We've got some family members staying with us for a while and all of the cooking appears to have fallen to me. Now I don't really mind as it's something I enjoy and I'm pretty good at it, even if I do say so myself. The problem is deciding what to cook. I ask them what they fancy and the only answers I get are, "we don't mind", "anything", "whatever you like", etc, etc. I'm struggling for ideas now as it's been going on for a while so tell me what you're having this evening and see if I can find some inspiration. |

"I’ve got a piece of butterflied lamb leg in the slow cooker, I’ll have it with homemade roasties and some mixed veg  "
Sounds delicious. What time shall I be there? I'll do the washing up too  |

See what's in the cupboards then if you have the nouse just knock up whatever the heck it is. As long as it has texture and flavour they'll appreciate it. |

I'm having roast honey and garlic salmon with a greek salad kind of (roast tomatoes, feta, cucumbers, cara_elized red onion) and lambs lettuce. What about doing something fairly easy, like a roast chicken with various sides to go with it? You could do macaroni cheese, chips, salad. Or lasagne with garlic bread and salad. Sharing platter style saves you doing a lot. |

We had lamb roast at the weekend. I love lamb but twice in a week is a bit much. |

Macaroni cheese with salad and garlic bread sounds good. Thanks. |

Have a little look at the'Favourite recipe' thread as might give you some inspiration in there. One pot dishes are good if you have lots to feed or of course something like Lasagne or pasta and meatballs or egg and chips  |

Four cheese pizza.
Shredded gem lettuce; small sweet tomatoes finely chopped; spring onions finely chopped; cucumber finely chopped.
Now for the sauce... cider vinegar; salad cream; agave added until it taste sweet so you get that sweet & sour taste!
Baked potatoes & open them up and put butter on top?
You could chop up coloured peppers so you have lots of colour in your food....
You could buy wafer thin ham or German salami.
This would be mega quick to do & especially if someone is not specific about likes/dislikes! |
