  • Chopped up in cous cous is delish. Add some raw red onion finely sliced and some lemon juice and some pumpkin/sunflower seeds if you're being really fancy.

    Ever wonder about those people who spend £2 apiece on those little bottles of Evian water? Try spelling Evian backward.

    How about using an egg and a splash of milk to make a frittata. cut into wedges it is great in a lunch box.

    Any ideas of what I can do with left over roasted carrots and parsnips? How well do they reheat? What if I freeze them? Could I make them into something else? Any lunchbox ideas would be brilliant!

    Do you have a microwave where you eat your lunch :confused: I add toasted nuts and a few chick peas to mine, nuke them for a minute or so, and eat :D

    We have an existing thread with more ideas, so I'll add this for you to get more ideas.

    thanks for all the good ideas, dont know which to choose now! Oh and thanks for the merge Penny, I did a search but didnt spot this thread.
  • I cooked roast potatoes and parsnips and have some left over. Would they survive being reheated? I haven't tried before because in the past I've judged the number of veg right.

    Could I reheat in the microwave or would they need doing in the oven?

    I used to be indecisive but now I am not sure.

    I've been known to bamg them in a Curry sauce before (usually a Rogan Josh or Jalfrezi). It's known in our house as Left Over Curry and it's lovely ;)
