When I was tidying my kitchen cupboards last weekend (in my defence, I was too ill to go out but well enough to be bored) and I found some cola flavoured jelly that I bought from Morrisons last Summer.I decided to make it up as a treat for the kids for after tea but as I boiled the kettle, I spied the hardly touched bottle of Jack Daniels that had been sitting on the shelf untouched since Christmas.I'm sure you can tell what's coming here....I made up the jelly following the instructions but didn't add as much boiling water as I was supposed to - I think I left out about 150ml … [Read more...]
Garlic and Lemon Chicken and 10 other super easy ‘dump’ recipe ideas {Batch Cooking} {Slow Cooker}….
Do you have any idea what a 'dump' recipe is?I didn't until I started researching batch cooking recipes but now, thanks to Pinterest, I can tell you that a dump recipe is a recipe that you put together in a zip-lock bag (or other container) and put in the freezer before cooking.You then get it out the night before you're ready to cook it so it's defrosted in time for when you're ready to cook it and because you've already prepared the ingredients, you don't have to do anything else other then cook it either in the slow cooker or in the oven. Lemon and Garlic Chicken 'Dump' Recipe 3 … [Read more...]
Five Ingredient Five Minute Chilli {Slimming World} {Slow Cooker} {Batch Cooking}….
It's no secret that I prefer easy, simple to prepare recipes when I'm cooking. Mainly because I seem to have very little time spare to spend in the kitchen but also because I'm a little bit lacking in the necessary kitchen skills needed to cope with complicated recipes (by complicated, I mean anything that involves more than two pans ;-)).This probably explains the love I have for my slow cooker - I get to throw everything in, give it a mix and then leave it for most of the day before serving a delicious home cooked meal.My recipe for chilli is a great example of how easy it it to … [Read more...]
Homemade Doner Kebab {Slow Cooker} {Slimming World} {Fakeaway}….
Today I'm going to share with you my amazing homemade doner kebab recipe which I'm pretty sure you're going to love as much as we love! Mr Frugal is partial to the odd Doner Kebab - usually swimming in grease and smothered in garlic sauce - and without fail, he always regrets eating it within about an hour of finishing it.So, after hearing about a version of homemade Doner Kebab that you can make in the slow cooker I decided to give it a go and see if my own version could hit the spot like the greasy kebab shop version does.I looked at lots of different versions of this … [Read more...]
Cheesey Broccoli Egg Muffins….
After last week's mini egg omelettes success I thought I'd try making them again but this time I made them with the intention of using up some broccoli and grated cheese that was left over from when I made macaroni cheese with broccoli and bacon last night. They were even more delicious than last weeks version!Don't worry, I'm not going to share a different egg muffin recipe each week - this one was too good not to share though.... Cheesey Broccoli Egg Muffins 4 eggs (beaten with a splash of milk and seasoned) Broccoli Grated cheese Leftover ham if you have someGrease a … [Read more...]
Mini Egg Omelettes – Great for breakfast on the go, Slimming World or just for a Yummy snack….
One of my favourite ways to use up leftovers is to make slow cooker fridge bottom frittata and I was planning to cook it last night for tea but clever me decided to make a batch of homemade tomato sauce when I got home from work without thinking that I'd be needing to use the slow cooker for the frittata!So instead of making one big frittata to use up some leftover bits and bobs, I decided to make mini frittatas in the oven instead and actually, now that I've made them this way I think they would be great to make for breakfasts and mini snacks as well as being great for those of you … [Read more...]
