  • We're also trying to use up what we've got. Haven't thought this through very much (I was doing well, honest!)

    - pasta with cherry toms and ricotta
    - chicken curry (pasta free!)
    - lasagne (bolognaise in freezer)
    - tuna pasta
    - fish pie (fish in freezer) (pasta free!)
    - anything else I find frozen (probably with pasta)

    Trying to use up loads of pasta, I've got it coming out of my ears :rotfl:

    Tuesday - Toad in the hole, gravy and fresh veg
    Wednesday - Kedgaree (Thanks Lynzpower for reminding me I have smoked haddock at the bottom of the freezer)
    Thursday - Pasta bake
    Friday - Prawn curry and rice (using up the odd little bags of prawns at the bottom of the freezer)
    Saturday - dd home so her favourite - chicken stew and dumplings
    Sunday - Christmas begins!
    Our days are happier when we give people a bit of our heart rather than a piece of our mind.
