idly wondering what everyone else is eating. We are spag bol (from the freezer) and salad and then an apple crumble I found - at least I think it's an apple crumble...forgot to label it and have been caught out before

Had bacon, egg, hash browns and toast for breakfast so won't eat now until around 6.30 this evening when it will be roast chicken, roast potatoes, carrots, cauliflower and broccoli followed by fruit yoghurt for dessert and my weekly glass of wine! Sunday is not a day for diets!

Macaroni cheese with second crop wild chanterelle mushrooms.

Last night we had home-made oven chips cooked in goose fat, bacon, fried egg, asparagus.

Right now I'm having a crunchy peanut butter and raspeberry jam butty and a mug of tea.

Tonight it will be slow cooked gammon, roast potatoes, carrots and broccoli in cheese sauce. No pudding, we will be full with that.

Roast chicken,stuffing, roast potatoes, greens, carrots, yorkshires and gravy maybe a yoghurt if I've room...

Gagagran Sun 18-Oct-15 13:34:23

We've just had slow cooked lamb shanks, roasties and leeks followed by plum crumble tart for DH and a coffee corner yoghurt for me.

Roast beef, roast potatoes, Yorkshire pudding (not home made blush ) carrots, mashed swede and lightly creamed cabbage.

No pudding, but no doubt I'll get the urge to eat one of the lidl cornetto type things at some point during Downtown!

Roast shoulder of WELSH not rubbish Italian lamb for us today with home grown potatoes, aubergine & peppers and bought sweet potato! We sometimes get Welsh lamb on offer at the local supermarket and it is such a treat that we buy several joints ( as does a Welsh friend of ours) and freeze it!! Washed down with plenty of home made wine!

mollie Sun 18-Oct-15 14:18:46

Fingers crossed beef casserole for us - fingers crossed because I've thrown this and that in and am hoping it all tastes yummy! And, using Hugh F-W's advice, I'm cooking double to use in the week. That's if my OH doesn't decide he fancies seconds or thirds...

HappyNan1 Sun 18-Oct-15 14:36:21

Roast lamb, new potatoes, peas, green beans, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, home made yorkshires, then sticky toffee pudding.

Katek Sun 18-Oct-15 14:38:45

Meatballs -or in my case Quorn balls- in a tomato sauce served with tagliatelle, followed by Galia melon with dusting of cinnamon.

Pittcity Sun 18-Oct-15 14:45:44

Roast beef, roasties in goose fat, yorkshires (frozen), mixed veg (frozen) and a glass of home made Rioja. Don't usually have dessert but there is home made rhubarb crumble (home grown rhubarb) in the freezer if we fancy something.

annsixty Sun 18-Oct-15 15:01:25

Am I the only one who only ever eats Yorkshire pudding ( always home made) with beef, never any other meat?

kittylester Sun 18-Oct-15 15:25:27

No Ann you're not. It seems strange to me.

Aurelia Sun 18-Oct-15 15:54:10

Beef casserole here with boulangere potatoes.

numberplease That's about 21700 fish fingers! There has got to be a world record for you there.

And only Birdseye Aurelia, so old Clarence has had a few bob out of us! Today, dinner (at 3pm) was roast turkey, roast and mashed tates, carrots and Brussel sprouts, with Bisto gravy, and to drink, Stella pear cider. Tea will bejust coffee and cakes.

Auntieflo Sun 18-Oct-15 18:59:19

Roast chicken, roast potatoes, honey and mustard roasted parsnips and carrots, spiced sweet potato wedges, sausages, stuffing and gravy. Apple crumble and ice cream to follow. Usually eat in the evening, but DD and SIL to lunch today. Both stuffed now, so nothing this evening, except maybe a cup of coffee later on.

hildajenniJ Sun 18-Oct-15 21:44:55

Pork and pineapple curry, rice and poppadoms? sp. For pudding we had apple crumble and cream. The curry was the first I ever made when my DC were young, and my DD remembers it fondly.

rubysong Sun 18-Oct-15 22:12:59

Roast lamb(with mint sauce), roast potatoes,roast home grown parsnips, carot & swede mash, also a few Yorkshire puddings I had in the freezer (home made). For actress, pineapple upside down pudding with clotted cream. We were joined by DS2 & DGF (& dear granddog), otherwise dinner would have been more modest.

rubysong Sun 18-Oct-15 22:13:52

... For afters, not for actress!

Luckygirl Sun 18-Oct-15 22:18:07

Tuna steak with salad.

Out of doors eating - at the fire pit table - goulash, baked potatoes, birthday cake and a huge steamed treacle sponge. (Latter two cooked indoors!) This feast followed a crazy afternoon of daughters & their families building a raft and trying it out on a local pond. Nobody drowned but some got rather wet!

jinglbellsfrocks Mon 19-Oct-15 12:49:13

Whatever we have, it will include swede. Cooked by the microwave method posted somewhere on GN yesterday.
