I was glad when I discovered puy lentils. Great in a shepherds pie with sweet potato mash and cheese on top.

(with onions, celery, carrots, peppers, red wine, veg stock, lots of mushrooms, herbs and can of tomatoes)

Off the back of this thread I bought butterbeans..then forgot why and used them in my 'go to' emergency I've made no dinner veg chilli last night.
My sometimes fussy teens, who are used to most pulses, said that 'the flat beans are nice for a change but not as nice as the chickpeas!' So that's the butterbean controversy in our house now....which pulse is best? (I prefer a puy lentil myself).

Have I really missed a scrap about butter beans? Gah. I miss all the best stuff on here.

Bastard autocorrect. feta stuffed

soupforbrains · 10/09/2017 20:56

Gets stuffed olives are one of my favourite things in the entire world.

I like feta.
But then I also like banana and cheese toasties.
And fish paste and raspberry jam sandwiches.

What do I know?

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 09/09/2017 13:31

If I make the flatbreads, I might crumble some on top, with some oregano.

ChardonnaysPrettySister · 09/09/2017 13:30

I think it's safe to assume feta isn't MN's favourite cheese.

Vile, rank and boak, according to the massive. And not even cheese.

it's also lovely baked, btw

Sounds yummy. DP makes a very similar thing, but with pancetta. The DCs love it.

Dame - I made your flat bread last night. Oh. WOW.

it is so easy and was so tasty, kids couldn't get enough of it.

I don't make bread (never managed to make one tastier than a bought one).
But I do now!

I was watching the Beebs new family cook show on catch up last night and was wondering what I would cook if it was us, and basically wondering what we could make around the flat bread!

I'm going to randomly shout BUTTER BEANS at people today. Better than the MN scarf.

It's easy to tell the difference - broad beans sleep in their blankety bed; butter beans sleep under crumbled feta cheese. No need for any confusion, people.

Broad beans and cheese sauce?
