What are you making for dinner?

I'm down to the last couple of handfuls of chicken stripped from the Sunday roast. Tonight I am turning it into spicy chicken fajitas, and I am really hoping I can stretch it enough to make a Chinese chicken and noodle stir fry for tomorrow as well. There won't be very much chicken left for that, but I do have half a pack of prawns in the freezer which I could add.

We had pasta and pesto last night which frankly I didn't really enjoy.  It was a good quality jar but I think I'd been in a bit of a mood all day which maybe meant that almost anything might have been meh.  The OH really enjoyed it and went out and bought more today.  Sigh.

Tonight it's a couple of pukka pies - I've got a steak and ale and he's got the snake and pygmy.  If I can be asked I'll add a handful of rocket and a tomato to my plate.  

Got a 1 rib rib roast from the market meat guy today.  Just the right size to bbq and split for a monster dinner.  I've been having carnivorous cravings so this will be nice.  Also a fat partridge & some belly pork.  Hoping the bird will be cooked steamed on top of cabbage.....

Something spicy in my Thermomix!

@sarahmayers I’m making our curry in the Thermomix too 👍

Used up the last of the salmon tonight, chopped up with mayo on a jacket potato. Also had pickled radishes with it.

Wanted to use up some lemon curd so made this for pudding:

LO retro rice with some frozen mixed veg chucked in and a breaded chicken burger scoffed before gym class tonight.

Lush!  (except for the wrapping...I just sling things into gift bags and recycled perfume or tea cup boxes!)

That sounds like an idyllic evening, IM! I’m going to get the last of the Christmas cards written tonight so that I can get them in the post tomorrow morning (why oh why do I always leave it so late??)

Tonight is chicken + prawn + peppers + onions + mushrooms + pak choi + tenderstem broccoli + noodles = STIR FRY!!!

We had a takeaway Indian meal last night. It was nice enough but expensive for 3 of us.

Tonight we had airfry chips, (Harry Ramsden) and egg and beans.
