Dahl, rice and grilled baby peppers.

Vegetable lasagne. Decided to try to make the top look pretty yum, and loads left over for my lunches during the week.

Beefy soba broth with edamame, baby pak choi, mushroom and tofu puffs. Basically, a posh version of ramen.

Tasty, and enough left over for lunch

Mrs Fox

Chilli con carne, roasted sweet potato and mixed leaves.

StripedBoxers

Steak, baby potatoes, pepper sauce with whiskey and cream, and veg.

Bit of a funny combo today. I had a baked potato which waa stuffed with cheese, ham and scallions. I also had mash, cabbage and gravy with it. It was lovely but I'm pretty hungry now.

Just back from Germany this morning. Last night I had roulade; beef cut very thinly, then beaten paper thin, and rolled swiss roll style around a filling. In this case seasoned cabbage. Gorgeous.

Any idea where one can get beef for roulade here? Ideally in the SE?

Gloomtastic!

No pictures, but I barbecued one of Aldi's spatchcocked chickens they have on special at the moment for only €3, the Lemon and Pepper one. It was very nice, with a really pronounced lemony flavour. Unfortunately the weather didn't permit actually eating it outside though!

Had the garlic one this evening with crunchy potatoes, brocolli and sweetcorn. Really juicy chicken and great value.

The top looks very pretty and appetising!

Feeling under the weather so wanted some comfort type food. We have curried chicken and butternut squash risotto, which tasted so good. Served with sugar snaps and tender stem broccoli

Took inspiration from (stole) a lunch dish from Platform Pizza in Bray. Moroccan chicken burritos - harrissa chicken, rocket, couscous and garlic mayo. They use massive wraps, it was a bit harder with my little ones, but they were still nice!

Mrs Fox

Roast chicken in turmeric mix rub (got my paw on the wings first), slaw and mixed leaves.

How did you do the potatoes? Riced them straight on top?

I rice them with milk, butter and seasoning, then rice the lot again onto the pie.
A trick I picked up from someone here.

That is a genius idea! Must do that some time.

Chicken wrapped in smoked ham and a quinoa salad thing (quinoa, coriander, chili, spinach, lime, chicken-y ham juices from roasting, red salsa). Was much tastier than it looks.

Plate of antipasti. Meats: bresola, parma ham, loma, chorizo. Cheeses: Doux de Montaigne, Jarlsberg, Cornish Cruncher. Bowl of olives and artichokes. Walnuts.

Had it straight after work, still stuffed.

I made a greek pasta salad (I can't use the oven at the moment, it's too hot!) last night, it was lovely. My toddler and I had melon for afters, very refreshing. Unfortunately, someone rang me while I was eating the melon, and my son finished it before the call was over! He's a BIG fan of melon!

Kurumba

Cooking club kebabs again made with beef and pork mince. Delish!

Marinated chicken fillets with pepper/mushroom/onion/tomato goo and new potatoes.

Went to The Independant Pizza Company in Drumcondra for a take away but ended up staying.

Excellent spicy chicken wings - huge portion for under a tenner - for starters.

Chinese Duck Pizza - really simple hoisin sauce base, sliced duck with chopped cashews on top and a sprinkling of julienned spring onion. Very good.

Kids reckoned mine are still better.

Dinner tonight was roasted baby potatoes, roasted garlic chicken breasts and peas.

Tasty and filling.

Had a rump steak and pasta smothered in butter, garlic powder and aromat seasoning
yumm yumm
my poor tormented dog was drooling for some, and he got the fat of the steak and was delighted

Roasted chicken breasts wrapped in bacon with a delicious salad of quinoa, pomegranate seeds, dried cranberries (?) & scallions. (Credit for the salad goes to Olive Deli in Skerries.)

Chicken pie topped with sliced potatoes. The parents pronounced it 'fine', but I thought it was lovely.

Haha, I won't lie - my photographic skills are so bad I've been copying his style in an effort to do a better job
They're still not great, but I think I see a slight improvement..... :P
