Didn’t ’cook it’ today but some assembly work for the emergency pannier food.
A couple of @vernplum’s YOU *LAAAAAG noodles and a couple of rice pots vacuum packed to take up less space. Let’s hope that emergency food stays in the pannier

Almost without fail when travelling Mr SSOAP will say he fancies marmalade and do I have any marmalade?
Of course I don’t carry a jar of marmalade and even if I did mayonnaise is the only bread friendly grease in the pannier. Mayonnaise and marmalade, yum yum

I realised that what with ghee being stored at ambient temperature and surviving in Indian sun providing I could portion it up and seal it would be safe in my pannier.
I bought a brand that tends to be more solid and I tried a thin spread on a piece of bread in place of butter and unsurprisingly it worked well.
Used a small icecream scoop, froze the balls and vacuum sealed them.
Bet Mr SSOAP doesn’t ask me this time

That's a lot of ghee!

Is that deviled ham spread?

 

[TastyReuben]

Is that deviled ham spread?

Specifically, it’s ham salad, not the spicier deviled ham from a can.

That's a lot of ghee!

Isn't it. One of those scoops will do two small slices of bread.
If I have one sandwich and Mr SSOAP has his usual two then it's three scoops(ish) per round.

That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
It's definitely nothing to do with getting carried with perfecting little butter domes, nope nothing at all

"Herb de Provence" fancy pants

 

[AdaptAndAchieve]

I quick frozen lasagne (reduced saturates, so ok for me)
And just scoffed a piece of my new cake

 

[medtran49]

Found some frozen, fully cooked, pre sliced, halal gyro meat when shopping, so bought it. Used a third of it tonight with homemade pita and tzatziki, with red onion and tomato garnish. Turned out pretty darn good. Still like our homemade gyro meat better, but this is a lot easier.
