What's for tea tonight? (pt 2)

[mrsfran]

Whatever I can rustle up in the ten minutes I have at home before I have to dash out to salsa class.

 

[mrsfran]

Portion of defrosted chilli, and rice

That's exactly what I've got for my lunch. Aren't we all Nigella, with our friozen portions .

Heh

I can never EVER bring myself to throw away food if there's enough left for a reasonable portion! I was doing it way before I fell in lust with Nigella too

 

[mrsfran]

Mine's more about saving money than not wasting food. I'm on a "stop spending so much money on food" drive. Because when I'm tempted, I really can spend inexcusable amounts.

Boils down to the same thing with me

My money goes absolutely nowhere and I'm convinced I overspend on food as well. So I've been going back to basics, making my mind work harder on cheap tasty food, and making it last! I was rather proud of my 4 day veggie curry last week - and there's a frozen portion as well!! It fed 3 of us for 2 days, me for another 2, and one portion left

 

[CharlieAddict]

turkey, fried brown rice noodles and loadsa veggies.

and a carrot cake and a decent bottle of marsannay...

 

[Ms T]

Merguez sausages with lemon courgettes, new potatoes, roast balsamic tomatoes and salad. I looooves merguez sausages.

 

[sojourner]

Merguez sausages

What's in em?

 

[Yetman]

Taking the mrs out...........last night ended up on pills n coke

 

[May Kasahara]

Your dinner sounds yummous May! What's hipsi cabbidge though?

It's just another type of cabbage - it's the conical kind. It's got a lighter, nuttier flavour than round cabbage and also, I've noticed, doesn't give me the farts as much, so a winner all round.

 

[Ms T]

What's in em?

Lamb and beef, I think, and lots of spice. They're North African, originally, but I got into them in France.

And where would one purchase them? I'm damn sure I've not seen them round here. They sound delish

The ones we're having tonight I got in France and bunged in the freezer. My local butcher sells them sometimes though, but I'm not sure if you can find them in the supermarket. Do you have any Middle Eastern type shops near you?

No, no ME shops round here. I might have a look in Liverpool on Saturday though.

No I won't - I'm trying to save money! (at self)


Thanks anyway

Plus I'd have wiped out several people and myself by fainting on the motorway doing 90

I need chocolate cake now. Will get some later! Mmm, with cream...

 

[aqua]

this one is really for celebration cakes (can take the weight of icing) but straight out of the oven its perfect with creamy icecream

 

[Badgers]

Beer + whatever is in the fridge
Sleep

 

[pootle]

Hey clever surburban/foodie types...what drink would go best with moroccan chicken and chickpea casserole, cous cous and halloumi?

Beer would be ok, wouldn't it? But which one?

 

[Badgers]

Stella
