Re: What's for dinner?
Egg and chips (my mother makes the best chips in the whole world!) and strawberries and custard - unusual but very pleasant.
My mother bought the strawberries for my birthday dinner but we didn't eat them. Unfortunately we supped all the cream in coffee.

Re: What's for dinner?
Last night I followed a french recipe for potimarron quiche. Potimarron is a type of pumpkin which is less sweet and has a chestnutty flavour.
It was OOOOOOKKKKKKKKK ish. Wouldn't make it again though. Now I've got half of it left. Hmmm.

Re: What's for dinner?
Fantastic thread that I look forward to looking through when I'm not just about to dash off on the school-bloody-run.
Tonight the flesh-eaters are having sea bass fillets pan fried in egg & breadcrumbs and the veggies are having sausages oven cooked in baked beans and passata. With that we're all having new potatoes and peas & sweetcorn.
Tomorrow we're having chicken thighs/Quorn fillets in peppers, with rice and veg, and I'll do double to stick a load in the freezer.

Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Re: What's for dinner?
Tonight I am going for Spag Bal..... again... It has been simmering on the stove all day.
E has been fussy the last few weeks so I am going to stick to her favourites for 3 or 4 nights a week and slowly re-introduce the other stuff.
We were going to have a chicken (haven't had one in 6 months *salavate, salavate*) but the inlaws couldn't come over and it doesn't seem worth it for just the 2 of us

Check the chicken soup thread - I just posted there -but I am too lazy to do it again!

Re: What's for dinner?
We bought a belly pork joint to make bacon with, but didn't get round to it. So last night we had sunday lunch - roast pork and all the trimmings - a real treat for a thursday night.
Tonight I fancy rice so I'm not sure what I'll do, probably a risotto. It's very wet and windy up here today so I want something warm and gooey!.

Re: What's for dinner?
Last night we had Greyes grannys cheese pudding - you must all try it - it's fantastic and really easy to make - with roasted veg. We are really lucky - one of the teachers is the wife of a veg farmer so every week we order fresh from the farm veg. Tonight is mince with leeks and dumplings, carrots, turnip, curly kale and broccoli - all from the farm. Yummy!

Roast chicken tonight cooked by my OH followed by pumpkin pie cooked by me. All eaten in front of Strictly Come Dancing and the X Factor! I love Saturdays!
