    I would cook it up with lots of chopped veg and then cool and use as filling in some pies. If careful with the meat and heavy handed with the veg you should get 2 or 3 pies which can be frozen.

    Toad in the hole is one of my cheap and filling dinners. Baked potatoes with baked beans and cheese is another.
