    If you make your own white sauce to use in that, it would be cheaper :)

  • Living without tomatoes is easy. OH doesn't like tomatoes, and to make life more fun, he mustn't have (too many) dairy products. And I can't tolerate any soy-based products, so stock cubes are out.

    So just to remind you - in a fix, you can make a 'white sauce' with water instead of milk. Works well with mushrooms, and you can put boullion powder (or a stock cube) into it. Loads of good recipes using this :)

    Edited for clarity - I don't mean a white sauce which you would have made just with flour and milk, I mean the sort of sauce which you can start off by frying mushrooms, or leeks or something, then add flour and milk/water. Delicious base for lots of things. :xmassign:
