Try a really sharp knife or scissors, if you are going in to the tool box a saw would work.

Thank you! I tried the sharp knife, but ended up bashing the living daylights out of the bones until they capitulated. But as a result I have a pint of lovely brown stock cooling on the side.

got some squid from asda for £2 yesterday... about 250g i think.... washed it, cut it into rings with scissors and bunged it in slow cooker with tinned tomatoes, paprika, garlic, tomato puree, mixed herbs and pepper... will be tasty with rice or couscous i hope... i was naughty and binned the tentacles that were tucked inside each squid.... i should probably have given them to the cat, but she tends to play with "real" food.....

Today i used the left over chicken carcass and added a vege stock cube, chilli, carrot, onion and water. I left those ingredients for a few hours then took out the roughly chopped onion and carrot. Took out the bones of the chicken making sure i took all the meat off. Then i added noodles and HG courgette.

Next time i would add sweetcorn if i had any!!

Yesterday i made mince tomatoes etc so i am getting lots of use out of the slow cooker already.

Soup today. Bunged some potatoes, carrots and onion in with some stock and chilli flakes. I might make some bread later to go with it.

Lamb stew, made with a pack of diced lamb going cheap in Sainsburys, onion, carrots, potato, rosemary, leftover cherry tomatoes and red lentils. Smells yummy!

Ive tried to save some veg and thought id incorporate them in tonight's tea. In my slow cooker I have diced chicken, onion, stock, herbs, yellow pepper and mushrooms. It wasnt till later I though this a rather odd combination. Not even sure what i was planning to serve this with. (I was thinking along the lines of pie until I added the yellow pepper) can I get this to work?

Thanks
