What can I have for dinner tonight?

[annie0000]

I feel like making something nice for dinner tonight, all my recipe books are in boxes in the spare room (along with loads of other crap!) as I have just replaced the shelves in the study and haven't gotten round to refilling them yet.

I need to go to the shops anyway, so ingredients are not an issue (can't use anything not freely available in sainsburys though!)

Not a big fish lover, but prawns are fine and I particularly like chicken.

Need to go to the shops pretty soon, anybody any suggestions?

Annie.........make some beautifully delicious creamed peas and then give me the recipe:)

Sorry stewy, but I have not got a clue what creamed peas are, but if I did, I'd gladly give you the recipe!! Why don't you just cover them in cheese sauce?

This is very easy and tasty:

about 1lb of hamburger
2 cans baked beans
1 can creamed corn (NOT kernel corn}
onion, green pepper

Chop up some onion and pepper and cook in fair size saucepan (using butter) for about 5 minutes. Add hambuger and cook until done. Add any spices you like, and maybe some bbq sauce , worchester etc. Add the beans and corn, mix and heat together. If you like, add some grated cheese.........very nice with toast or even use some to stuff a squash.

Chicken breat fillet stuffed with cream cheese, garlic and basil, wrapped in parma ham cook in oven gas mark 6/200 for 20-25 mins. Meanwhile boil some small pots and steam some green beans. Ta da!

Oh eash you've made me hungry. Might try that tomorrow as I'm having a takeaway curry tonight.

[stewey]

I forgot.....add some horseradish to the mixture.

Oh that was supposed to be chicken *breast* by the way! lol
I cooked it last weekend, quick, easy and tasty :-)

Sorry Jan, curry sounds good to me though! lol

Go and get a takeaway....pizza, kebab, indian, chinese, Italian, fish and chips.

Treat yourself !!!!

Thanks for all the ideas everyone - unfortunately I had already gone to the shops - we had roast chicken cooked with garlic butter under the skin, baked potatoes, brocolli and carrots. Hammerman - we had a takeaway last saturday as a treat when we had family staying for the weekend - the first for about 5 years, not that fussed really - can't say I enjoyed it any better than the steak pie, mash, brussels and carrots we had the next day!
