    I’ve got a mandoline slicer and any excuse to use it is welcome.

    I ended up going to a backup frozen meal, chicken and veg pie from Dinner Ladies, they’re bloody expensive, but worth every cent having a couple in the freezer.

    I did however buy everything we needed for that Aldi recipe, including the wine, so I’ll cook and drink that Saturday afternoon. 🤣

            It’s pretty good, plenty of chicken and veg chunks and feeds 2 adults and 2 primary ages kids.

            A wealthy relative gave close family members a $300 gift voucher during a lockdown and we’ve been hooked every since. They look expensive, but the quality is high and it’s cheaper than a couple good pizzas delivered.

              The Dinner Ladies have some good recipes online too. Simple, no nonsense bullshit and tasty.

                The butter chicken is a HUGE favourite in our house and the veggie rice is a close second.

                There’s a couple things that aren’t worth the money, cooked lamb shanks are cheaper at Aldi and there’s no difference in quality/flavour and we generally avoid stuff that needs more than an oven or microwave… Because what’s the point of lazy meal if you still have stand there cooking it.
