Stupid thing is, his 'For-One' range was £1.30 each :-?

I am still in the office sorting things for trip next week - so Indian restaurant tonight about 8pm - my wife is very predicatable so she will order chicken shaslik - I will order anything that is unlikely to give me a sore bum

And now I'm back home, the pizza is calling me.. even though I know, I know, I really really should not have pizza again. For the fifth time this week, and 12th time this month.

Meatballs and pasta. From here it's time to empty the freezer so I'm looking forward to some very odd culinary concoctions over the coming three weeks or so.
-
Had pasta for lunch so will eat less for dinner - which will be two pieces of good seed bread toasted, half an avocado (which is in very good order I have to say), squeeze of lemon, sprinkle of black pepper and a few shavings of fresh parmesan (also in good order).
Followed by a few pieces of fresh fruit and some green tea and that's my lot to breakfast tomorrow morning.
-
grilled goats cheese on toasted french bread, side of roquette and all drizzled with balsamic.
I had a rather large lunch ;D

homemade bombay potatoes,
fresh chicken diced then cooked in a mixture of Balti and roganjosh curry sauces, and wholemeal pitta bread :y

Got in late from a Basildon run, very nearly phoned the Indian but looked round the kitchen first & made Corned beef hash, 2 eggs on top & boiled some cauliflower as i bought it reduced to 20p!!!

roast parsnips, waffles, processed peas, and a quorn thing pretending to be a lamb steak! I've recently become vegetarian, and this stuff tastes quite good! Better than chicken nuggets and sausages anyway!

Stick at it Mark, it's worth the slog, you're doing the right thing. Leave the ready made sauces out, use tinned toms & add mixed herbs, a squirt of tom puree, garlic granules an oxo cube & a drop of oil with chopped onion, salt & pepper to make your own sauce, cheaper & way healthier (no additives). As Cem said incorporate any veggies you can.
Many years ago when on a tight budget my weekly shop consisted of pasta, tinned tuna or mackerel, frozen petit pois peas (chuck a handful in anything, still do it now) healthy but cheap cereal like weetabix & fresh milk. Bananas are cheap & if you had to exist on any one food & water bananas would keep you going the longest compared to any other single food, loaded with vitamins & high in potassium. Guy. :y

I love living up here but i miss pie & mash shops. Not too fussed about the pie but the mash & liquor is to die for. :(
-

I like crumpets too with real butter all melted on top.... yum yum :y

I've not tried any OXO cubes in my dinners yet, I keep meaning to make some slow cooker meals. Mother T bought me one of those slow cookers, been told they are super easy just got to get myself together and make something!

she actually took it back once because it "tastes fishy" ::)
genius she was.
true story :y

I've not tried any OXO cubes in my dinners yet, I keep meaning to make some slow cooker meals. Mother T bought me one of those slow cookers, been told they are super easy just got to get myself together and make something!
I bought one of those a while back - haven't actually used it yet, though (although I did at least unpack it).. Sadly I think it may end up like the steamer (in a cupboard!) :(
Theoretically easy .. but who gets up early enough to get it all ready in the morning?
Then again, on the basis that I never have anything in the house that's edible beside frozen food and cereal (not milk, you notice, because that goes off..) .. :-X
i've never met anyone who eats marrow :y
I used to .. my parents were big growers of vegetables at one point or another in their lives, and they'd grow these enormous tasteless watery monstrosities..
I have to say, though, that once you scoop out most of the insides and fill it with flavoured stuff like mince with vegetables & curry powder.. it wasn't bad at all.
