Chestnut rissoles
Quorn mince
Turned some of the bread into breadcrumbs this week and I have made 18 chestnut rissoles.
The tofu has been used in a green thai curry for tomorrow.
Pastry used for coconut tarts and jam tarts.
I have to confess that I have purchased the quorn mince today. My excuse for that is that I have two houseguests who arrived in the early hours and I think they might like this in a meal this week but no idea what to make with it. I've also bought tomatoes which they like and I don't. Maybe some sort of cottage pie with onions and peas and serve with tomatoes. Perhaps I should have bought some dressing for a salad - also have too much cucumber.
New freezer ordered but no delivery date as yet.
My houseguests have bought loads of food and my fridge freezer and cupboards are bulging...but they've made me some lovely food tonight.
I have no idea what I will do if I get a call to say my new fridge freezer is being delivered.
All these months running my freezer down....:oNot Rachmaninov
