New Shadow - Guess what you made me have for breakfast today? At least its a super frugal dish isnt it.:p
Wasn't me - nope. No-one here suggested any breakfasts - Don't even ever recommend breakfast. Two meals a day. That's me

Coronation chicken - Cooked chicken, Yogurt, Mango chutney, Sultanas, Curry powder (optional - diced apricots if you've got them, dash of cinnamon)That sounds like a classic case of premature extrapolation.

Totally amazing !!!
Well change of meal plan tomorrow for me. Forgot I was working late so just made a big pot of vege soup. Carrot, onion, potato, sweet potato and lentil. DH was supposed to go up the loft today to find my bread maker (I have 2 up there somewhere) but ran out of time so no HM bread as I truly suck at making it without the machine.:mad: Never mind hopefully he will find it tomorrow. I will be checking out the YS tomorrow to see if I can find anything. smoosh you've totally inspired me nowDebt free as of 29.10.2020 🎉😁

Its never failed me and it's so quick and easy - 5 minutes to throw the ingredients together in the morning, to have dough to throw in the oven as soon as i get back from work, 20 minutes later - hot, fresh, home made bread.
I had a BM but i found that the bread went really hard (enough to hammer nails) almost as soon as it went cold
That sounds like a classic case of premature extrapolation.

Mmmm... Brinner...
Scott - Sprinkle a little salt on top when you throw it in the oven. You can make them in rolls, in a loaf, or I tend to just bake on a metal tray in the round - 20 minutes at about 180/200 and flip it upside down about halfway through.
Great for tear and share.That sounds like a classic case of premature extrapolation.
