help please!

Slow cooker at the ready..........I have casserole beef........potatoes.....a bit of carrot/brocolli/cauli......would like to make some sort of stew but have never ever been successful at stews/casseroles!

Please could I have some hints on how much liquid/ herbs/flavourings.......or maybe even leaving out the potatoes and doing something that could be eaten with pasta (goulasch?)

want to leave it cooking overnight- slow cooker has 'low' 'high' 'warm' in that order !

thanks elite xxx

I love this recipe for goulash, goes really well with cheese & bacon scones. The ingredients can be swapped, but it gives you an idea of how much seasoning and such to add. Hope that helps

Right, I think!

I have a new toy to play with, so I'll see you a little later!:)

Goodnight:D:wave::j

That is so funny apart from the reality that someone did poo in freezer isle at my local Mr S several months ago. I over heard staff talking about it. :rotfl:

That's just slightly worse than the well endowed lady I saw in Asda on a particularly hot day last summer......leaning over a freezer with her assets IN the freezer.
It was hilarious. Her friend said to her 'what you doing shell' she said 'Im sweating my t**s off here, man' :eek::eek::rotfl::rotfl:

I had forgotten about that, I might well have reported it on here at the time :rotfl:

Very similar to Bzz Agent, but done by T's. Fill in a load of surveys in the hope of getting invited to campaigns to get freebies and money off coupons for you and your 'friends and family'

What a lovely smile you have.

I bought some digital tampons in here last week but I can't work out how to plug them in.

Someone's just done a poo in aisle 3.

For the avoidance of doubt, I am not advocating actually doing the third option beforehand.
