i have 4 small jars of C&G lentil and veg bake that i bought before i started to wean dd. I then decided to do BLW so have never used them. Does anyone have any idea what i could turn them into that could be used as a finger food? i dont want to waste them. they arent too runny, but is there something i could add to them to turn them into croquettes or something?
any ideas welcome! TIA

LucyJones · 05/07/2007 20:45

ooh no idea what to do except think toast is a good idea
but I'm very intrigued about your mad panic on holiday. what was it about?!!

oliveoil · 05/07/2007 20:45

wallpaper paste?

grout?

Beetroot · 05/07/2007 20:45

I would just use a spoon

LucyJones · 05/07/2007 20:45

I would use a spoon too
or give them to a friend with a baby or a pregant friend

Beetroot · 05/07/2007 20:45
