hmm for me i am cooking satay chicken (diced up) on rice...but i add tinned tomatoes to make a nicer fuller satay sauce...
the other nice i did a savoury mince with mushrooms then mixed it into a macoroni pasta with sauce and baked it with cheese on top...i like to do big one pot type meals...
DHs fave is my butter chicken on rice...

i'm going the easy way and making a baked eggy cheesy thing with lots of zucchini, onion and capsicum in it. mikey loves it and i really can't be bothered making something too involved.
bombshell, that satay chicken sounds so good. and can i get the recipe for that mince pasta thing? it sounds like something mikey would love.

we're having chicken drumsticks (Taine is teething and gnaws on bones), spanish tortilla (like a potato pancake thing), and some brocolli and cheese sauce, - am tossing up doing roast nectarines with creme anglaise (really just fancy custard...i like to sound posh!)

I had a terribly uninventive dinner tonight... panfried pork chops with kumara mash and carrots and beans! It was still good tho... I've not had kumara mash for ages. Mmmmm.
Tomorrow night I am going to slow cook some lamb shanks with red wine, orange and rosemary. My mum did it when I was home last week and yuuuuuuuuuuuummy. I LOVE lamb shanks.

Corn fritters with salad - basically lettuce underneath, corn fritters on top, a dollop of sour cream on each fritter (four medium sized ones to a plate), then tomato and cucumber slices layered on top, a bit of sweet chilli sauce... and a dash of salt and pepper.

haha I'd LOVE to! I hate cooking on our measly flatting budget... although we do eat better than most other student flats
Mum keeps buying us foodie mags - my sis and I sit there drooling over the food... it's great inspiration!

We had boring old fish fillets with oven chips and salad. Sending Willie off to the butcher and vege shop tomorrow since the cupboards are bare after we've been away, so hopefully tomorrow will be more inspired...
Drooling over Jax's corn fritters, and Bombshells chicken, and heck, just about everyone elses dinner!
