So I know this has probably been done before but wanted to see what everyone likes again. They don’t necessarily have to be secrets, but maybe things that you wouldn’t let people in RL know except for maybe your dh/partner.

I have an extensive list but will just give a few of my favourites.

Beef & tomato pot noodle sandwich, salt and vinegar crisps with mayonnaise on white bread, ritz crackers with just piccalilli, babybel with piccalilli, salt and vinegar crisps with a little bit of mayonnaise on each individual crisp, and a salt,pepper, jalapeño pepper with mayonnaise sandwich. I do have a lot more things but couldn’t possibly list them all, and that’s just from the top of my head. I don’t eat these things all the time obviously.

@FrankiesKnuckle I love cheese and marmite crumpets. I’ve recently got into spreading cheese triangles on them rather than sliced/grated cheese. It’s delicious

Pasta shells with butter salt and pepper, cheese & onion and mayo sandwiches, sweet corn cold out the tin!

Tuna and red ketchup sandwiches. And I don't care who knows! Everybody says bleurgh, but sure other fish comes in tins with tomato sauce, so not that weird.

The idea of fridge tapas is you don’t know what you want until you see it.

Nogoodnickname · 26/02/2020 22:09

Ok so....@Someaddedsugar all I’ve got to say is, I love you. That was AMAZING 😋. Thank you for that.

Banana, peanut butter and honey sandwiches are my guilty pleasure. I'm thinking next time I might up the ante and fry it in butter. It might take some experimentation to get it perfect but I reckon it'll be worth it. Plus, were always being told to eat more fruits and nuts.

Tinned mackerel in tomato sauce and frozen spinach, heated gently in a pan till hot, added to pasta with butter (or on toast)

Nogoodnickname · 26/02/2020 22:12

@TheyDoDoThat exactly and that’s were these weird but wonderful creations come from sometimes

Tinned hot dogs in a baguette.

Pizza dipped in American Mustard (dont knock it til you've tried it)

Chocolate digestives used to scoop out a Rolo Dessert.Orgasmic

Omg beef pot noodle sandwiches are the best!!!!

thefemalelemur · 26/02/2020 22:16

All the savoury gunk that sticks to the pan after roasting a chicken, I eat it secretly when I'm dishing up

SittingontheSidelines · 26/02/2020 22:17

I had a rich tea biscuit sandwich the other day, lots of butter, hadn't thought of it for years . Was so good. I also want to try the jam and crisps sandwiches. I don't think I'd better.

Nogoodnickname · 26/02/2020 22:17

@Ohtherewearethen what could possibly go wrong with banana, peanut butter, honey and some delicious butter. Also I think this sandwich would definitely count towards your five a day Grin

Eggy crumpets with bacon and reggae reggae sauce.
Butter pasta with salt and pepper.
Tinned plum tomatoes with mushrooms on toast with brown sauce.

Batshitcrazy82 · 26/02/2020 22:26

Beef mince fried with a oxo drained, with grated cheese and baked beans mixed in, it's my favourite!

Franklymydearidontgiveadam · 26/02/2020 22:26

Salt and vinegar Snack a Jack's with mayo and sliced cheddar. Unreal.
Crisp butties with mayo and chese
Potato waffles done in the chip pan
Eating chocolate and crisps together
Occasionally ill have a pot Noodle or rustlers burger/Bbq rib xx

Ni58 · 26/02/2020 22:36

White toast with a thick layer of Philadelphia and then raspberry jam on top of that. It's like a massive slice of makeshift cheesecake! Wink

PrincessHoneysuckle · 26/02/2020 22:38

@Ni58 philidelpia on chocolate digestives has a similar effect 😋

Oysterbabe · 26/02/2020 22:42

Potato waffle sandwich with Ketchup.
Waffles done in the toaster for maximum speed.

Oysterbabe · 26/02/2020 22:44

Anything with loads of carbs, preferably white bread, does it for me. I love a steak pie sandwich.

Notimeforaname · 26/02/2020 22:46

Wotsits dipped in spreadable cheese.
.... Or any crisp available to me....

Nogoodnickname · 26/02/2020 22:48

@FruityWidow do you cook the crumpets in a pan with the egg like you would with eggy bread? This sound totally delicious to me.
