Here's What I Had For Dinner - Part III - Don't quote pics!

My new favourite thing is sausage tray bake. Ridiculously simple but so satisfying.
Carrots, baby potatoes, red pepper, cherry tomatoes, courgette, red onion, garlic, rosemary, sausages (of course!), paprika, smoked paprika, chilli flakes, olive oil and s&p. Finished off with with some balsamic.
The veg can be pretty much anything and I love it because I can empty out the fridge in one go.
I love to do this too, but I make a sauce of melted butter, wholegrain and English mustard, honey and curry powder (trust me!) and pour it over 15 minutes before it's ready to be eaten and it's scrumptious.

Had to be simple, quick and satisfying yesterday, as I was working until late and the weather called for comfort food.
I made a veg fritatta (salad potatoes, yellow pepper, onion, courgette) with a good handful of cheese over it, green beans from the garden on the side and some lovely piri piri sauce to make it all sing.

Had special fried rice from the Chinese tonight and I commented how I've never managed to make it myself that it tastes like a restaurant dish.
I'd be interested in the recipe you use.
I used this recipe: https://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-make-the-best-chicken-fried-rice-249769
Since I had leftover chicken I cubed it and added it to the cooked veg and stirred it for a couple of minutes. I cut the carrot into thin strips rather than dice so it would cook through, and I added a sliced onion with the carrot instead of sweetcorn. I didn't have red pepper flakes so I added a good amount of ground black pepper to the sizzling oil when the veg was just cooked and it gave a great flavour.
I didn't bother with the nuts.
We liked it so much it's going to be a regular on the menu here
Edited to add: I used one of the Aldi trays (not the pouch) of microwaveable steamed long grain rice. It worked extremely well, it was light and fluffy.0 -

Looks delisch - want to try this. Thanks for sharing, Dizzyblonde!
My old friend used to make a vinegary bacon fried rice - was addictive but nowhere near as nourishing as this recipe.0 -

Sounds great, doesn't it?
I've always been disappointed in take away fried rice. Seems very unhealthy and incomplete for what should be a wholesome meal.
I also love the Kitchn, great site with interesting culinary science experiments!0 -

I was going to go the milk/potato/onion route, but got lazy and used a pouch of pre cooked basmati.
Something similar tonight but with potatoes.

Savage,it looks cooked to perfection. I love when it just falls apart when you put the fork in, looks like that. Nice crockery as well!
This Thai noodle was today, the stars of the show were particularly tasty jalapeños and carrots from the garden. I wanted something Asian resembling a takeaway and this was bang on. Thank merciful feck there's still some for today's dinner because it's going to be a mad one. Sad and all as it is, I'm reassured by the idea that there's something so delicious a few twists of the microwave away.
Also, dessert; apple crumble with apple jelly and homemade custard. I thought I'd be sick of apples by this week but I'll get a few more weeks of intaking about four a day before the cider is ready Mid-september.

No bacon in it, but cheese sauce made with real-smoked Cheddar.
I think I'll make these next weekend. I absolutely love Spaetzle, but it's a little time consuming and messy making them.
I'll have to find some Appenzeller now... good excuse to go to the English Market
