Just had a large pan full of yellow sticker leek, potato and parsnip soup. Cost of ingredients used was approximately 15p.
Sliced leeks were 10p per bag last night, parsnips 10p per bag last week and potatoes were 10p for 2.5 kilos last month. Threw in some oats (75p per kilo) to thicken, half a chicken stock cube (43p per dozen) and a dash of pepper. Best soup I've had in ages and the good news is I still have loads of potatoes, parsnips and another bag of sliced leeks left. Same again tomorrow, unless I find a few more ingredients in the reduced section this evening...Saved over £20K in 20 years by brewing my own booze.

Stir fry tonight, tomorrow will be some kind of veggie pie that I bought in Ald! last week with roast spuds and cabbage. I am also going to cook a veggie chilli for Monday night (always better the next day).
I've also cooked a roast chicken and a hairy bikers lamb hotpot today.

There were a few things in the fridge needed to be used up, so we had tapas. I also made some meatballs (Aldi now do a minced pork and beef) I squelched the mince up with some chopped chorizo and used a jar of Aldi Spanish chicken sauce. We had it with some bread, olives,cheese, prawns, Spanish omlette and salad. Made a nice change.0

We had our cooked meal at lunchtime today - HM wedges, LO gammon and fried eggs.
Also made 2 large pumpkin pies this evening. Got loads of "mixture" left in the fridge so could probably make 2-3 more tomorrow if I can be bothered to make more pastry!
Also got half the roast pumpkin left which I will make into soup.0 -
I shall be making Goulasch Soup for lunch for a c of days and have defrosted some YS stewing steak pieces so will be making a slow cooker stew with them for supper and topped with mashed potato for a pie tomorrow. I found a flan tin baking tin in the charity shop yesterday and made a sponge base and filled it with blueberries and some of the grape jelly I made a few weeks ago to have as pudding for the next few days too.0
