Fresh Hake supper, splashin' the cash tonight.

French Toast

Happened to be in Lidl earlier and saw a coffee machine near the checkouts. €1 for a really decent latte, was chuffed.

Stir fried prawns with fresh garlic and ginger, then added some frozen Asian veg, then the spring onion and oyster sauce and finally some soft noodles added to the wok for the last couple of minutes. Nuked the egg fried rice and the crackers were out of a bag.

It went down well, mouth almighty teenage son was extremely impressed.

Fahitas with a Carlsberg to ease the chili tingles.

Last night I tried the salt and chili rack of ribs from Aldi. What was I thinking? They were total crap from flavour to meat content. I broke my golden rule. Usually I buy the ribs from my butcher and look after the marinade myself. Alternatively Dunnes or Supervalu do a branded ready to go rack that's good. Back to basics tonight and an all home cooked feast for the crew.

Par boned chicken breast with roasties and sweetcorn for Mrs/Ms G and coming up later after a few beers, a striploin and some extras for me. As I'm the only one in the house who likes steak, its affordable. If the rest liked it, I'd have to rethink it.:D

SortingYouOut

Made a club sandwich (bacon, grilled chicken, tomatoes, rocket, fried egg), broccoli and some air fried sweet potato fries.

Just had an Egghead at coffeehouse.

I admire your restraint. They're lovely dipped in tea.

Surreptitious

i don't know what to eat lately?

It's chicken fried off in a pan, then red peppers, onions, garlic and ginger fried off too. Back in to a big pot, add whatever herbs and spices you fancy, a carton of passata, squeeze of tomato puree, a stock pot or cube. Pot of pasta and that's my go to dinner.

Too hot for cooking so stretch or starve for the main course and sweet toffee roulade for dessert.

Certainly not hot here. Pan fried chicken fillet, sauteed onions, mushrooms and mixed peppers. A tonne of herb potato cubes with a drizzle of pepper sauce all over. Beers!

igCorcaigh

Ya know those little pots of chicken and stuffing you can get from the supermarkets?

Yeah, really addicted to those, with red pepper, rocket and mayo in pita bread.

igCorcaigh

... With salads and flatbread etc.

That is basically my go-to dinner, except it could be pasta for Italian, rice for Indian/Chinese. But chicken, onion, etc can be the base for everything

Parsley. Only the supermarket stuff though. Farmers market is the place to buy the best herbs.

I realised what happened. I'm on a new drug and I can't eat with it. I try to eat and I gag at the food. I will have to get it sorted. Have to fcking eat like.

Grandeeod

So I've enjoyed a few beers outdoors and now I'm settling into a movie with a fillet steak, stir fried veg, chips and a splash of pepper sauce. Basic and nice.:D A bottle of Lucozade zero for the wash down. It doesn't get much better than this.:D

Steak burger in a brioche roll with goat's cheese and onion marmalade. Nom.

Breakfast was a raspberry muffin and OJ outdoors in the sun. Had a nice enough lunch of spicy chicken tenders, chunky chips and BBQ sauce. I brought that outdoors too.

branie2

barbecue earlier on

I got fresh fruit scones for lunch. I prefer the ones in Dunnes, they are really good. Mug of Barry's now.

Fathom

Walk-a-bout. Discovered new coffeehouse. Sip. Not bad. But pricey.

IrishLad90

Cycle and a trek home in the sun followed by a lasagne and bit of salad and sipped a cider

igCorcaigh

Sausages from Tesco, that are flavoured with paprika and honey, they are lovely.
With couscous, that I have added some of the delicious Belazu chermoula paste to.
Onions and fresh parsley.

Deja Boo

Past and cheese - nawt of any nutritional value.

A bag of crisps. Anyone want cooking lessons? 20 quid a session.:D Or I pay you to cook for me, but it better be decent fare.:D

That would be well worth lessons.

Gonna try an Angus 8 oz steak burger that I got in Aldi today. Not normally a fan of meat products from Aldi/Lidl, but Mrs G had hers in a brioche bun and said it was great. I'm having mine later bare back on a plate with onions/mushrooms, steakhouse fries and some pepper sauce.
