    I don't think anyone comes on this bit of the site :rotfl:

    Those 150 000 views for the two threads did not just come from the dozen or so of people who post on them, Weezl :D

    you mean maybe martin is reading???

    Surely not :eek:;)

    I wondered if people might do mini shopping tests though if they usually shop at asda, like: is it possible to find enough loose apples that weigh 100g or less to buy 15 or so each week :o:D

    There's a spot more nutritional research going if anyone has their googling fingers at the ready, also would anyone fancy doing any more writing for shirl?

    Shanks lets look again at your excellent tips about getting fussy family members to eat things (shame it didn't work on ex tonight ;)!) I think shirl will find that very useful :)

    It just seems too much of a coincidence.

    ah I think we've missed each other's window for today :)

    I sent you where I've got to, but it may not help without me commenting. I'll try to find you tomorrow or something:A

    It took me a while to find it but I did after reading more carefully the second time. I think it is too much of a coincidence too.

    I would like to try these
    red pepper houmous
    coconut rice pudding
    chilli
    moroccan rice
    saag aloo gobi
    special fried rice with cashews and bean sprouts
    nut roast with bubble and squeak and onion gravy

    thanks grandma 247 :)

    I'd better get some recipes posted eh?

    But not tonight as poor neglected OH has summonsed me :)

    He feels that I love Bob more than him, and I must correct that :rotfl:

    Someone from the team must have a look in this bit on occasion, else they might miss out on the tips ! And yes, I'm with Susan here - what on earth would it mean otherwise ?

    I wondered if people might do mini shopping tests though if they usually shop at asda, like: is it possible to find enough loose apples that weigh 100g or less to buy 15 or so each week :o:D


    I'll have a look around next time I'm in Asda, but might not be able to help much as my Asda is only a little one and doesn't carry much loose produce !

    There's a spot more nutritional research going if anyone has their googling fingers at the ready, also would anyone fancy doing any more writing for shirl?


    I can do writing. What's needed ?
  • red pepper houmous
    pasta salad
    lentil pate
    tomato olive pie
    veggie burgers
    pasta funghi
    [STRIKE]coconut rice pudding[/STRIKE]
    swede cloddies
    [STRIKE]
    chilli
    [/STRIKE]
    [STRIKE]vegan mayo[/STRIKE]
    vegan raisin scones
    moroccan rice
    saag aloo gobi
    panzanella

    onion tarte tatin

    these are the ones my DD1 would like to try! She doesn't like olives, but is interested in the lentil pudding without olives, and an't eat chilli or kidney beans.

    She is really looking forward to the special fried rice, nut roast,saag aloo gobi!
    We had the onion tart for dinner tonight - it was lovely, she is really enjoying trying new dinners!!:T:T

    Baked bean curry

    Hmmm.....I think this dish has an identity crisis. It was a bit like chilli and a bit like curry. It filled me up but probably not one I would have again.

    However very very easy to makexxxxxxxxxxxxx
