Waaaaade-a-minute! Mint sauce... and cheese?!

No, Cerys... no!

Mint and dairy work together on another level. Try putting a couple of Polo's in your mouth and taking a swig of milk.

It'd probably work better if the milk was in chocolate milkshake form.

To save money I'm going to prepare my lunches for work at home rather than buying things from shops and fast food places.

But I just realised that during the 2 hour period in the evening when I usually eat dinner, I'll be on a train.

Does anyone have any ideas on what I could put together at home that would keep until the evening? I'd like to have a decent meal, even if I have to eat it on the train, but I'm starting to think I'll be eating a sandwich and a bag of crisps.

If you've got access to a microwave at work then you could do your pasta/stew/curry/chunky soup etc to take in and eat at lunchtime and then have the sandwiches on the train home.

Cobbler Kedgeree!

Kedgeree:  it's not just for breakfast!

Cobbler:  it's not just because smoked cod loin is endangered and too expensive*!

My take on an English breakfast. Cooked in the oven, rather than grilled or fried.

Sausages, potatoes, mushrooms, 1/2 beefsteak tomato, baked beans, toast.

I put a thin slice of lemon on top of the tomato and the juices when cooking mix wonderfully. I also add Tabasco sauce and a little diced onion to the baked beans for some bite.

Seeing as the cold weather has arrived, courtesy of Taiwan's typhoon, figure it's about time to bust out the nabe. It's essentially a Japanese stew, an absolutely fucking stellar meal in the winter months.

Bit of pork, chicken, tofu, spinach, leek, Japanese cucumber, mushroom. Boil it up, sesame sauce for dipping, then when that's been consumed, throw some udon into the broth.

Oh it's good.

Defrosted one of my bottles of Spinach and Watercress soup last night, had it for lunch today.

Extra salt and pepper in the saucepan. Lightly toasted bread, buttered, for dunking.  Served in a big mug. Gorgeous.

You should've just put the bottle in the oven and had it straight. You la-di-da salt and pepper ponce.

Am I the only person, who whenever they see this thread title, want to post the single word reply, "SPAM".

It was an empty Diet Coke bottle. Really?

I've been eating raw potatoes this week. Grrr.
