I think tonight is tuna melts.
When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life. ~ John Lennon

Oh man - I had zero inspiration for cooking tonight.  None.  It's like everything that sounded good - we've already cooked in the past week or so, so nothing new to be done.  I thought about Moroccan takeaway, because there's a new one around we talked about trying, but DH just made Moroccan food on Saturday.  Then I thought about pasta, but I sent DH to work with a lunch of leftover pasta from last Friday.  We've had Mexican food (with beef), we've had pork, we've had chicken, we've had sausages...blah blah blah.

When he got home (after lurking here earlier trying to sniff out what was for tea), he said pasta would be okay.  So I made mac & cheese with tuna, leeks & peas.  It's in the oven now.

Apparently, I should cook with a grumpy, half-ar*ed attitude more often, because that's the best mac & cheese I've ever made!  :o

Last night I used up the homemade chicken stock by cooking brown basmati rice in it, then added in sauteed onions, the leftover roast chicken pieces, and petis pois. YUM.

Tonight it's going to be fish & chips - lightly dusted river cobbler (yum yum yum), homemade oven chips, and probably some steamed broccoli.

Some kind of soup with swede in it.  We still have half of one from Burns night that needs using up.
