What's for tea at your house tonight?

Don't know, but getting hungry already!  We've got loads in the freezer, I didn't think it would last this long, but hubby really helped out with cooking over the past few weeks that I've been working so much.

last night we had pad thai and a coconut and lime Thai-style soup (both with shrimp)

tonight it's sloppy joes

I messed up my crockpot soup that we were supposed to have for lunch so I think we're extra hungry.  Witht hat in mind, I think it's either going to be chicken curry or chicken pot pie.  More likely the pot pie because I'm in that sort of mood. 

I talked J into cooking last night- he made his spicy pasta


Tonight I'm making chili -perfect for a cold night!!!

Hubs is having sausages (real, not veggie) and mash and I'm having adzuki bean and butternut squash soup from the freezer.

Roast beef, gravy, roasted potatoes, roasted carrots, roasted parsnips, winter greens and a bottle of nice Chianti.

Baked Maryland crab cakes (frozen at Costco and absofreakinglutely delicious), salsify and carrots.

Spinach salad with grilled chicken from work

We have no cooktop or oven. Fortunately, my husband remembered that we have an electric steamer. So we're having steamed broccoli, steamed new potatoes, and steamed lemon and dill salmon. If anyone has good steamer recipes, I'd love to hear them!!

Have fun steaming Bmore! Do you have a microwave?

Tonight we're having a pasta bake - sort of lasagne without the lasagne noodles.

Have fun steaming Bmore! Do you have a microwave?

We have one, but it hasn't worked since we moved here. 

I love it when good things come together!

18:05 , walk in the door, no clue what I'm going to make, except that I pulled some pork strips out of the freezer before work

18:10, pull out some frozen mashed potatoes leftover from Thanksgiving and defrost

18:15 cut up a turnip that's slightly mushy, but still workable

18:19, do the same with a parsnip, boil together

18:20 cook pork strips

18:21, add frozen peas and corn to pork, some pork oxo, water, cornflour, thicken and season

18:35, mash turnip/parsnip, add mashed potatoes, make clapshot

18:43, top pork gravy mixture with some leftover crispy fried onions from Thanksgiving

18:45, top that with clapshot, bake until hot, browned and bubbly

19:10, plate, open a jar of cranberry sauce, add to side

19:33, stuffed and happy 

That was a really yummy pie!!!

Had lamb tonight with chips and peas. Nice, but not as nice as the homemade pasties we had the other night.

Another Christmas 'do tonight!!!!

It's just me tonight so I'm having a little vegetarian pie with some broccoli and cheddar cheese on the side.
