Im trying to make large batches of meals to fill my freezer with home made convenient quick food!So far I've made Spaghetti bolognaise, shepherds pie, green Thai curry, fish pie, home made burgers and chilli. Any other suggestions for great home made freezer food? I've run out of ideas!

Ooh great ideas, thankyou :) new inspiration! I'm planning to invest in an additional freezer to accommodate my latest attempt at being efficient.


My MIL has just bought us a slow cooker so I plan to try out some of those recipes too.


We have moved house recently and no longer have shops nearby, it's forcing me to be more organised which can't be a bad thing :)

It's odd, we are rural but with civilisation a short drive away (@ 5 miles). It still feels like we are on holiday!!


There is no local shop to pop too, although the farmers son (next door) sells eggs so there is always the fall back position of scrambled egg/ omelette etc


I had to order oil last week, that was interesting!! When asked how much I wanted I had to admit to not having a clue!! Bought 700 litres as recommended by the very helpful farmers co operative lady! As for cooking with an ancient Aga..... Hmmm fortunately there is a normal cooker too albeit the hob runs off LPG!!

Casseroles, stroganoff, coq au vin (all of the same theme but...) breaded things freeze well too, fish cakes, chicken goujons, other pasta options cannelloni, if you can be bothered raviolli etc passatta always v handy stand by for pizza topping, pasta sauce... Soups also good... Ahhh if I had the freezer space!

    • From the sign. Turn left up Peckham Rye, turn right onto Barry Road, straight across at the lights onto Eynella Road which leads you to Court Lane and Dulwich Park. You could turn right here and Dulwich Village is at the end of Court Lane. Of course you could stand by the sign and be “Now here or Nowhere”
    • I know nothing about farming so can't really comment but when I read things like this interesting thread from Guy Shrubsole I am increasingly cynical about those making the loudest noise.  And yes it is a genuine link.    
    • The top front tooth has popped out.  Attempted to fix myself with repair kit bought from Boots, unfortunately it didn’t last long.  Tooth has popped out again.  Unable to get to dentist as housebound but family member can drop off.  I tried dental practice I found online, which is near Goose Green, but the number is disconnected.   The new dental practice in FH (where Barclays used to be) said it’s not something they do.  Seen a mobile dental practice where a technician comes to your home and does the repair but I’m worried about the cost. Any suggestions please? Thank you 
    • So its OK for Starmer to earn £74K/annum by renting out a property, cat calling the kettle black....... Their gravy train trundles on. When the Southport story that involves Starmer finally comes out, he's going to be gone, plus that and the local elections in May 2025 when Liebour will get a drumming. Even his own MP's have had enough of the mess they've made of things in the first three months of being in power. They had fourteen years to plan for this, what a mess they've created so quickly, couldn't plan there way out of a paper bag.   Suggest you do the sums, the minimum wage won't  be so minimum when it is introduced, that and the increase in employers national insurance contributions is why so many employers are talking about reducing their cohort of employees and closing shops and businesses.  Businesses don't run at a loss and when they do they close, its the only option for them, you can only absorb a loss for so long before brining the shutters down and closing the doors. Some people are so blinkered they think the sun shines out of the three stooges, you need to wake up soon. Because wait till there are food shortages, no bread or fresh vegetables, nor meat in the shops, bare shelves in the supermarkets because the farmers will make it happen, plus prices spiralling out of control as a result of a supply and demand market. Every ones going to get on the gravy train and put their prices up, It happened before during lockdown, nothing to stop it happening again. You don't shoot the hand that feeds you. Then you'll see people getting angry and an uprising start to happen.  Hungry people become angry people very quickly.
