  • Anyone doing the £20.00 M&S meal deal?

    What did you go for?

    The orange terrine thing.
    Mushrooms. With garlic.
    Steak.
    Profiteroles. The passion fruit ones, as still mourning the disappearance of Lilt.
    The chocs.

    And the enforced £10.00 bottle of prosecco.

    The duck portions looked a bit mingy and the fish didn’t appeal.

    Leftover lasagna for dinner tonight 😀

    It was a very good one though, made it on Sunday

    (we went out for dinner last night instead)

    I’m looking forward to Lasagna

    We were going to do the M&S one, but were in Morrisons at the weekend and their deal was only £15…so we downgraded to that one….

    We’ve gone for

    Starter – Cheese Souffle
    Main – Beef Wellington & Dauphinoise Potatoes (probably a bit of broccoli too)
    Dessert – Chocolate melt-in-the-middle sponge type things

    And a large box of chocs, rather than booze because my Wife is alc-free at the moment. She has bought me a beer or two though!

    Making me hungry just thinking about it!!

    Just done the £20 Waitrose one

    Balsamic and onion tartlet wotsits
    Heston’s steak pie
    Parmentier potatoes
    Cauliflower cheese
    2013 Rioja

    Not bad, given the shelf price of the wine was £10.49

    Meh, i’m going to start a petition against 2 for £X meal deals.
    It’s blatant discrimination against single people 👿

    I’m off M&S until they stop advertising in the daily mail. It’s tough but someone’s got to do it. #stopfundinghate

    I’ve put a chili on.

    The passion fruit ones, as still mourning the disappearance of Lilt.

    So why didn’t you go for pineapple and grapefruit?

    Good point.

    Maybe it was Um Bongo?

    Balsamic and onion tartlet wotsits – there’s two, freeze the other
    Heston’s steak pie – ditto
    Parmentier potatoes – cook, eat half, freeze other half
    Cauliflower cheese – ditto
    2013 Rioja – drink as much or as little as you like

    Maybe it’s your lack of ingenuity that’s keeping you single 😉

    Meh, i’m not buying expensive food so I can freeze it and make it taste like cheap food.

    I’m off M&S until they stop advertising in the daily mail.

    I’m also off M&S until they start stocking size 30 trousers.
    Not only are they discriminating against single people, but skinny people too!

    If you eat all the food meant for 2 people, you won’t be so skinny anymore.

    Maybe it’s your lack of ingenuity that’s keeping you single

    And the negativity.
    Don’t forget that.

    Hmm, an obstinate, penny-pinching streak of pi$$, how can you be without a lady? 🙂

    I remember having a 30″ waist, was the late 80s I think…

    At home, so I’m doing:

    Goats cheese tart c/w tomato, spring onion, cucumber salad followed by mushroom filled tortellini c/w grated parmesan cream sauce.

    Prosecco to start and then a decent wine.

    I’ll hide the various boxes as CBA making pastry.

    Did the M&S dinner for two…
    Welsh Rarebit
    Steaks
    Chips
    Chocolate puddings
    Rioja

    It was surprisingly nice too. I didn’t have high expectations but really enjoyed it. Wine was good too and at a tenner made it seem good value for money.

    Did the Morrisons one

    Skipped the starter (cheese soufflé)
    Sirloin steak
    Chunky chips
    Raspberry & blackcurrant hearts (very tasty & only 116kcal each)

    Will save the wine for Ron (later Ron)

    That’s an innovative way to serve the tender stem broccoli.

    We had the M&S deal

    Starter: Cheese Rarebit
    Main: Coq au vin with squash/carrots and sugar snap peas (went all out)
    Pud: Creme Brulee
    Drink: pink alcoholic stuff

    100% would recommend, completely blows last week’s equally priced dominos out of the water..

    M&s meal here,
    Prawn & asparagus mouse,
    Coq au vin,
    Profiteroles (for tomorrow – too full of snacks)

    Surprisingly tasty, considering it was pretty much the last ones left in the shop when my wife bought them
