What's For Dinner?

@walkonby same here. I’m from a European family so it was just meat and potatoes with some kind of veg but nothing spicy but Dh was the opposite. Even though he is originally from a European family his dads new wife is from Uganda and so it was all spices all the time. I actually had to learn how to make her butter chicken and a few other individual dishes before I could marry him :tongue:(kidding). Now that we are plant based its literally the easiest cuisine to make. Lots of veg meals that we just sub the cream for coconut milk. Easy, inexpensive and oh soooooooo good!

I snagged 3 roasts at $3.99/lb, each one was approximately $30 each. I am cooking up one of these today and will make mashed potatoes, gravy, asparagus and maybe some roasted carrots.

This roast is quite big, we will not eat it all but we will put it in the fridge for sandwiches this week and whatever we do not eat will be frozen to be used in Shephard's Pie at a later date.

Discovered 3 x 400 gram bars of Mozzarella way in the back of the fridge " hiding " BB date of April 19th. Since I'm not eating that type of cheese atm, I asked DH if he minded me making up a very large lasagna to at least use up one block. Lets put it this way, I did not have to twist his arm.
Not a fan of grating and freezing cheese, but if the guys don't seriously start nibbling at the remaining block(s) I may have to. I only had 15 oven ready lasagna noodles in the cupboard, so a 3 layer version it was

I’m getting tired of chicken and meal planning in general.

I made homemade shake and bake chicken thighs tonight. The kids were not impressed. Their favourite is still chicken thighs baked with absolutely nothing done to it or put on it. We had M&C and steamed California veggies.

Tomorrow we’ll have chicken wraps, using the leftover chicken thighs. Sliced apple, lettuce, cheese.

I took our younger daughter to my parents for dinner; they bought some nice live crabs at H-mart and mom made crabs two ways: traditional asian stir fried and steamed.
My hubby and our older daughter stayed home and they ordered pizza hut. They chose to have pizza instead of crabs.

Going to make Homemade Pizza with the usual suspects: Pepperoni, Mushroom, Onions, Bacon, Cheddar & Parm. Will have a Salad on the side
