We had red lentil penne (wasn’t bad, wasn’t great) with a quick sauce that included the last of the turkey meatloaf. Of the three recipes we made based around the meatloaf, this was the best one, but still just average, not exceptional.
It's the teriyaki chicken with chow mein noodles. I like the orange chicken too and sometimes get a combo, but it doesn't reheat as well so this time I got all teriyaki.What chicken is that? It looks good. And lo mein/noodles?
I’d be very interested to know what your three meatloaf meals were, sorry I know you will have posted them but I haven’t joined the dots. We’re currently doing cook one thing for three meals for my son once a week to try and help with some of his exam stress.We had red lentil penne (wasn’t bad, wasn’t great) with a quick sauce that included the last of the turkey meatloaf.

No problem - the first one was the turkey meatloaf itself, done in muffin tins to make little individual loaves. Those were…ok, but not tasty enough to make again.I’d be very interested to know what your three meatloaf meals were, sorry I know you will have posted them but I haven’t joined the dots.

I was happy with the three I did today but it was a bit time consuming.
Thanks. Might skip the devils backside oneNo problem - the first one was the turkey meatloaf itself, done in muffin tins to make little individual loaves. Those were…ok, but not tasty enough to make again.
Second dish was stuff cabbage rolls, with a filling of some of the crumbled up meatloaf, along with couscous, walnuts, and raisins. Sounded brilliant on paper, tasted like the devil’s backside in reality. That went into the trash.
The last was the penne, with a turkey meatloaf sort of bolognese. That was by far the best, and first time using GF red lentil pasta.
Yep - while the pasta was simmering away, into a big skillet with onion, garlic, red pepper flakes, oregano, salt, crushed tomatoes, and the crumbled meat (at the proper intervals), simmer it, and when the pasta’s done, into the sauce with a little of the pasta water and that’s that.So you just crumble the meatloaf up for the sort of bolognese one?
Where do you buy your fromage frais? I was looking around for an unflavoured one, my regular shops only seem to sell the flavoured desert type.Curry Pasta Salad - Indian Salad Recipes - Sanjana.Feasts
The half fat fromage frais I used is so dense in comparison to the yogurt called for in the recipe I didn’t need to squeeze any juice out of the carrot etc, I just bunged it in, gave the perfect consistency.
Morrisons and Waitrose. I was surprised when I looked that you’re right, others longer sell it and both Morrisons and Waitrose only sell the low fat version - which works well so I don’t really careWhere do you buy your fromage frais?

That inspired me.We had bacon cheeseburgers for dinner.
I picked up a Chinese takeout mystery shop earlier while I was out working on another project but I didn't eat any of it yet.

I tend to stretch it out by cutting up extra cabbage and onions and then adding the Chinese takeout and warming it in the same pan. Some added toasted sesame seeds and a drizzle of sesame oil is nice. Or furikake. Noodles are noodles, yours looks good and healthy!That inspired me.
I just made some but I had fettuccine noodles.View attachment 126572View attachment 126573
Thank you. I used some leftover pork, carrots, broccoli, jalapeno, onion, and totally forgot I had toasted sesame oil so I used sunflower.I tend to stretch it out by cutting up extra cabbage and onions and then adding the Chinese takeout and warming it in the same pan.
