    Or freeze it until you have a recipe you do want to use, I successfully freeze woopsied cheeses, and the higher fat content the more successful.

    And over-ripe brie is Lurvly IMHO, I would take the use by date with a pinch of the proverbial. ;)

    Hi lucielle,

    There's an earlier thread with lots of ideas that should help so I've added your post to it to keep the suggestions together.

    Just found 2 packs in the fridge ...

    DH did buy them to use on sandwiches but for the next 2 weeks everything will be tight moneywise so I am rather reluctant to let him use them just for sandwiches when they could go into a main meal, but I have absolutely no idea what I could do with them, I have done a search and cannot find anything so just wondering if any of you wonderful people could give me ideas.


    Thank you so much.. x

    You could have brie (and grape) sandwiches with soup for your main meal :D Otherwise take a look at this thread. I'll merge this later to keep ideas together.

    A really nice lunch or light meal which I enjoy with brie, is some nice granary or wholemael bread, toasted under the grill, then topped with some nice sliced tomatoes and grilled for a minute or two, then the sliced brie over the top sprinkled with black pepper and grilled until slightly melted, served with a large mixed salad or grilled veg, like courgettes, red onion, peppers and garlic. I know it is a kind of sandwich, but much much nicer and more substantial!

    stuff chicken breast with it, and wrap them in bacon. oven roast for 20 mins and serve with veg. It could also be melted into a pasta dish perhaps.
