Made a loaf of bread.

turtlemoose

made sad-veg-soup - delicious! That's lunch at work for today and tomorrow too.

Jack Monroe is doing a bunch of gluten free recipes. I am following in earnest. Gramcakes at 15p for a breakfast was a hit.

Next on the list to try is making her GF pasta - significantly cheaper than shop bought (£1.85/kg for Jack, approx £2.80/kg Tesco own brand), and pizza base (14p pp VS 67p pp and the packet mix isn't even nice).
