[avu9lives]

[Frances Lengel]

Pan of kinda scouse type slop. With red cabbage. Won't be done til about eight though.

 

[Firky]

I should really eat something. All I have had all day is one Danish Pastry with a mug of hot chocolate.

I am not hungry though. Don't feel 100% but not bad enough to moan about it.

 

[Firky]

fish and chips and lemonade x

Now that I could eat!

 

[Thimble Queen]

tonight we're having a twist on the traditional cottage pie. This one has extra veggies and a little bit of spice

 

[TruXta]

Feeling very uninspired. Might get a pizza delivered.

 

[Voley]

beef and shallot maybe

Argh. I've just put a hearty beef stew on to bubble away for a couple of hours and forgot I had some shallots.

 

[miss direct]

We had cig kofte (sort of spicy bulgar balls), mucver (fried courgette patty thingies), haydari (yoghurt dip) and a chicken salady thing, followed by baklava. Burp.

 

[Me76]

Fray bentos chicken pie, roast potatoes and peas.

 

[Firky]

Looks like a marijuana tea for me

 

[moonsi til]

Had takeaway curry last night which was just ok. Tonight it's quiche, new potatoes,various veg.

Followed by a fridge annihilation?

 

[TruXta]

OH nearly started crying when I said I had no plans to cook, so guilt-tripping me into making a veggie curry.

 

[Firky]

I'll probably go to the fridge and stare at it for several minutes whilst I try and remember why I am looking in the fridge

 

[Voley]

I'd be twice the size I am if I still smoked. Entire family packs of crisps used to go missing when I enjoyed my weed.

I remember when I went back up north to see my parents for a weekend when I lived down south. I ended up going out one night to my mates, having a smoke and a bit craic. I got home, looked in the fridge and there was a big creuset stew pot thing in the fridge full of food. So I ate it, it was very tomatoy and herby, with something stodgy at the bottom. It was delicious. I ate the lot.

Found out the next day that it was raw mince in bolgnase sauce that my mum prepared the night before. I got such a bollocking

Thought it was gezpacho soup

 

[Voley]

My Grandad came home pissed from the pub and ate a Fray Bentos Steak and Kidney pie raw once. No excuses thinking it was something else either. He just ate the fucking thing as it was.

 

[gentlegreen]

Stir-fried garlic, onion, tomato, long red pepper and Chinese cabbage, egg noodles and plum sauce.

Throw em in now - A pan of slop is quite forgiving in terms of lobbing things in you'd forgotten about.

I was wondering that tbh. Don't they need a bit of frying first though?

Scratch that... We're having epic tripple meat double bean chilli

 

[Frances Lengel]

Maybe - Fry them in a separate pan then launch them in?

Think I'll save them for the next batch. It's got three onions in it already and I can't really be arsed doing owt else now tbh.

 

[Mrs Magpie]

I just did an almost bog-standard Spag Bol, but there was no spaghetti left so I did pasta shells. The sauce was sweetcorn, peppers, garlic, passata, beef mince.

Fucking hell, they;re horrible even cooked

Love making new things with leftovers. One of the current faves is using left over roast chicken to make jambalaya

It's great innit I've started planning it into the weeks meals (got a bit more time on my hands at the mo tbf ) but I'm loving it. Also keeps the food costs down too

We plan it in too and usually buy a six person chicken so that we have enough to make extra meals. Buying a chicken whole works out much better value than buying bits. Makes happy chicken more affordable

We are going to use our chilli to make a spicy pie with a sweet potato topping later in the week... I'm already excited!
