Does that Aldi pasta actually taste/feel like pasta?

Tried the konjac noodle alternative and still traumatised 😂

Just had a steak cooked in butter. Trying to get more iron!

Usually lettuce with prawn cocktail.
Today I'm meeting a friend and will have a chicken caesar salad wrap, without the wrap and sauce on the side.

Oh, the smell of those konjac noodles when you open the packet Grin

I stick with a sachet of frozen caulirice from Ocado when I need a mound of something on which sit my protein!

Yes its really good. Best pasta alternative I have tried. Nothing like the Konjac which I can't stomach either 😂

I find it best if you cook it a little longer than the packet says as it can have a slight chewy texture when underdone.

I also have the soy bean and black bean spaghetti version but not tried those yet.

2 mackerel fillets with pickled radish. Yum. Feel very scandi with my lunch today. Chicken curry with spinach later.

Just taken a portion of pork casserole from the freezer and will have it with caulirice with a few petit pois mixed in for colour.

For info, these frozen sachets from Ocado are the best in my experience, 3.5 minutes in the microwave. No additives or weird smells like some of the pouch ones.
