thankyou pink winged. Crab salad sounds lovely, ive not had crab before.. Is there a certain way u do u salad, dressing etc? Im gona go and buy a crusty load and we'll have that for dinner tomorrow night. How do i find where u put my msg? Should i just look through store cupboard forum til u find it? Sorry it sounds like i just answered my own question lol. Tanku again for replying, im really shy so it was nice to have a msg five min after posting.

I just drain the crab and make a salad with lettuce, diced cucumber, chopped cherry tomatoes and spring onions or raddish. Depending on what I have in, I'll add avocado pear, red pepper, celery, grated carrot, pine nuts etc...just add things that you like. Make your salad, put the crab on the side or on top if you like. Serve with a wedge of lemon to squeeze over the crab and a large dollop of mayonaise. Coleslaw on the side is good too. Alternatively you could mix the crab, peppers, celery and raddish together with mayonaise and a squeeze of lemon juice and serve on top of the lettuce leaves.

If a thread is moved or merged into another one a re-direct is left (where you can click on the original thread and it will take you to where the thread is now) for a week. If you can't find a post you have made, go to the top of the page towards the top right of the page there is a 'speech bubble' which says forum, that will take you to the main page of the chat forum. If you scroll down, you'll see a list of all users on line. If you are logged in, your name will be first in the list. Click on that and there will be an option to find all posts by princess lou. Alternatively you can subscribe to threads you have posted on or are interested in. Click here for more details on subscribing to threads. The site A-Z is a very helpful tool when you are new to the forum and there's a beginners guidethat should help you find your way around. Failing that, if you ever need to find something just send a message to myself or Penny and we'll be glad to help.

Finally, please don't be shy about posting. We were all new to the forums and a bit nervous once. Most people who post on the Old Style board are very kind and helpful and I hope you'll feel part of the community in no time.

good morning. Im new to this site. Was wondering if i could join the challenge, or am i late? Does it start weekly or monthly

princess_lou

vixtress, hope u dnt mind as im new, but regarding ur fridge veggies.. I would mix them wiv pasta sauce/pasata/tin toms and herbs. Then chuck sum spices in and serve them in wrps, on rice or top of jacket pots. The veg in sauce should result in a mexican type . Hope that makes sense?

I think we have all fallen off the challenge, I did really well then it all seemed to go wrong again! we will be moving soon and will need to put at least one freezer into storage so will be starting again. Gonna try an inventory over next few days and will start again.

There's also the Grocery Challenge up at the top of the page for lots of ideas & recipes I'll certainly have a look at your list though when you post it. I don't do the storecupboard challenge as I haven't got the room to store too much (at the rate the boys eat it ) but I love coming up with ideas for random food thats in the house!
