Hello,

Longtime OS lurker - first time OS poster! Please be patient with me.

I am away this weekend and need to use up stuff in the fridge tonight. I am a veggie following the slimming world plan. I have a well stocked store cupboard with most of the essentials and a freezer stacked with quorn. Any suggestions very gratefully received...

- 1 fresh corn on the cob
- 1 head of calabrese
- potatoes
- carrots
- 1/2 a green pepper
- 3 chestnut mushrooms

I just can't get excited by the thought of a stirfry and really can't think what else to do with it all!

TIA

Melou x

    If you have any dried chillies, how about spicy mashed potato with Corn on the Cob and a salad - It sounds dull but the spicy mash will liven things up a bit.

    i would grill the peppers and stuff themm with a spicey mash (if you have any spices!), then have some of the veg on the side :) But then I eat lots of boring food :(

    A vegetable curry?

    I could make it better myself at home. All I need is a small aubergine...

    I moved to Liverpool for a better life.
    And goodness, it's turned out to be better and busier!
