I have the following in my kitchen:

Diced beef, potatoes, parsnips, lemon grass, half a lemon, half a lime, pasta, rice, stock cubes, herbs, spices, pasatta...

What can i make?

I also have other meat such as turkey mince, chicken breast in the fridge too.

Shepherd's pie seems most obvious as the potatoes will go off before pasta or pasta bake if you can't be arsed to peel spuds. Just because you have lemongrass and half a lime doesn't mean you have to use them...

I would do a slow cooker chunky beef chilli for tomorrow to have with the rice, and have roasted chicken breast, roast parsnips and potatoes tonight.

Cottage pie with the beef, potatoes, stock and herbs and roasted parsnips on the side. Then a pasta sauce with the passata and herbs and pasta for tomorrow. I can’t see how you would use all that you have just in one dish.

Interested in this thread?

I would be doing the turkey mince with the lemon grass and lime and hopefully you also have garlic, ginger a bonus, chilli (flakes will do) and soy or any Thai curry paste left over. Serve with rice and if you have any other veggies kicking around such as broccoli, cabbage, spring onions.

Springtime pasta meatballs with the turkey mince lemon or lime and pasta www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/springtime-spaghetti-meatballs use milk if no cream

Beef shredded and made into cottage pie topped with potato and parsnip mash

Chicken and passata allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/15139/chicken-and-tomato-pasta.aspx serve with rice if no more pasta

Bash the chicken, coat in egg/flour/breadcrumbs and fry. Serve with squeeze of lemon and chips.

Massaman curry with the beef and potatoes? Chicken satay with rice? Pasta with either rich beef ragu or a lighter one with the turkey mince? Or lemon chicken pasta, or sticky lemon/lime chicken (Chinese style) with rice? A traybake with the chicken, potatoes and parsnips with wedges of cooked lemon?

@nikiqwerty I imagine the op decided what to make seeing as they posted this nearly 2 years ago, so no need for your advertising link

Those parsnips will be a bit floppy by now.
