    a small lamb breast 75p

    beef mince £2

    beef joint reduced to £2

    lamb breast 75p

    2 like lamb bits on bone 75p

    meatballs 1.80

    beef skirt 75p
    Off of the top of my head Claire you could make the following:

    Beef mince (depending on size of pack) make chilli, lasagne (you can pick up the basic sheets for abotu 40ishp) spag bol.

    Beef joint - a nice roast and any left over could be used in the boys sandwiches?

    Lamb breasts - maybe make a lamb curry in the slow cooker?

    Lamb on the bone - make as soup. Put in the slow cooker with some of the veggie stock and maybe left over veg from roast?

    Meat balls - make your own passata sauce to go with them.

    Myt mouth is watering now!

    Bookie,

    Hot bath and G&T will make you feel really relaxed, possibly catatonic.

    thanks lmc theres a few meals there then not bad for the price mmm

    i think cause the mince is from a farm it won't shrink as much as smart price (what i usually use) so if i cook it and bulk it out with mushrooms and what? i could get 2 meals from it i have lasagne sheets here but no bolognaise sauce :(
