1.Cheese

  1. Those mini frozen cocktail sausage rolls (they’re cheap and gross but I’m obsessed with them!)
  2. Pringles
  3. Gammon
  4. French bread baguette

That way I can also have cheese on bread (Brie or Boursin etc or make a gammon sandwich)

Pate

I’m pregnant so the wine, most of the cheese, pate and rare beef are off the menu. Sad

I do however have a shed load of bread and smoked salmon in!
