Dinner thrread

My goulash is bubbling away nicely ready for later and it smells yummy. It must smell good because even my 13 year old son said it smelt good ? Not having anything beginning with a "p" though, sorry about that ?

Cauliflower cheese with bacon.

Need to have something easy and comforting for when we get back from taking the cats to the vet. It's only the usual checkup and jabs, but they make such a fuss you'd think it was the end of the world!

My husband has text to say he's cooked a shepherds pie and the kids are drooling and can't wait until dinner time.

Lasagne. Haven't made it in years, but I'm trying to make last nights Bolognese sauce look a bit more appetising.

Credit crunch household management is going really well here ?

I'm having leftover nut roast from yesterday with some rice and peas - simple, tasty and no fuss.

Were having roast Lamb from next door? with all the trimmings. I've also made red pepper and lentil soup so might have that as a starter,

Mustard chicken stew with winter veg.

A real winter warmer as its freezing here!

mrsd how do you make your goulash? i made it years ago and it was awfull, cant even rember what i put in it now it was that bad. we are having roast sweet pots with, mozzarella, basil,cherry toms and chilli filling plus a nice rocket salad on the side yum!

Sausage and pasta bake with lots of different vegetables chucked in, green salad and homemade garlic ciabatta.

We were at Borough Market on Saturday morning and bought lots of interesting stuff.

Last night was Ostrich burgers and tonight I have sausages from the Ginger Pig to go with mash and beans.

Now just need to decide if we're having plain old cumberland or the lamb, mint & garlic ones.

We have kangaroo burgers in the freezer!

Really cheating here.

Have bought a ready cooked deli counter chicken at waitrose and am going to use it and homemade stock from earlier in the week to make Nigel Slater's lemony chicken noodle soup.?

I've had to improvise as we don't have any peppers and there are various ways to do it but I brown some diced steak in butter, chuck in a sliced onion and my improvised bits of celery and green beans, stir them round until the veggies have gone soft, add some tomato puree, about 250ml of beef stock and 3 tsp of paprika, salt and pepper and leave it to bubble. I've also added two squares of Green & Blacks dark cooking chocolate for the first time this time so I'm not sure how this one will turn out ?

I have left over roast chicken, a bit of chorizo, red pepper - something to do with that i think - maybe risottoish thing

Roast chicken, mash, sweetcorn and some lovely gravy.

Ooh sounds good i may try that next week!!!thanks

Sausages, mash, broccolli, carrots and cabbage and onion gravy (it's going to smell grim in this house later)

Left over guinea fowl. roast pots, veg

My plan is to incorporate the leftover braised red cabbage and apple into a bubble and squeak and have it with fried eggs but i doubt Dr L will go for that, so i expect we'll be going shopping later ?

Chorizo and canellini bean casserole left over from last night's dinner, am hoping it'll be even tastier tonight?

I made two batches of soup last night, a sweet potato and an onion soup, so we're going to have some of that tonight with a garlic tear and share.

I had hm leak and potato soup with cheese on toast.

IT was lovely, but v v v filling. I'm stuffed.

MrH has text to say hes going to buy a pie he saw in an M&S ad. make of that what you will...

Fish finger sandwich! x

I've just had some Bacon Wheat Crunchies as I'm still at work. Will probably be cereal or a stir fry when (if) I get home.

Leek, fennel and double cheese quiche made with a pesto bread crust, with roast parsnips

Mr c had my tea on the table when i got home from work. fish fingers, potato waffles and baked beans ?

Prawn curry at our house because I'm full of cold and feeling lousy so hope the spices help ?

Risotto carbonara (with some thrown in veg, so not the most authentic)

We had Nigella's meatballs with garlic bread and it was delicious!

What did Nigella eat?
