Default What you having for tea tonight?

I was just interested in what others were having for tea tonight...see if I can get some ideas...

We're having: chicken, carrots, cabbage, swede and roast parsnips. Plus roastpotatoes, gravy and a little mash for my boyfriend and his daughter.

Probably some strawberries for dessert if I'm hungry later.

Just curious - is tea like dinner? We're having baked tilapia, brown rice and asparagus. Sugar-free Jello with strawberries and ff whipped cream for dessert.

Bangers with honey, dijon, and lemon sauce, and carrot mash. Hot chocolate afterwards I worked out extra hard today so it tasted all that better!

I'm guessing cauliflower mash tastes better than it sounds?! I love cauli, but think it's texture is part of the appeal, can't quite imagine it mashed!

cauliflower mash is also a great way of getting kids to eat vegetables without them even knowing

i make cottage pie with cauli mash on the top, i use extra lean beef mince to cut down calories/fat content, and then top the cauli mash with lowlow cheese, i use 15 grams per person as thats half a persons daily allowance (on south beach diet) that is one of my favourite meals!
