Right, food is ready. BBL.

 

[fossyant]

Home made.
Veggie 'mince', onion tomato paste, veggie stock cube & (maybe a mistake) a can of '4 Bean Salad' that needed using..

Ditch the veggie mince substitute, and use real veg.

Another box packed and courier arranged

Did you rinse the sauce / dressing off the beans before wanging it in with the other ingredients?

Although I think the veggie mince might be the mis-steak.

I did.. 👍

Good plan, now the last tray of veggie mince has been used up 👍

 

[Reynard]

Steak & kidney, home made oven chips and braised celery.

Although if you had dumped in a whole load of chilli, then it wouldn't have mattered very much what the dish tasted like...

I'm having a mug of tea before I go to bed.

As a meat eater, I'd never ever use a 'substitute'. I'm happy to eat a veg version so long as it's veg, and not something pretending.

Green and brown bins are kerbside

... and especially when someone condemns an entire country (and hence by extension, all its people - many of whom are suffering dreadfully because of their opposition to their leader's actions), wishing all sorts of ill on the land and all within it - and conveniently forgets all about their own country's recent and not-so-recent 'actions'.
Lots of cookery analogies - pots, kettles, sauces and geese - come to mind ...

ok that's enough harassment. stop or I'll report you to a moderator

I'm very much the same. I don't "get" the whole fake meat thing. Besides, it's expensive - and for the large part, not terribly tasty. And it's all highly processed as well.

I prefer to my meat go further by adding pulses and vegetables, or just cooking straight up veggie food.

My green wheelie bin is also outside awaiting collection in the morning.

Why on earth would you think that?

It was a perfectly valid point to make.

We've always sneaked veg into stuff we've cooked in the past for the in-laws. My FIL would have refused to eat a cottage pie if he knew there wasn't just beef, but two tins of tomatoes, shredded carrots, diced mushrooms, peas (that's the only greens he would eat).... he loved it. We never told him or MIL what was in it - it was over 50% veg...
