...to give DH Spiderman pasta on toast for dinner?

[BEAUTlFUL]

I just really can't be bothered.

I have never understood the whole concept of tinned pasta though, especially served on toast.

Mmmm, a apoached egg on top of baked beans on toast would be very yummy I bet! Especially with lots of ketchup

tinned pasta on toast is a wonderful, quirky British tradition

some of the best meals are carb + carb

Like Mashed potato sandwiches with tommy k.

Best student meal ever =
Pasta, baked beans & cheese...... mmmm.... particularly good for a hangover, or if you get in late......

Not had that in years....

ooooh, chips butties yes, mashed potato in a sandwich..... not sure. I think the texture would bother me.

like macaroni cheese and chips

Mash sarnies have to have had the mash mixed slightly with gravy first, then dipped in gravy.

You know what Beautiful, sod the steamed fish I was going to prepare - I want spiderman pasta and chips!!!

Mine are fans of Bob The Builder tinned pasta. HAd it tonight with grilled plaice and spinach soup. So 2/3s of it was healthy!

told dp "somebody's dh is getting spiderman pasta for dinner tonight"

he said "what has he done to deserve that?"

I have only just realised he meant it in an envious way

only in this country would there be pasta on toast...

Oh LOL at F&Z's DH. And her with all her fruit'n'veg as well!!

I actually made my DH (then BF) spaghetti hoops on toast as the first thing I ever cooked for him. In my defence I was a student at the time and I ponced it up by giving it an Italian name. Doesn't it sound better as "angelini con pane tostata"?

and you from the land of deep fried mars bars, naily

oh Olivia, he dreams of pies and pot noodles
I am wasted on him

Does he not eat pies? Does he have to dream of them?

well he doesn't get pies bought and cooked FOR him that is for sure
possibly he eats them during the day, I have not kept close enough tabs on him to be able to say

LOL have just had flashback to when we were first courting
I did indeed 'catch' him homfing a pie in the high street after having been served perfectly good lentil fare at mine
poor sod

here's one then...

why, at our local tesco (home of all that is evil and vile by the way, but that's another story), is spiderman pasta for example 32p, fifi and the flowertots pasta 24p, thomas the tank engine pasta 28p, spongebob pants thingy pasta 34p etc etc etc.

this is all the same stuff, made with the same ingredients, in the same factory!

how can it be a different price?!

nippers had alphabety spaghetti for tea tonight, by the way. none left over for me, so am upset.

DH would love tinned pasta on toast. He has nostalgic flashbacks. When he's on his own he lives on bacon sandwiches, Pot Noodles and ready meals (sigh).

He took DS out the other day and happily reported that he's eaten loads - menu was a Greggs sausage roll and a Ribena ice pole and

I think you're entirely reasonable to offer such
a delightful meal. However, I dispute your choice of pasta. I had tinned spag bol on toast for tea on Weds. A much loved childhood favourite. Yum!

Just caught up with this thread.

Only on Mumsnet would someone think pasta on toast would actually be real pasta on toast! And ask "what sauce would you serve with it?" lololol.

And I cannot let a discussion about the delights of carb+carb eating pass without mentioning that other great Scottish delicacy, the macaroni pie. Yes, it is macaroni cheese, in a pie!

Squeaver that's my kind of meal! A bakery near work sells lasagne pie. I have to be sellotaped to my desk at lunchtimes otherwise I'd be the size of two houses instead of one!
