Great dinner ideas

[Julie-Ann]

Thanks Lorraine I will. Maybe I can sell the rice cooker I never use to buy a slow cooker.

So I have to go and do some food shopping later and I need inspiration.
What are you cooking tonight?

[Julie-Ann]

Fantastic Rachel. We all have our talents and food is not mine.
Great to get some ideas for easy to prepare meals.

Julie-Ann, that is a great idea. I love my slow cooker.

Will everyone please stop talking about slow cookers?

Mine died last winter (luckily, at the end!), and I haven't replaced it yet. I have a VERY small kitchen, and all the ones I've seen would take half the bench space.

But, oh, do I miss it?! Especially as these lovely, dark, cooler evenings are upon us...

So, enough already. Let's talk about what we can do with our breadmakers... LOL

I am loving all the delicious meals being spruked here.
I had a lovely lunch today that I thought I would share.....could be good for easy dinner aswell.

Avacado, red onion, tomatoes chopped into small pieces with salt and cracked pepper....all on a piece of chiabbata bread or similar with 2 poached eggs and a tomato relish or salsa (very small amount) drizzled over the top.
It was delish and very fresh.

Now that I have had that I am thinking I will keep the mexican theme happening and go for Nachos for dinner.......easy friday dinner

[Julie-Ann]

That sounds so delicious Elements. I just bought some fresh eggs for poaching. I was going to have them in the morning but I think I will try this for lunch tomorrow instead.
For dinner tonight I am cheating. We are having left over butter chicken from the freezer. I always make a big batch so there is enough for 2 dinners.
Tomorrow I am cheating again. I have bought from the butcher a chicken swirl that has chicken, sundried tomatoes, cheese and olives in pastry for DH. And for Mr16 a lamb shank pie- so yummy.

Well, my DH is out tonight and we have some left over risotto/risoni, so I reheated that, added some cream cheese and topped that off with some grated tasty cheese and pop that in the oven. That way I have an easy cooked dinner with the kids and use up the left-overs too!

[Julie-Ann]

Brilliant- don't you just love leftovers.

Julie-Ann dinner was PERFECTION!!!! The fragrant smell when I arrived home was heaven!!!!
