Eating out of the freezer and cupboards challenge - part two

Since 29/10/17 -

My mini challenge is currently just two "old" freezer items to use up.

This weeks online (food) grocery shopping was more or less centered around a milk order and also preparing for winter. October 2017 food purchases were over budget although many of these will last many months.

In: 2 tubs homemade passatta, three portions beef & gravy
Out: crumpets, crusty roll, meatballs in sauce, spaghetti

caronc

In: nothing
Out: muffin, herby roll, root veg mash, sausages

Hello lovelies,

Does anyone have any leftover Gammon ideas?

I've got about 600g of the stuff (trimmed and lean in two lumps).

Not in the mood for pasta and already had it as a roast. Not a fan of pie/pastry as I'm trying to lose some weight for christmas...

Need to feed 4 adults plus a couple portions for lunch wouldn't go amiss. Fully stocked pantry.

Used up all the food items concerning my mini-challenge. Didn't purchase any weekend-shopping food and have been busy collecting any salad greens from the garden.

Next mini-challenge will be to use up freezer stored :-

- small coconut flour bread (1)
- savoury slices (3.5)
- portions of sandwich fillers (2) and
- a cracker-type recipe (3.5).
