It just had to be done didn't it. 😎
A real childhood favourite of mine and a not so secret adult addiction too. A fishfinger butty along with crisp butties are just a brilliant, simple and oh so tasty snack meal. There's nothing 'wartime' about it, but as soon as I saw the pack of fishfingers that I bought as my 'meat ration' this week I knew what would be on the menu.
As per the menu, Monday was porridge for breakfast. The fish finger butties for lunch and then I fancied something a bit more substantial for my tea, as I knew I would when I wrote out the plan. Fish finger butties may be tasty but they are not that filling are they.
So I had a small 'roast dinner', and it was really tasty.
Just two Linda McCartney sausages, two little sage and onion stuffing patties, boiled potatoes and a handful of mixed vegetables, all topped off with a generous pour of Bisto gravy.
While I was making the boiled potatoes I made sure that there were enough extras to be able to mash them ready for Wednesday and Fridays meals, it's nice to get a little ahead with things.

They are addictive aren't they, I can hear the fishfingers calling to me from the freezer!! ;-)
DeleteYes, another fish finger sarnie fan here. With salad cream!
ReplyDeleteI'm a mayo girl myself. It just has to be done doesn't it. :-)
DeleteYou are making me want some fish sticks, as they are called here. I like your meal plan for the week.
ReplyDeleteFish sticks actually makes a lot more sense doesn't it, I mean we have 'crab sticks' in this country but 'fish fingers' ... illogical. :-)
DeleteYour supper looks like it could have come straight from my kitchen, and I think might have to queue-jump onto the menu for tomorrow (tonight's is already out of the freezer).
ReplyDeleteA few months back I did the same as you and thought "oh, fish finger sandwich, must have!" and an hour later realised it was not filling at all and I needed something else.
Yes, it was really tasty but eaten far too quickly and an hour or so later I was mooching around. Hence the nice cooked tea which was much more satisfying overall.
DeleteNow my silly little head would justify the fishfinger butty by saying " during the war " ( a touch of Uncle Albert here ) they had bread, butter or marg, fish and breadcrumbs so there you go -- permission granted :)
ReplyDeleteExactly ... they had all the ingredients but none of Mr Birdseye's knowledge. ;-)
