I also love the Aldi grains. I used the morrocan buckwheat one as a base for a vegetarian pie, fried up some mushrooms, grated carrot mixed it with a packet and topped with sweet potato mash for my daughter.
Must have been good because it made an appearance on Instagram.
Ohh yum - was it 'just' those ingredients you used? My OH is veggie but very bad at actually liking veg, plus does long hours so doesn't want to spend any time cooking when he gets home, so I'm constantly trying to come up with creative things he'll eat :think:
Tonight I had a no bull burger, boiled pots and petit pois...OH had a pot noodle (I know.....:eek:....but to be fair I had bought it as a treat so it was going to be eaten at some stage)
Have just reshuffled the freezer so my friends things are more or less on one (bottom) shelf now with a few bits on another shelf and I can sort of see / get to what is actually our food. Once she collects her stuff there's going to be a lot of freezer space - but it's good making me use what we have without trying to buy more.
I have some spinach and feta pastry things from Lidl last summer to use up but last time OH cooked some they weren't properly cooked which as some what put me off them - think he put them in for 20mins and they should take 35-40! :eek:Feb 2015 NSD Challenge 8/12JAN NSD 11/16

Kerri, i sauteed some onions and mushrooms added grated carrot and then the packet of bulger wheat mix. I'm sure it would take some additional bits. To be honest I was going to use tinned lentils but didn't have any and remembered a few years ago making a vegetarian chilli using buckwheat which was fab.
I topped with mashed sweet potato and a small bit of ordinary mash mixed in. I had some, but topped mine with cheese.
I baked it in the oven.
Tonight away with work I have had takeaway pizza and salad from a well known chain. It was surprisingly tasty.0 -
Had miso yellowfin tuna steak in a bento style with Japanese accompaniments. Eaten using chop sticks.0

Last night I sauteed the left over veg in the fridge drawer with onion, garlic, paprika, chilli, s&p, Worcester sauce, vegan kebab Oumph and rice. Tasted smashing, fed 4 adults, cost about £1 a head. Also made my own oat milk (£1.40 in shops, 10p homemade with no carton, carbon emissions and nothing to recycle).0
