    Hello there :T

    I will talk to you :D

    When i make meatballs, i shape them, stick them in the oven on a baking sheet so they cook right through and you can always tip any juices into the sauce you are making... you can then either put the meatbally into your freezer container, and sauce on top....or put the sauce in the bottom and plop the balls on top and freeze...:T :T
    hope your having fun:rotfl: :rotfl:
    I will keep posted to see what else you make :D
    -6 -8 -3 -1.5 -2.5 -3 -1.5-3.5

    im back:D

    And also next time you make meatballs you can add some breadcrumbs, grated carrot, finely chopped onions etc...it makes them lighter and you get more from your mince :j :j

    Odd question, where abouts in the country are you?? only i may have some info regarding scales :D

    oooohhh and congrats on the new star

    MRSMCAWBER: :kisses3: thank you for talking to me!! That sounds like a much better idea, will do that next time, thank you! :rotfl:

    Still trying to find out how many tablespoons an ounce of flour and an ounce of oats are, will have to give up soon and just try anyway!

    I'm trying to mix up a bit of sweet cooking (my favourite) with savoury (bleh :rotfl: ) so i don't get too fed up!
