Using up your leftover food can save you money as well as time so for today's round up post I thought I'd share 20 ways to turn your leftovers into a whole new meal....One of the things that makes me smile when I think about my lovely old Nana was how she could whip up a meal in the kitchen from practially nothing. There was nothing wasted and anything she didn't use for one meal was incorporated into the next one - she really knew how to work those leftovers.For years, I didn't even think about leftovers - if it wasn't eaten then it went in the bin (I know, I'm hanging my head in … [Read more...]
Homemade Pizza breadsticks
Homemade pizza breadsticks are our new favourite food - they're easy to make and you wouldn't believe how amazing they taste.We've been having regular movie nights over the last month or so which is something we haven't done in a while as we could never agree on which film to watch. We've been watching some older movies that we wanted to see with the kids because we remembered enjoying them when we first watched them way back in the day - Air Force One, Speed and the Back to the Future Trilogy have been our most recent watches!A teenager's attention span is a bit limited so rather … [Read more...]
How I organise my freezer space….
I'm going to share with you how I organise my freezer space today as an organised freezer really does help me massively with meal planning!You might (or might not) know that I actually have three freezers at the moment - one is part of the fridge freezer, one we bought as an under counter freezer for the kitchen and the third is a big larder freezer which lives in our garage and was a gift from my Dad.Fridge Freezer - Top drawerThis drawer is mainly filled with healthy food that's perfect for me as I'm on Slimming World at the moment. I have a couple of ready meals to help … [Read more...]

What we ate in a week {February 2018}….
Today I'm sharing the third post in my 'What we ate in a week' series!The plan with these posts is that I start writing this post the Monday before you read it each month and just update it each night with a photo of what we had for our tea that day. It worked pretty well so far so let's see if I'm as good this time... MondayToday we had slow cooker turkey chilli which we prefer to normal beef chilli these days. It's hard to describe the difference that using turkey mince makes to the meal but it's delicious. It's not as heavy if that makes sense. TuesdayTonight's … [Read more...]
How to make butter from cream….
Have you ever tried making homemade butter from cream? I hadn't until recently but now that I have, I'm a huge fan!I don't know about you but I often come across yellow stickered cream in the supermarket reduced section at the end of the day but I tend to just leave it there because I'm unsure how well it freezes and I had no idea what else to do with it to use it up on the day I buy it. I can't be the only one because cartons of double cream are a regular in the reduced section in our supermarket and it's often reduced massively - maybe because it's something that's often left on … [Read more...]
