    Just spotted you've got bacon too:

    You don't need much at all to add a bacon taste to pasta sauces, only one or 2 rashers will be enough to flavour it for 4 people.

    Admittedly I rarely buy bacon rashers, I normally get the Tesco value mishapes packs, you have to pick and chose as some have more lean in than others. I think the other supermarkets do their version. It's a mixture of smoked and unsmoked, I split it when I buy it, then freeze it in smaller bits to use when cooking pasta sauces etc.. They currently call it 'Tesco Value Cooking Bacon' 500 gms for £1.14

    My hand's up in favour of a separate forum too.
  • Is that one of those sunrise light thingys? Do they help?!
    Yes like this (Oh that's a different design - looks neater than the one I got)
    I'm not sure if it works because it does make a difference or because I think it will IYSWIM.

    Anyone up for a challenge?

    I've just gone through my store cupboard :) and written down what I have here, gonna do fridge and freezer next.

    Would anyone like to help me meal plan? I think I've got enough to feed us all week without having to buy much :)
