Crap - I’ve ordered four red cabbage dishes - how can I not waste it?

One frozen and three ‘fresh’ ready meal style. I can only imagine they were on a 3 for 2 and was rushing to checkout the order and didn’t get the other two. Or maybe I did the thing where I repeatedly ‘remembered’ to pop it in my Tesco.com basket...

Anyways... put some on the kids plates today, next to the fish fingers and chips, and they won’t even bloody touch it. I thought I liked it - but the monolithic mountain of it in my fridge is off putting...

Saving one punnet for Christmas lunch - what can I use up the rest on...? Pie.... ? Very red sandwiches ...? Erm.....

Freeze it.

Is it raw cabbage? Makes a lovely coleslaw.

Snails - but even frozen I’d need a plan to use it up! Nothing worse than the freezer graveyard!

Xmas - no it’s ready meal style with apple and red wine and saucy stuff. If it was raw, I’d soup it!

If you really don't like it then it's probably best chucked out. I don't think there's much you could do with it.

Give it away...

XmasPostmanBos · 20/12/2018 20:49

Might make a nice lunch with some bacon or ham or sausages and a baked potato.

Send it back

I have considered putting a shout out on the class WhatsApp group for someone to take it - but I don’t think I’d live it down!

It’s okay in taste - just farrr too much if the kids won’t eat it...

Put it on olio.

Oh yes! Of course! I’ll do that!
