The household lurgy has worsened and the cupboards are bare so we ordered in pizza. Once we've recovered I doubt we'll have takeaway for months...
Online order? Make some soup? Or get a chicken to put in the slow cooker like LardMan?
Me being me after getting better from the last time both adults weren't great I made up a pile of "ming dinners". For when you are full of the ming. It's just a batch made meal, I joint a chicken or portion up whatever I've got in, add cooked onion, sauce/herbs/spices and freeze in portion sizes. So all that needs done is them taken out of the freezer, defrost in the slow cooker bowl and then put on to cook at the correct time.
I do it if I see things cheap on the yellow label and I have freezer space. A chicken takes up less space when jointed in sauce in a carry out style tub than when whole. it's also easier to fit in. Same if I make too much of something or if it's a recipe that doesn't divide down well-like pulled pork. Sometimes I cook loads of onions and freeze that in portions too so a meal is faster made.

Tonight this lot are having "mince and tatties" or mince in gravy with potatoes for those that don't speak Doric. Or annoying foreigners as the Husband calls me. Why do I cook for him?
