I'm eating out of the freezer and cupboards challenge

Florenceem

In to freezer - 8 individual meat pies and 4 portions of pie + tub of LO pie filling.
Out of freezer - plain flour + rhubarb + plums.
Last night we had HM meat pie + roast potatoes + cabbage, carrots + gravy.
I used 15 ozs pastry - made a medium pie and 8 individual ones - so 14 portions. I sprinkled garlic granules on the pie tops. Left over pastry made 2 garlic twists.



Needed a quick easy meal tonight. We had HM Spinach Quiche + potatoes + barbecue baked beans and the garlic twists I made. Also had one of DD's home grown tomatoes.

Hey guy's

Hope you all took advantage of the twix glitch.

Been cooking for my grandma today, so no food in or out.

Flo your pies look great and I now want my own, dp you think I could get away with using ready made short crust in a muffin tin? Is that how you did yours? I know you prob made your own pastry though.

I did make the pastry and used a muffin tin. Shop pastry would work.

Florenceem:- your pies look great. I'm all for batch cooling and freezing, saves time in the long run. I tend to use a lot of 'gluts' from the garden, working my way through crab apples at the moment.

Out:- lamb neck, only got enough to make one Lancashire hotpot and partly cooked pudding rice - just need to finish it, DH likes jam on the top but I've run out so will make do with stewed blackberries and sugar - he probably wont notice the difference.

In:- 2 x YS trout fillets and YS loaves of bread

need to go and have a look at my meal plan for the week to see if I can make better use of the trout instead of something else.

Was wondering the same! Maybe they are all living happily ever after after the holiday

Good to see you back after your food poisoning!

Flo - LOVE the look of those mini pies! May have a go myself if I can think of a suitable veggie pie filling (maybe a puy lentil/winter veg or mushroom or something).

I got a bit overwhelmed with food from both the allotment and Ocado orders and having flu I wasn't cooking so much. Getting things back under control now - mostly been having tofu stir fries this week to use lots of veg. Nothing used up except 1 lot of rice but had already bought a replacement packet.
