Cooking Tonight #5

Nicos, maybe a silly question, if you freeze crumble does it freeze as a solid block or can you take out as much as you need at any time??

Just give it a gentle thump and it becomes ‘crumbly’ again , so yes - as much as you need. And no need to defrost it either.

I live and learn. You can teach an old dog new tricks.

^^^ enjoy!

Glad to be of assistance!…you’ve shared loads of useful advice, so thank YOU!

Not sure about tonight. Certainly something with spaghetti squash as I’ve some needing using up…unless I freeze it?

I’ve got a pork casserole on the go, roasted veg, and a leek and turkey quiche, and I’ve already made the bread and butter pudding for the weekend. No jam, but loads of apple and raisins and cinnamon in a cream based eggy milk.

So, as I don’t want to tuck into any of those…I need to put my thinking cap on for tonight.
Possibly something simple like mushrooms on toast. Followed by fresh fruit salad and yog.

Tonight a sort of prawn salad/large prawn cocktail with bread and butter. I'll go and make some mayonnaise shortly to turn into Marie Rose sauce to put over it.

Tinned peaches and cream.

Store bought cheese patties on bread cobs with salad and sauté potatoes.

Gf!…yes!
Prawn and avacado tumble salad it is. Decision made.
Thanks for the inspiration…best go and get them out of the freezer…*tootles off ….

Our usual Saturday tagliatelle, bol, garlic bread, pesto and parmesan.

I've got as far as deciding on a joint of gammon for tonight. I'm not sure what we're going to have with it. Potatoes Dauphinois or couscous or jacket potatoes or jacket sweet potatoes or even rice. Hot veg or salad? Plenty time to decide though.

I'll pop an Eve's pudding in the oven at the side of the gammon. We haven't had one since last Winter.

Roast chicken, veg and hasselback potatoes in the marmite.
