Wierd ingredients help

Had my shopping delivered yesterday and I think I must have been possessed by Gordan Ramsay or something:eek:
I have ended up with a pack of raw mini chorizos, a tub of apetina cheese and a bag of dried cranberries. I have never used any of them and have no idea what to do with them.

I'm not expecting to use them all together:rotfl:
Thanks

We went to a resturant a few weeks ago and had a starter of plain fried chorizo (don't add any oil, it's very oily already!) and a chunk of fresh bread, it was delicious!

The chorizo could be used for an amazing tomato salad that Jamie did on Jamie Does...Andalucia a few weeks ago. Have a look here: http://paganum.wordpress.com/2010/04/22/jamie-olivers-tomato-and-chorizo-salad/ Or buy the book, it's wonderful. You can probably also get the programme on 4OD.

Apetina cheese is feta right? Either use it in a salad or make a quiche like this one: http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/6115/spinach--mushroom-and-feta-quiche.aspx - I make it without pastry so it's more like a fritatta.

As for the cranberries, sprinkle them on cereal or put them in a flapjack mix. Or just eat as a snack. Watch out, they're high in sugar.

Good luck!

Thanks for the suggestions, I really should have thought of some of those myself:o I didn't even realise apetina was feta cheese:rotfl:

I do it with breasts because I prefer them, works just as well.
