Use it up! Don't throw it in the bin!

I have so many containers of leftovers its a job to get anything else in freezer. its so handy when I fancy a few roast potatoes or bubble and squeek or a bowl of soup. I have to write down a list of whats in the inside and out freezers as i can never remember. Lucky OK eats whatever I put in front of him even though I do put together some odd meals.

HM Pizza is great for using up odds and ends, your cooked chicken would have stretched a long way on one of my pizzas with some veg, onion and HM tomato sauce. Kids love it and it is really filling.

Any chance of the recipe for that ? Do you use yeast dough ? what is the secret HM sauce or am I being really thick ?

Sausage rolls!

If you don't have enough meat then add some veggies and then make sausage rolls!

Very yummy!

Morning all,

Watched The Hour on STV last night and saw this really interesting feature to help you make recipes from leftovers and half your weekly shopping bill.

The episodes are on the STV's The Hour website

Enjoy!

i had a few leftover uses lately:) monday i bought some reduces chickens, £1.09 each roasted one, had sandiches for tea me and hubby, he then has 2 days worth of sandwiches for work, a chicken curry for our tea and a big pot of leek & potato soup which i boiled up the bones for stock so also has bits of chicken in it too!

Where I was working on Tues had rast lamb, they were going to throw away all the 'bits' after carving so i asked if they would box them up for me for my dog, well when i got home there were some really big end cuts so i cut them up a bit more and have made a minty lamb pie filling plus still some left so that can be frozen.

I make lots of soups etc as does everybbody else but am also happy to have some weird combinations of food! Also, my mom bought us the tefal actifry - brilliant! so cheap to have chips and dont have to feel guilty as there is so little fat in them!

I do know i have some hashbrowns, burgers and some fish in butter sauce in the freezer so poss another strange tea comingg up!

As this has fallen from the front page of OS, I'll add it to the existing leftovers thread, where others may be interested
