Hi,
This isn't a debt related issue, but tonight I thought ablout what I had in the fridge and whst I was going to eat - a common problem for us all.
Anyway to cut a long storey short I remembered an old recipie I used to love:
Leeks wrapped in ham with cheese sauce - I've just eaten and it was super!!
Par boil leeks (one leek feeds one big person)
Drain and wrap in ham (thin cut is good and cheap)>
Place in a casserole dish and cover with cheese sauce (packet or home made - whatever your preference)
Sprinkle with grated cheese - you can be sparing
Cook in the oven till golden brown.
I had mine with boiled potatoes and veg - it was lovely!!
Happy cooking everyone, hope you like the recipie,
Hugs,
Chardonnay

Mmmm......sounds lush, only thing is there's only me likes leeks, the other 4 would definately turn there noses up at it.

[:)]
Maybe if you cut them small enough they won't know what they're eating??!! Just say it's vegetable!! My other half doesn't really like leeks and he enjoyed it!!
Good luck and I'm sure i'll be on again with some of my mum's good old Irish ecipies!!
Hugs,
Chardonnay

Bleugh, leeks!!!

Seriously I'm glad you enjoyed it Chardonnay. We had grilled chicken, potatoes and peas tonight - Dave cooked it and it was yummy!

Hi Chard, that's sounds yummy, but that's not going to increase my 3st 2lb weight loss is it???? [:D][:D] Leeks are fine, its the sauce and grated cheese I would have to worry about, but glad you enjoyed it. Wish I could eat that sort of thing [:(] Kazzy x

sounds yummy...i love veggie stuff...but would miss meat if went total vegetarian...may try this out

Sounds nice... I know this may sound stupid but could we keep a thread going and share ideas around!?! I have a few i can share!!

My kids can sniff out a vegetable from 100yards!!! They won't touch them, even if they are in disguise.....they say I infect everything with onions and mushrooms......complete lies!!!
Peas and sweetcorn are the nearest things to veg they tolerate.....

i have an allotment and my kids love home grown stuff, but hate shop bought

mmm love leeks.. we're going to put a veg patch in garden!! well try

If you want to keep your weight down Kazzy ... just contact all yer creditors and ask them to start hassling you again.[}:)][}:)]

Love leeks Chardonnay - I'll have to get hubby to do that!

I'm on late shift today, so it's a home made mince curry for me with a flatbread.

Quickie day for us as both working, so steak pie and a few chips, then salad at work around 1am both on nights as always.

Toad in the hole I think for tea tonight...the weather's awful again so need some hearty, warming food inside. Followed by a home-made cherry cake.....I think the lap-top has water damage now with all my dribbling.....
