Home Alone Food Ideas Please!

[Smowball]

Ok I have the house all to myself tonight so no cooking for Mr Smow! I wouldn't ever bother cooking just for myself either so was thinking about walking to the shops and getting a few bits to make a little platter that I can nibble at through the evening.
What would you eat if you were on your own for the eve? Would you cook? Or have a selection of tasty titbits?
Any any ideas of what I could get would be most appreciated!

I think anything involving cheese it excellent, especially cheese bubbling away on toast with some pickle - YUM.

Well first you have the cooker fitted by a man who doesn't remove the ties that keep the cooling fan rigid during transport.....just use a cable tie tonight, Cory.....
Then decide that although you won't cook you'll make scones.....high temperature.......then sit back and wait for the cooker to heat up and keep on heating up.....
You will be finding bits of glass from the doors for weeks afterwards....but if that results in a dishy fireman.......heyho!....x

I had a fire in my kitchen recently Gness, which is why I have now had a new one. You should have seen the dishy firemen rushing around my house and me in all my tatty old nightie and dressing gown glory!! Why are firemen always dishy??

Spinach & ricotta tortelloni with tomato & mascarpone sauce and Greek yogurt.

I know, HereIam.....and to make things worse a policeman arrived as well and recognised me....
I had broken his leg, accidentally, about twenty years earlier and just before he was getting married....
There was quite a spread in the local paper with a picture of the happy couple and him in a plaster on crutches....

He'd remembered too....... :-)

^ chuckle ....

[Smowball]

Some very tasty ideas still coming in!
Gness do you not have a cooker then??

[gness]

There is one in this kitchen, Smow......it was here when I bought the house......the top oven and grill bit remain a mystery....
I have used the bottom oven but the bulb went and I can't get it out so I had to use a torch to see in......and that was a chore.....
I do have two air fryers though......they're just perfect for me.....x

I'd definitely buy Chinese-style and B'b'q flavour chicken pieces from the supermarket because Mr. J2doesn't like chicken and it's a faff to cook 2 meals - result is that I don't eat it very often, and I like it :)

i can't resist asking ... how can you break a policeman's leg accidentally?

[Patsy33]

Have you thought about getting yourself a nice ploughman Smow?...

[gness]

We were larking about, Ael....and he accidentally got a bad kick on the back of his leg......it didn't break but did some damage.
That was when his walkie talkie beeped and he had to jump in his panda car....the one I'd tied the string of tin cans to the previous day....hence the larking.....and hare off to apprehend some robbers...
As he jumped (with difficulty by now) a hedge after one of the robbers the damaged leg gave way and broke.....

Simple as that really...... :-)

[aelmpvw]

thanks, it was obvious really, don't know why i had to ask :-)

[gness]

You're welcome....just had a google around to see if I could find the local paper article but it was far too long ago.....x

[Smowball]

What's this ploughman's name Patsy? ; )

[Patsy33]

I think it's Andy Plower Snow. Get yourself some nice crusty bread, cheddar cheese, pork pie and a few pickled onions! Washed down with what ever takes your fancy.... Enjoy your evening. :-)

When it's just me for food I quite often buy Chinese duck with pancakes. No washing up and delicious.

I would eat something that is really very healthy, and at the same time tasty as well. You would think that how is it possible to have a healthy and tasty food because most of the healthier foods rarely have some taste. This has become possible with the help of an air fryer. It uses air for the preparation of food and you can enjoy your favorite snacks without the fear of putting on weight! Pick a reliable site for having one of the best air fryers for yourself.
