Yesterday we went shopping to York which is a good hours drive away from where we live and on the way back, we turned left instead of right at a t-junction which caused Mr Frugal to mutter a few choice words under his breath and the kids to squeal in delight when they saw a sign for a pick your own strawberry farm.Their squeals meant that we didn't turn back as Mr Frugal wanted to but that we carried on down what seemed to be the longest road ever to find the farm. We eventually found it about five miles down the road but they'd closed down the pick your own fruit side of the farm last … [Read more...]
Yummy chicken and cheese wrap with a sweet Summer salad….
This week's #BetterWithLeerdammer campaign is definitely making for some interesting lunches and today was no different as we had chicken and cheese wraps which I controversially served with a sweet Summer salad. The flavour combinations are not something I would have thought of but I really enjoyed it, as did everyone else. It also encouraged Master Frugal who is a fussy eater at the best of times to try cold chicken - something he's never done before which may not seem like much to you but to me, it was HUGE!The sweet Summer salad was made up of lettuce, mango, strawberries, avocado … [Read more...]
Parenting at it’s very best: Do as I say and not as I do….
Here’s an interesting fact about me: I’ve never tried coffee!(OK, so I lied about it being an interesting fact but it’s necessary for you to know for the rest of this post so let’s pretend you found it fascinating.)When I say that I’ve never tried coffee, I really mean it – I haven’t even had a nibble of the delicious looking coffee cake they serve in the café near where I live and I certainly haven’t tried any drink containing it in any form.So when Mr Frugal ordered a Baileys Latte when we were on holiday I obviously didn’t even consider trying it, no matter how many times he … [Read more...]
Gorgeous cheese and pesto toasted baguette….
I wan't sure about the recipe I had in mind to share with you for today's #BetterWithLeerdammer sandwich idea but basically, I just served it to Mr Frugal for his tea and he loved it which is high praise from someone who's quite fussy with his food normally!Today's cheese and pesto toasted baguette is the simplest sandwich ever but it tastes delicious! All I did was cut a baguette in half and spread a layer of pesto on the bread before adding two slices of Leerdammer Light. I popped it under the grill until the cheese had melted and then spooned a little more pesto on the top before … [Read more...]
Amazing Cheese and Tuna Crunch Sandwiches….
I'm back today with another #BetterWithLeerdammer sandwich recipe for you all to try for lunch and today's is a delicious cheesey tuna crunch sandwich. We've just had this for our lunch and I can't believe how much we all enjoyed it. It just shows you that a simple tuna sandwich can be so much more with just a few quick additions.If you missed yesterdays post then you probably won't know what I'm going on about when I say that my recipe is #BetterWithLeerdammer but basically, I've been challenged by Leerdammer team to create a different sandwich for every day this week as part of their … [Read more...]
Mexican style cheese wrap with homemade salsa….
A couple of years ago I was trying to recreate a continental style breakfast like they do in hotels (can't for the life of me remember why though) and I came across a cheese in our local supermarket that looked a lot like the cheese you get served with so I picked up a packet.The cheese was Leerdammer and we enjoyed it that much that it's a regular in my shopping trolley now. It's brilliant to have in as it's so versatile - it's gorgeous on burgers, in a sandwich, melted in a toastie and even melted on top of chips on occasions.I'm not great at describing how things taste but if you … [Read more...]
