    I lost track a bit over the weekend too but do recall more going in the freezer than came out :rotfl: – the curse of CFO

    Out – turkey mince, tomato sauce, 2 bread rolls, magnum x 3 :o

    In – 2 portions chicken curry, portion of boiled rice, sliced mushrooms, 2 portions baked beans, 2 portions turkey chilli, 6 rashers bacon.

    Used up – grated carrot, shredded cabbage, onions, nectarines x 3

    I need to focus on the fresh & fridge stuff this week = feta, halloumi, courgettes, new potatoes, tomatoes, cucumber, apricots, watermelon, yoghurt, cottage cheese – I feel a Greek themed week coming on :D

    From the 10th July - end of 16th July, I am using up "food stocks" to hopefully assist another challenge that I am doing (health-related). Foods being used are mainly what I have plentiful amounts of ("gluts").


    I used up quite a lot of the "glut" food but am still working upon others. Mostly used up were cucumbers given to me, previously batch cooked protein based recipes, "yellow-sticker" packets of tofoo and "yellow-sticker" packets of nori sheets. Also, dressings, sauces and pastes given to me.


    (Inconclusive whether the seven days assisted with my personal health goals).

    Did some baking as it was cooler, so a few things used from stock and a tray of flapjack and some raspberry buns produced.

    Finished 1 tin condensed milk (2 left now), pack of eggs, punnet of raspberries, GF sponge cake mix.

    As I wanted to have the oven on I nipped to T*sco and so a GF pizza came IN and then was OUT.

    Out to lunch today with OH, my bestie and her OH to celebrate her birthday today.
