Morning all-just have to say that my rice pudding made in the slow cooker was the best ever and from now on I am using risotto rice to make it :-D :-D, am determined to have another NSD today so breakfast was crumpets from the freezer and remains of cereal packets-all the ones that get left half empty!Will have to shop Saturday but am meal planning from what is in the cupboard ,freezer etc and will only buy the absolute necessary.Tea tonight is tuna pasta bake with frozen beans peas and sweetcorn- yum-all from my cupboard-thanks to Penelope Penguin for inspiration!

Did the rice not go all yukky and brown though ? I tried it once in the SC and it was a disaster. Not sure what I did wrong.

Hi Mardatha-no- kept an eye on it and stirred it every so often ,it was cooking on high for about 5hrs and i checked it every 3/4 hr,at the end i put a circle of grease proof paper on to stop it getting a skin as kids don't like that.Your cooker maybe hotter/faster than mine? it was absolutely delicious though and enough for me to have some at lunch ;-D
I may do more and use it instead of buying muller rice !

Morning everyone! Snowing here :-D
Having the remains of last nights tuna bake for lunch-surprisingly yummy and all the kids liked it which is no mean feat in my house!
Tea tonight is veggie green thai curry using a couple of jars of sauce ,quorn pieces and frozen veg with rice and some indian snacks as starters (left over from xmas in the freezer)
Have had to get husband to get milk,bread and loo roll as we have run out!But at least that is breakfast covered tomorrow :-D

Back to it after my pizza breakdown. Night before last was a homemade ready meal of chicken and courgettes in a tomato sauce, thet was from the freezer, served with penne. Then last night, seeing as there was so much leftover, I layered it with a cheese sauce and turned it into a pasta bake.

OH is off to Puerto Rico today, supposedly on business, but I'm sure he'll have a little time to enjoy his beach side hotel, all on expenses!!! We're left a home with King Prawn Massala, a bargain I picked up before christmas for 25p.
