Braided rug, Are these what you actually prepare? Im curious. Is planning out a whole menu possible? It seems I change my mind alot Lol. But for the money savings part does this work? I need lots of help in the food dept. I am not a terrible cook but it seems alot of what I make gets wasted for some reason.
Would love to know how you make your:
Zucchini Pasta
Stir Fry Beef
Beef Chow Mein
Paella
Sorry for the trouble.

Apart from the pizza we did make these. My husband is the expert on the harder dishes. Our daughter helps out with the chicken balls. This month we used two bottles of stir fry sauce that were in the cupboard. It is no trouble to tell you how we make things. I have already posted the beef chow mein I think, will find a link. www.hearthandhome.proboards44.com/index.cgi?board=hearty&action=display&thread=1140173457We don't stick to the exact day, at the start of the fortnight I wait until my fruit and vegetables are delivered a few days later, so we make the things we have the ingredients for first. But mostly we do make at least 12 to 13 of the dishes I post or more. |

We ended up making our old favourite zucchini pasta recipe which is this:
Rigatoni with Zucchini
Serves 4
375g rigatoni
500g zucchini
salt
1 tablespoon oil or butter
freshly ground pepper
parmesan cheese
Cut the unpeeled zucchini into thin rounds. Sprinkle with salt and leave to drain in a colander for 1 hour.
Wipe dry, and fry gently in oil or butter until just tender.
Meanwhile, cook the rigatoni as directed. Drain and place in a heated serving dish. Pour the zucchini over and serve with grated parmesan cheese.
