What's for dinner tonight?

[debih]

We haven't had summer in winter chicken for ages.

We had BBQ chicken thighs and drums with new potatoes and salad.

Chicken kievs, with a couple of those little peppers roasted in the same tray, with a tiny bit of pesto in and quartered baby tomatoes. Courgette also in the same tray, and later a few baby tomatoes.
Served on brown rice with spinach wilted in - yum yum

Mmmm I love brown rice and spinach and peppers and courgettes and tomatoes.....godammit I love VEG!

[Diflower]

Thankfully we both do - if I hadn't been making it simple we'd have had green beans as well
But we do also love meat, just not in excess

Well, we were supposed to be having spag bol, Michael's favourite as he was here - but "someone" took what he thought was bol sauce out of the freezer and it turned out to be chilli Michael doesn't like chilli but I served it with pasta anyway (which was strange ) and told him it was a different recipe, removed kidney beans but he is too clever and only tried a little bit before saying "well I am still a little bit sick Granny". In fairness he is not totally back to eating normally.

I use this really advanced new technology Osc and put a little bit of paper in the bag saying what's in it

We were going to have steak with a packet pasta, but I had no packet pasta, so we ended up with tuna pasta bake.
So tonight's dinner is something with steak, that I can whip up in next to no time as I will probably pick hubby up from work again as he's still sick, and it means we can all sit down to dinner earlier if I do.

This made me smile Osc and reminded me of Conor (who was always too smart for his own good!)

I think he was about 7 or 8 and he'd asked for spag bol - but somehow naughty mummy forgot and made a chilli instead.

After a look, a sniff and finally a taste he pipes up with: "mummy, I think this spag bol took a wrong turning left of Mexico!!"

I laughed out loud.
