, . . 2 Scotch mince pies, made in our local bakery of course.
A very particular delicacy is the Scotch mince pie.
OK at a rugby match, with a good dollop of brown sauce, difficult for me to fancy at other times.
But I hope you enjoy yours Nero
Wednesday’s always pizza, so will do lunch: small bowl of miso soup, a few grapes and a peach, Port Salut cheese and a chocolate nutritional drink.
Whatever OH puts in front of me
Dinner I had tuna and sweetcorn sandwiches then for tea I had sausage with onion gravy, mash and beans-very nice
Time to wake this thread again?
Last night we went to the pub and had steak & chips and tonight we are having one of my favourites - kedgeree. Hooray for the Raj!
Just had a bowl of home made lentil soup, . . my wife does make good soup, . . it’s an art form with her.
The golden wonders are about ready to harvest, we get them from a local farm, I love the chips they make, I’ve not had a decent chip for months they’re the best potato for chipping without a doubt.
Always make pizza on Wednesdays! Tossed salad too.
Freezer suprise!
I think it’s a beef (or maybe venison) casserole. I’m on my own (again) have some left over mashed potato in the fridge, so I’ve had a delve through the freezer.
So, maybe lamb tagine & mashed potato, maybe goulash and mashed potato - as long as it’s not Pedigree Chum & mash I don’t really mind
I think I’ll do us a cottage pie, I’ve got some beef (free ranged), mushrooms, onions and potatoes. Yum yum, our favourite.
Fish supper anyone.
Linguine with pesto, tossed salad, roll.
Eileen you always appear to eat well.you put me to shame, with my fish and chips.
Change of mind, … I got a spicy haggis.
