To have chips with Brie and gravy?

And maybe some jalapeƱos?

Dh reckons it sounds disgusting. I reckon it sounds epic. We have hardly any food in the house until tomorrow so it's all Christmas leftovers.

AIBU? And if not that, what else do you suggest for lunch that isn't boring old cheese and crackers?

Any cranberry sauce to go with?

KingJoffreysRestingCuntface · 29/12/2016 12:18

If you want to eat it then you should eat it.

Personally I think brie and gravy sounds a bit 'special' but if you like it then go for it.

SummerSazz · 29/12/2016 12:18

I could totally do that. Jalapenos as a garnish are genius Grin

DorindaJ · 29/12/2016 12:18

Oooh, you devil, sounds fab. Although I wouldn't have the gravy. And the cheese Grin...

Chips and cheddar and gravy is delicious. Not sure the brie would work in the sane way.

Brie and cranberry sarnie with chips on the side?

Oogle · 29/12/2016 12:19

Chips and Brie? Fine
Chips and gravy? Fine

Chips, Brie and gravy? Wrong.

Oooooh, I'm a little bit hungover and that sounds immense. I might drag myself to the chippy.

iklboodolphRedNoseReindeer · 29/12/2016 12:20

Toastie not toaster. Bit too crunchy if you try & eat a toaster.

SparkleShinyGlitter · 29/12/2016 12:21

Brie an gravy? No thanks but I don't have to suffer eating
Brie and chips? Sounds nice to me. I now and then make deep fried breaded Brie with chips

Make a sandwich and have a side of chips?

HardLightHologram · 29/12/2016 12:21

I've got no bread left otherwise it would totally be a Brie sandwich. No cranberry sauce as we didn't have a roast (we had kebabs Grin).

I'm gonna go for it. I'll report back in half an hour.

Yes. Or rather, this is something one does at about midnight after too many beers and doesn't talk about afterwards. Wink

BarbaraofSeville · 29/12/2016 12:21

Ditch the gravy. Everything else sounds fine.

Limebritzer · 29/12/2016 12:21

I feel like the Canadians do a similar dish with Cheese and gravy? I say go for it, nothing that has brie on it can be gross!

nottinghamgal · 29/12/2016 12:21

Sounds like a posh poutine!!

sophiestew · 29/12/2016 12:22

I love chips and gravy. Would leave the brie out of it though....

Bluntness100 · 29/12/2016 12:22

Cheese and gravy sounds awful to me to be honest, especially Brie . 😱

SaucyJack · 29/12/2016 12:22

Any Thai sweet chilli dipping sauce then?

It does need some sort of condiment to finish it off.

malificent7 · 29/12/2016 12:23

Brie and cranberry sarnies for me!

PuntasticUsername · 29/12/2016 12:23

Yep. Do it for me. Sounds fantastic. I'm proud of you OP.

SittingDrinkingTea · 29/12/2016 12:25

I'd cook the chips, then slice the brie and put on on the chips, top with the jalapeƱos and put it all under the grill for a couple of minutes until it's bubbling.

Boundaries · 29/12/2016 12:27

Is the Brie under the gravy? That might be a bit gross...

HardLightHologram · 29/12/2016 12:30

Brie under the gravy so it goes all melty.

I should say that I often have chips with mozzarella and gravy so there is a precedent. It's just that I've run out of mozzarella and have a surfeit of Brie.
