A ready meal in Tesco. Never tried it and don't know if its related.

Takeaway pizza, chips, onion rings and mushy peas washed down with lots of red wine, ate outside and it felt like being on holidays , continuing inside with more wine, love long weekends.

oh ok. ah a ready meal, I wouldn't ever look on that aisle so I definitely wouldn't know what they would have.

an ex of mine used to get the meal deal in tesco for us sometimes but its not something I'd be looking at myself

I've been having a look at the Bombay Pantry stuff in Tesco lately. What's it like? Honest opinion. Any spice in their Jalfrezi?

I think it's ok. I will eat it and update you on what it's like. I just remembered I have to eat the Fit Foods one as well. I will see the dates on them and pick one.

It's butter chicken masala. It looks like it needs to be scoffed today alright.

Surreptitious · 02-04-2021 10:00pm

The sauce and rice were grand but the chicken pieces were dry. It's ok because it is all natural ingredients and made in Ireland but I think they must not be marinating the chicken. That's how Indians cook their curry sometimes.

I was in the leaba this morning and got a yearning for a fry up. Set up for the day now. I must have drank a pint of OJ with it.:)

Porklife · 03-04-2021 2:33pm

I had similar G and about a litre of OJ too

I really indulged by adding cream and parmesan to my eggs. Also had 2 extra slices of soda bread as I cooked.
It's what Jesus would have wanted for me

Isn't it great. I only indulge in a decent one every few weeks. We are worth it.:D

This evening was an all out takeaway assault. Pizzas, a spice bag, chips, dips and not in shot is a spicy beef dish for later.:eek:

Rows Grower · 03-04-2021 7:04pm

An extra spicy venison chilli con carne, the rice barely got a look in but there was extra tortilla's drafted in for scooping near the end.

A nice day picking furze petals which will be used to make beautiful sparkling wine.

Cold cider from the can now watching the sun set behind the forest.

Autosport · 03-04-2021 8:23pm

Fish Nuggets and sweet potato wedges

Dairy milk ice cream for dessert

Rows Grower · 04-04-2021 3:34pm

A brandy and Bailey's with crushed ice, Happy Easter!

Grandeeod · 04-04-2021 3:44pm

Time for some Easter Eggs after a lovely dinner. Turkey and ham with stuffing, veg, mash and garlic spuds. Bisto's southern style gravy on top.

Rows Grower · 04-04-2021 4:18pm

I wasn't even hungry until I looked at that picture, starving now!

Later than usual dinner tonight, one of those lazy sunny Sundays.

So lazy and so sunny I didn't even mind the mushey peas that sneaked their way onto the roast beef dinner plate.

Didn't mind them, but wouldn't ask for them, ever.

Enjoyed a couple of those brandy and Baileys, savage toothache all day but they helped. Slow red wine now listening to Neil Young, dentist Tuesday if he's open.

Grandeeod · 04-04-2021 8:19pm

The brandy and baileys blew the bollox out of my brains the night of my 30th and that was nearly 20 years ago. Never touched it again.:D A final beer and then the leaba. A great day of eggs and grub. A great weekend overall of nice food, beers and treats and doing the garden.:D

Porklife · 04-04-2021 8:55pm

If you can't get an appointment Tuesday Rows, you could try clove oil for toothache...or just keep knocking back brandy till the Dentist opens

I got cottage pie and cheesecake from Fallon & Byrne today and was really disappointed with both. The pie was so salty yet bland and the cheesecake is supposed to be vanilla but doesn't really taste of anything.
That's what i get for being a lazy arse today and not cooking a single meal. I even bought my breakfast out today and lunch which i threw in the bin! Might as well have just thrown 40 euro out the window!

Very nice, that's our plan for tomorrow, it'll be our first take away in about three months

Red wine and a huge crunchie Easter egg, 3 full size bars in it and the egg is huge with thick crunchie chocolate, my cholesterol is through the roof and this might push it over the edge but it's delicious.

We just polished off the last of the turkey, ham and stuffing. Had it will mushy peas and chips. A slash of gravy too. Some beers left ove so they will be consumed later.

You didn't. Bassys comment is based on a chat we all had a while back about how some of us enjoyed Aldi black pudding. The cheap 55c role and what iCorgaigh enjoyed, the 2 quid 4 piece job which is great. We are all good.:D

Rows Grower · 05-04-2021 6:05pm

Junk food from the freezer this evening.

Pizza's, Jambon's and an inspired contribution by the young lad, chicken nuggets and cheese in a brioche burger bun with Marie Rose sauce.

There's a lash of those spicy chicken wings from Lidl just about ready now to finish off anymore cravings for a takeaway for a while.

Cold cans of Molson are the beverage of choice for this particular bill of fare.

05-04-2021 6:22pm

Just had a big ,fresh, crusty roll with left over turkey from yesterday, loads of red onion, butter and garlic mayo and homemade chips with loads of salt and vinegar it hit the spot as I hadn't a clue what I wanted, going to finish the weekend off with a glass of red wine and more Easter egg no doubt.

Porklife · 05-04-2021 7:41pm

I had an old childhood favourite of buttery potato cake with fried egg and cheese on top.
I added kale, spinach, garlic, chillies and hot sauce on top.
Yummy

Oh ok. I had issues this weekend with the guy upstairs banging non stop. When I rang the landlady she said it wasn't happening so I'm a bit short.

yup sounds good and I might even try that myself.
I love spag bol because its just so simple and satisfying and carb-alicious :pac:

my new pimped up spag bol now comes with a topping of raw onion mixed with a sprinkle of frozen parsley. and it tastes sooo good.

came from a bit of a smart a$$ comment from junior when one day when I felt like I was missing something after serving dinner out - 'well why don't you put onion on it seen as you put onion on everything' :rolleyes:

chopped up the onion and loved it!

so now I'm spoiled with a simple dinner turned into a bit of a feast with the main spag bol, parmesan, garlic bread, salad, and my new lil onion topping

Colored eggs??? Nope! Just a sweet mixture of Cadbury and Nestle all unboxed. Even the small Cadbury caramel eggs are in the mix or should I say basket.:D The foil has to be peeled off first.:)
