Pyxis Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 Where's the cheapest place to get mushrooms? I currently get the loose ones from Sainsburys for around £2.50 a kilo.

That's a lotta damn mushrooms! If you have local markets sometimes they can be a tad cheaper, but its really here nor there for how much you buy.
Ashley Posted February 3, 2010 Posted February 3, 2010 I may make myself a birthday cake this weekend (Loooooooooser!) just because we happen to have flour in the house all of a sudden. Chocolate and/or jam-based cake recipes?

Chocolate and/or jam-based cake recipes? Heh, I'm thinking of doing the same thing, as I'm all alone. Let's be losers together! Not sure what to make yet though. Will probably end up making nothing at all heh.

But... you're a student!! I'm more of a fan of sainsuburies basics though. 19p!!!! I made an egg fried rice earlier which, not gonna lie, was pretty stunning. Lacking a photo though. I might upload one I took earlier of a flatmates cup of tea with mould growing on it. A little disguisting.

I'll take a picture with my phone but don't have any way of getting it on my pc. I could text it to somebody if they knew how. EDIT: It weighs 1.594Kg if that gives you an idea of size.

Ashley Posted February 4, 2010 Posted February 4, 2010 Not for the salmon though Tonight I made...something. I was going to do some kind of wrap thingys that I usually make but accidentally left the wraps in the oven (to defrost) for too long so they were already crispy. So instead I put one at the bottom, put a crap load of filling on top, then one on the top. So it was like some kind of mexican pizza/sandwich. Good though

Eenuh Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Friends and I made fooooood. First starters: Smoked salmon roll with garlic/herbs cream cheese, cucumber roll with same cheese and tiny tomatoes with the cheese. Then half a peach with some tuna cocktail mix and mozarella with basil and tomato. Vegetable lasagna (carrots, red onion, garlic, courgette, red bellpepper, tomato-basil pasta sauce, ricotta with red pesto and grated parmesan and then mozarella on top). Chocolate mousse with whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles. Also made a low fat banana milkshake but don't have a picture of it sadly. It was ok, but I preferred the other unhealthy food. =P
S.C.G Posted February 5, 2010 Author Posted February 5, 2010 Nice food Ine Today for lunch I had... Vegetable Bean-Burger on Toast Tasted rather good actually.
Eenuh Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Mmm veggie burger. I made a fruit blend of two apples, a golden kiwi, a prune and two bananas. Added in a tiny bit of orange juice and some biscuits (which contain passion fruit stuff too). It may look horrible but it tastes soooo nice.
Ashley Posted February 5, 2010 Posted February 5, 2010 Eenuh I hope you don't mind but I've decided I'm coming to live with you.
