Sorry, have had problems with the spam system recently, but will check.<BR/><BR/>Now as for the pasta, it so easy and has proved so popular that many of my friends have copied it and adapted it to their own taste and not just for the kids either.<BR/><BR/>I just cook up the pasta and when it's done serve it up with some chopped apple, sprinkle some raisins over it (or chopped grapes), then grate some cheddar cheese over it. The taste of the cheese with the sweetness of the fruit is heaven. :-DAlmost Mrs Averagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03566374419318255177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1140894823591123770.post-79673610464347772722008-10-03T20:16:00.000+01:002008-10-03T20:16:00.000+01:00okay, I'm being extremely curious here; whats: pas...okay, I'm being extremely curious here; whats: pasta with chopped apple, raisins and grated cheese??? how do you do that??<BR/><BR/>(by the way, did you get my mail with explanations?)estherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07643684799529816236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1140894823591123770.post-11811485268528109452008-08-11T11:54:00.000+01:002008-08-11T11:54:00.000+01:00Thanks GG - thanks for sending in your tips.

Incidentally PLEASE will people realise that bananas can be frozen and can be made into banana bread at a later date when u have the oven on anyway.(sadly, no good to eat raw after freezing) Also,since it is now all homgeonised and whatever, milk can be frozen. This is especailly useful to know when u are going away as, not only do u freeze the wee bit of milk rather than waste it, u also always come back to enough milk for that 1st breakfast back. Also, you can freeze yoghurts and again, use in cake/pudding recipes.(i can supply u with a couple) Really, in order to avoid waste, keep an eye on what you have and if u think u won't use it, freeze it. We do, however, spend a month 'eating up the freezer'. It's a bit of a variation on the tv game, ready, steady, cook and is always useful in a skint month.<BR/>ggAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1140894823591123770.post-13375962735119551912008-02-02T08:13:00.000+00:002008-02-02T08:13:00.000+00:00I've got some great news Ruby.

I use them every now and again, always end up buying extra ingredients, the remainder of which are never used! <BR/><BR/>Brilliant idea to make an effort to use up leftover food bits in the fridge - I am very guilty of binning too many of those these days.Christina Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13468272095988376050noreply@blogger.com
