    I would use the mince, onion and tomatoes as a base for a cottage pie. After you've eaten leave it to go cold and cut it into portions for the freezer.

    You could also do the veggie burger with potatoes sliced very thinly and layered with the cheese and onion. Pour over some of milk mixed with a stock cube.

    If you have enough nori sheets i would make sticky rice rolls with different fillings eg red onion and cheese, pepper and spiced lentils. just roast the nori leaf, boil rice till it is sticky put on nori leaf and then put one line of the filling in the middleroll up (bamboomats are handy if youhave them) and slice into 1/2 inch rounds.

    mmm my mum used to make these will have to go and get nori this weekend
