What's For Dinner Today ???

Magpie.

I've got some carrot and coriander soup that I made last night for lunch today.

I can believe some people are lucky enough to get free tea and coffee at work!!

I have a little box with left over shepherds pie and a yoghurt with me today.
I love my 'free' lunches- at one time I use to always put leftovers in the fridge full of good intentions and then scrape them in the bin a few days later:rolleyes:
It's a slow process but I seem to be learning;)

P.S. Whats thjs hummous people keep talking about?

Hummous is lovely, tasty and filling! (also Hummus, houmous, hummos)
Its a thick dip made from chickpea, sesame seeds, garlic and other stuff. I buy mine (find it in the supermarket fridge next to salsa and guacamole) but I'm sure better MSE's than me make theirs from scratch. You can buy lots of tasty flavoured ones to - My favourite is pesto. I spread it on crackers or dip carrot sticks into it. Ymmm

....if you see some and think it resembles sick I can assure you it tastes better than it looks.

Blue cheese, pear and walnut salad for me today, using up the rest of the spinach that was bought for a lasagne earlier in the week. The pear has finally softened after a week of rock hardness - just hope I don't miss that micro second of perfect ripeness of the pear!

Well Due to the starvation yesterday (had to eat two bags of crisps in the end but still NSD!) I've brought 2 chicken rolls, flapjack AND a hot cross bun (from freezer) have crisps and biscuits at work.. so another NSD hopefully!!
I'm staying at OH tonight, his Dad puts on acoustic gigs so having to go one straight from work. Hoping his Mom sends some dinner so it's a NSD today as well

Private and Confidential - don't throw your bananas away! Make these:

And add a mashed up banana to the mix - keeps them much more moist and you're not wasting them. Then you can bring flapjack to work as a treat. Add chopped nuts, raisins, dried fruit, anything you've got

EDIT - oh and for my lunch, I have HM stew with HM flapjack (yes, the above one!) and my free Graze box fruit with an Activia 8 for £1.57 yoghurt. Going to the cinema (free tickets from PT job) after work so have also brought in a slice of Quorn pie (OOD but should be fine), mashed potato and baked beans.

Lunch is

left-over beans with some toasted HM bread for me, porridge for dd (she asked for it lol) and 1/2 banana and 1/2 banana and hm bread ham sandwich fingers for ds. DS 1 has his cheapo lunch box with him today with left-over pasta bake, yog, tin pineapple and a tesco value cake thing as i haven't made any today.

Dinner is:

Chicken pie. Pastry is made and in fridge 'resting' and the pie filling is in the cooker (tin mush soup with mushs from freezer, 3 chicken brsts chopped up and some flour) and will put it together about 3 and in oven for hr so mum can dish it up with veg and packet mash while i'm at work (4-6) and mine will be in fridge ready for OH and i when i get home about 6.30/7

mmmmmmmmmmmmm a lovely day today - and my 1st attempt at chicken pie so will let ya know

Well an nsd for me today - I got taken out to lunch in exchange for an interview for a newsletter

Let us know how you get on! I added chopped apple to mine this week and they're gorgeous.

Yep, 1977 - that's funny, you're the second person in two days to say that to me!

Oh and becky_rtw - that was my idea
