    HELP!

    Can anyone help please - my Selfridges delivery is late and all I have in for tomorrow is

    1 half bitten into babybel (the common red one:o)
    1 very large unopened bag of yellow lentils (very healthy I believe)
    Some brewers yeast borrowed from my mum( thanks mum)
    1/2 can of heinz tomato soup (4 days old)
    1 OXO (veg)
    and a vit B (high strength) tablet effervescent
    1 spoonful of very old jam

    The good news is I have a Remoska, 4 breadmakers (various makes) and a slow cooker. Cooking for a family of 9 until Selfridges sort themselves out.

    Is it possible
    How many times do I have to say it ??:wall: you can not cook everything in a slow cooker/breadmaker/remoskathinggie :rolleyes: :rolleyes: -however for the ingredients you have Nelski you can make an excellent 'potage au poisson d'avril' using all three appliances in succession. Unfortunately I only have the recipe in French. I can do you a translation but probably not till later -after midday in fact. Quel dommage:D
