all great ideas..thanks....I love paella....rest not to fussy on sea food...but I could make it with chicken and veg...chicken lasagne sounds yummy too......But I fancy the idea of a cassoulet type of thing .......mmmmmm...plan tonight.....cheers

Championi - as you obviously want a "one pot" something what have you got against a "funky" euro pot au feu with ham joint, beans, garlic, macaroni, Italian sausages or similar in cassolet. Phillips paella is a good suggestion, I did a 2 x salmon kedgeree at the weekend which went down really well with some good wine followed by a selection of cheeses. A good red wine casserole (and can be reheated)with some rustic bread never fails. Let us know what you decide to do

I made a chicken lasagne on Friday - I bought a free range chicken and roasted it - then I cut it into bite size chunks - made the tomato sauce as I would usually with a bolognese but without the mince, then added the chicken at the end. make the ladagne up as normal!
It went down a treat with our fussy eaters!

thought about a paella?

I think a sit down meal would be best.

Do you want a "sit down" meal or one where peeps can help themselves?

thanks..thought of those...most would prob eat lasagne...but i'm not too fussy on mince dishes....maybe i'll just get a chinese..lol

How about something like lasagne, moussaka or chilli?

Really depends whether you've got any likes/dislikes/allergies to cope with.
