" old style" meals re-visited.

THIRZAH

Steak and kidney pudding is easy to make in the slow cooker-it takes about 6-8 hours but you can leave it and don't have to worry about topping up the water.

MATH

Yorkshire puddings are as cheap as chips to make and make stew/casserole made from leftovers look more interesting. I make ginormous puds and use them as bowls to hold the casserole. Yorkies can also be served as dessert if you toss in some rubarb or apple before slamming in the oven. Jam and syrup roly poly, steamed puds, and milk puds are also cheap and dead easy.

Home made Biscuits & Flapjack

Haven't made them since school, now can't stop. Not sure whether I enjoy the smell from the oven more than the end product but keeps OH happy.

BountyHunter - what recipe do you use for the Flapjack?

I know there's a number of variations out there.

Have just had a roast chicken and have half left, excluding leg and wing.
Fancy making a chicken pie...you guys seem to mention it as a 'rubber chicken' meal, but I don't have a receipe.
Does anyone out there have one???
It's got to feed 4 children and 1/2 adults( not sure if hubby is working away) and I have no tinned soup!

Have you got any left over veggies to add to it? ... or a bag of mixed frozen, mushrooms, peas, sweetcorn etc to bulk it out?

Make a basic white sauce (butter, flour, milk) and mix in the chicken pieces and any veg and you have the perfect creamy pie filling
