The all new using what you have from your Freezer, Cupboard or Shed (Barn)

It is probably time to have a new thread for this. What do you have in your freezer? In your cupboard/shed? Do you have a veg patch or allotment? What did you manage to store, preserve or freeze? I, myself, like to cook following a recipe, but love to add veg from my allotment!

We made the chick pea tikka again tonight and suddenly there's room in the tins cupboard! It takes three tins of chickpeas, three tins of tomatoes and a tin of coconut milk, and make 6-8 portions if I remember rightly.

I bought more rice as I had 15% off at L1dl, and I'm trying really hard not to take advantage of the same offer on lentils, as I already have about 2.5kg of them...
