What to cook from Old Mother Hubbard's Cupboard...?

Tesco delivery comes tomorrow, need to feed myself, DH and DD (17mo) tonight with what I can find in my increasingly bare kitchen! But I'm cold, tired and feeling very uninspired.

In the freezer we have:

2 x small pack Turkey breast (pre-chopped I think, twas reduced to 99p :o)

A pack of cheapo sausages (reduced to 49p! Will be ok in something, but not as is)

There's loads of other stuff in the freezer, but I need to have a sort through as there's not enough of anything for a proper meal for 3 IYSWIM

I have some potatoes & spaghetti, but no rice, noodles or normal pasta Shock

I think I have a tin of beans, and probably kidney beans or chick peas. There's probably some tinned toms.

Lots of herbs and spices.

No bread, but I do have flour etc

Inspire me MN!

Sausages in mash, make onion gravy to disguise cheapness of sausage

SecretNutellaFix · 04/01/2011 16:02

do sausage and bean casserole.

Sausages, the beans and tinned toms and serve with mash

DP makes an awesome sausage and bean pie. the exact ingredients are a closely guarded secret Grin but it's basically sausage and bean stew topped with mash and baked or grilled.

Or make a spicy turkey and tomato thing (is it cacciatore it's called?) and serve with spag.

what about skinning the sausages and making meatballs out of them and cooking them in a tomato sauce to go ontop of spagetti? I think there is a good recipe I've tried... hold on

I think it was this one www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/1487/saucy-sausage-pasta

Toad in the hole? Or sausage and chickpea / kidney bean casserole, using the tinned toms. Add some paprika, it will also disguise the cheapness of sausages nicely Smile.
