When you don't feel like cooking?

I came across the thread about discontinued food from M&S and since I've never tried their ready meals, I'm keen to give them a shot for dinner.

They used to do a wonderful lobster with lemon dressing. No way I can afford it now even if they still do,sigh

Completely not helpful, but their cheese tasters are the food of the Gods. Wotsits are very poor by comparison.

I have been known to have them for dinner, with a glass of wine.

They used to do massive £2 bags of these which were one of my downfalls. They've recently stopped & I don't feel I would enjoy a wee multipack bag the same

A very good point. Several small bags are not the same as one big fuck-off massive one.

Four cheese ravioli 🤤 and colin of course 🐛

The do a mushroom pasta which is delicious! Easily as good as a (chain) restaurant dish.

AlltheFs · 26/05/2023 20:10

Mushroom Pappardelle

Sometimes I eat two 🐷

madeinmanc · 26/05/2023 20:11

@MsFannySqueers They do a delicious "crafted sourdough baguette" that's really delicious IMO.

madeinmanc · 26/05/2023 20:12

Oops, I said "delicious" twice, well it is Friday! 😅

Needapadlockonmyfridge · 26/05/2023 20:16

Salt and Vinegar combo crisps (big bag).
Percy Pigs, obvs
Colin "mini rolls"
Most of the picnic food 😀 empanadas mmmmm
Chicken tenders - especially the spicy ones

I will now be dreaming tonight of an M and S food shop and it's all your fault....

MsFannySqueers · 26/05/2023 20:17

Thanks @madeinmanc I might give that one a try I do love a bit of bread and lots of butter!

PauliesWalnuts · 26/05/2023 20:18

I don’t usually do ready meals (used to be a chef so can knock up a decent meal pretty quickly) but if I’m on a late train back from working in another office I raid the M&S at the station for king prawn bucatini.

lucylucyapplejuicy · 26/05/2023 20:19

The Chinese takeaway box, I think it's beef & black beef, crispy beef in chilli, Singapore noodles, egg friend rice & spring rolls really yummy me and DD love sharing it for a girls night better than a Chinese! X

Cocolapew · 26/05/2023 20:22

Apple and blackberry crumble with extra thick cream. I like it for my breakfast 😄

Meem321 · 26/05/2023 20:24

Their loaded fries!

jenn88 · 26/05/2023 20:27

@Papergirl1968
Yes, the filled Yorkshire puds!! But the price is off putting! Chicken for DP, beef for me!!!
And absolutely iced and spiced buns are my absolute favourite 🤩

Owlplant · 26/05/2023 20:28

Partner really likes to posh fish pie. The kids love the family sized lasagne.

familyissues12345 · 26/05/2023 20:28

Veggie moussaka Grin

fibeee · 26/05/2023 20:29

I love their super seeded bread loaf. And their pizzas are really good. Used to be addicted to their giant chocolate buttons but had to stop buying them as I could easily demolish them all in one sitting.

midsomermurderess · 26/05/2023 20:30

Quiche, potato and various other salads, Eton Mess (I think they do small, individual ones). Or cooked salmon fillets and salads.

FirstnameSuesecondnamePerb · 26/05/2023 20:36

Moussaka.
Couldn't make it for the cost and the faff.
Would be disappointed if they scrapped it.

FirstnameSuesecondnamePerb · 26/05/2023 20:36

And Gammon shanks with apple sauce.

FlibbertyGibbitt · 26/05/2023 20:44

Another for their Four cheese ravioli
the tuna and pasta bake
their spaghetti in basil and tomato sauce

All orgasmic 🥳

AtleastitsnotMonday · 26/05/2023 20:44

I'm afraid I don't have a ready meal to recommend but if you want a side the beetroot, apple and yoghurt slaw is unbeatable.

@mrsbyers Mexican Trifle?!? Shock

That’s what it’s called here , perfect Saturday movie night food with a bag of their tortilla chips

The beef filled Yorkie for me too @jenn88 but sadly I can't justify the cost very often.
