Another nsd here today :j The home made instant oat pot was lovely with a pinch of cinnamon and a handful of mixed dried fruit for lunch today

Tomorrow won't be a nsd as I am going to stock up on the Lidl deal on potatoes and I also need milk and toilet roll.
I'm also almost out of onions but everywhere seems really expensive for them, over 90p a kilo! :eek: I'll check lidl price while I'm there.

On the black pudding subject, it is your posts about using it in yorkshire puddings that has made me buy a roll Flo. I'll be pleased to get 8 meals for that price :T

You cut 4/5 thin slices for 1st meal - with baked beans, mushrooms, eggs, tomatoes, toast, LO pots etc - 2 servings.
The rest of the black pudding - cut into thicker slices and then into chunks - use as sausages in the batter for BPITH. Make a 2 egg Yorkshire batter mix - I use a ceramic dish from - 99p shop - gives you 6 servings.

Thankyou :T I bought it a couple of days ago in home bargins and I'll be making my meal plan tomorrow night to use it. The kids love tith and they love bp so this should be a winner, I'll let you know how it goes

NSD here.
We had HM Salmon Quiche + HM wedges + roasted red onion, white onion & tomatoes. I had some lovely cooking juices left in the dish so tipped it on the veggies - yummy.

CP - don't worry - 20 isn't too bad. Did you stock up on items? Or is it treats and BOGOFs?
