What's for tea at your house tonight?

Leftover veggie pizza, bread sticks, pasta and hot wings from Pizza Hut last night. Went out spur of the moment with a friend and ordered a feast.

Keralan egg curry.

Sea bass, seven grain pilaf, and homegrown corn on the cob and kale

Gorged myself silly on venison sausages, mashed turnip, caramelised onion gravy, roasted beetroot, and savoy cabbage - all homegrown veg which was too good to stop eating.... 

Our standard pork roast that I make about every other week  , baked potatoes (I didn't think DH liked them, but he informed me the other week that he does), and green bean casserole (it's not just for Thanksgiving)!

Jambalaya. I cheated this time and used a box mix, but added meat and peppers. It isn't quite as good as homemade, but worked for something quick.

I made a huge vat of lentil veg soup last night and baked sourdough bread (and had an interview that went well!  A productive and tasty day!  ).

Leftovers today!  nom nom nom
(second interview tomorrow!)

 

Last night was garlic roast pork loin and ratatouille - which was gorgeous - made from the last of my summer glut of homegrown courgettes and patty pan squashes- plus homegrown Aubergine- Hungarian red sweet peppers, basil and tomatoes. I have never been a fan of aubergines, but homegrown is a whole different level for me- such flavour!


Tonight is a Chinese prawn curry, rice, and tons of allotment veg again- cauliflowers, Savoy cabbage, onions, Aubergine, chillies, pak choi, mustard greens, and chard

Leftover Chilean aubergine and chick pea stew from the freezer.  I needed to make it stretch so I added sweet red and yellow peppers and some veggie sausages.  Hubby added chicken to his.

Beef and mushrooms sauted in olive oil, butter, thyme and garlic, over a bed of Basmati rice.

Made a gorgeous spaghetti aglio e olio last night, but I bulked it out with adding homegrown onions, romenesco cauliflower and savoy cabbage. I have leftovers for lunch  , can't wait!

American Chop Suey  Chicklet has been asking for it and since I'm trying to use up all the stuff in the freezer and cabinets I figured why not!

Hubby's birthday meal in tonight! (We had a fancy meal out on Saturday, special event at a local restaurant, so staying in this evening.)

(Tortilla) Chips and salsa. Pork carnitas - I made in the slow cooker two days ago so the flavours had time to develop. Frijoles borrachos - made in the slow cooker yesterday, for the same reason. Those two things (pork & frijoles) to have with flour tortillas, cheese, lettuce, sour cream, etc. Beer & cider. Plus we still have a couple of his birthday cupcakes (first batch) left, that I made last weekend. I'm making him some more cupcakes in the next day or so. 

Veggie burgers. We seem to have a new obsession with them.
