    If you've got eggs and veg that needs using up, I'd be tempted by omelettes.

    Unfortunately I dnt like omelettes. Only have 1 egg. I have never done savory pancakes before as I have always had them as a pudding but hubby has said you can and I'm trying to incorporate his ideas more (newly wedds and still finding our feet). We are out this evening and I want a plan of a quick meal to do when we get back in to avoid a trip to Macy D's

    No freezer movements.
    Been up since 6.30am and spent 9 hours looking after 3 year old DGS - I am exhausted!
    Quick easy meal - sausage roll + baked beans + whoops plain naan bread - brushed with oil & sprinkled with garlic granules.
    Bed soon.

  • Mr SharonD101 decided we should dine out tonight so nothing out of freezer and nothing in. Having dinner at parents tomorrow so once again nothing out and nothing in.
  • I have done quite well since the shopping delivery, only bought one frozen item and we have already eaten that.

    Also used up some chicken and chilli portions.

    I made pasties tonight from scratch, first time ever but they came out awesome, have shoved a few in the freezer, dont think they will be in there long

    For savoury pancakes I normally just make some bolognese sauce and put that in the pancake.

    I would have thought you could just melt some cheese and ham or do a creamy sauce with the mushrooms and onions. I suppose it's too late for you now but just some ideas for a future day.
