but its made even harder by the fact that DH wont eat pasta or rice...!!!

uh-oh my most economical meals are all focused round rice / pasta :eek:

CAFCGirl

exactly!!!!!!

you see my dilemma

ShelleyC_2

I just don't get how someone doesn't like either of them - whats not to like?!

CAFCGirl

thats what i think!!!!

ShelleyC_2

Has he retried them recently? Just because I've always hated certain veggies from childhood and refused to eat them but discovered recently that other than mushrooms I actually quick like all of them.


Mushrooms are horrid slimey, rubbery disgusting abominations of the vegetable world :mad:

CAFCGirl

LOL

hes ok with veggies so we may just be looking at lots of stews etc.... but life would just be so much simpler and cheaper if he would eat pasta, he has tried it again so i cant blame him too much, he just doesnt like it...

i need to find copious recipes for potato based meals!!!

Maybe you should get a slow cooker so you can just bung it all in and its cooks whilst you're at work

CAFCGirl

yeah... it literally is just a total organisational thing.... i.e i need to get organised....lol

ShelleyC_2

I love my slow cooker but its not that appealing in the summery weather - who wants stew

Good luck with the challenge

CAFCGirl

thanks hun,,

well its been go go go today, got up at 6am and then went for a bike ride, got back about 9:10, then got showered and had breakfast and travelled to meet my old work colleague with her two pugs and then also Gordon Ramsay's breeder with Gordon's mummy!!!

Was so cute, was like a little play date of puggys!!!

came home, and been to the farm shop and now im off in search of meals which I can make for less than £20 a week!!!
