 Topic: Whats for tea?

Yes another thread. Give me inspiration- what are you having for dinner tonight??
We desperately need to go to the butcher as we only have a little bit of mince, a little bit of chicken and a little bit of beef stirfry.
Was thinking chicken in rice risotto, or a satay chicken stir fry.. Or something...? I dunno.
Can't be bothered going to the supermarket but if someone inspires me enough I might...

Not much inspiration from me, but I think we will be having a bits and pieces dinner as it is supermarket day tomorrow. DP is finishing off some venison and I will be finishing off some vege sausages and homemade minestrone soup. And I guess will have to cook up some veges to go with the meat..
Last night we had vege lasagna.

We're having chicken noodle soup in the crockpot to finish off the chicken carcass from the roast chicken the other night.
Not very inspired.

Not a lot as I forgot to take any meat out of the freezer - be chop chop chicken and mushroom pie at this rate. If I can disguise it in pastry I'm sure DH will go for it.

We are having chicken parmigiana with potatoes and rocket salad.
Satay chicken stirfry sounds yummy, or you could do a chicken salad if you have salad stuff? Or with your stirfry beef try a black pepper beef stirfry, I add a pack of udon noodles (but any noodles would do) carrots, red pepper, Kai lan or bok choy and baby corn and make 200gm beef feed 3 adults :)

We are having satay beef with added onion, carrots, courgettes and maybe some peas and basmati rice. Will probably make garlic bread to go with it for DH.
We have hardly anything left to eat in our house and I hate going grocery shopping its SO expensive!

I have done a beef stew to use up vegs & 1 piece of steak in the slow cooker & will do rice & that is for the kids.
I am doing narchos for DH & me later as the kids don't like them (well 2 out of 3) & there is not enough stew for all.

Sounds like satay chicken stir fry is winning. DH will think I'm wonderful (he LOVES satay haha).
No-one inspired me enough to go to the supermarket.. Really need to go, I hate it though! It always costs soo much!
Probably a good thing, as we got married 3 months ago and I'm only doing thank you cards today- so if someone had inspired me it would have been another way of procrastination..

What, you're doing thank-you cards already? I think I made six months 
It's uninspiring, but we came back from our trip south with a carload of pumpkins from DH's Aunty and Uncle. So I'm constructing a random lasagne-type dish with mince, roasted pumpkin cubes, spinach and a yummy cheesy sauce. Who knows what it will end up tasting like!
