kaberettInstallment one: cheese dumplings.
We had leftover cheese sauce from making lasagna (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
footpad: *wag*). We were making stew and dumplings. The cheese sauce needed using up.
Add a whole bunch more flour, a bit of veg suet, a bit of cheese, a little baking powder, some pepper and herbs, and ta-da! Cheese sauce dumplings, and one fewer leftover.
Installment two: miniature bread-and-butter puddings.
We had a half-slice of wholemeal date-and-walnut bread that had sat on the side of three days getting drier and drier and sadder and sadder. I broke it into chunks and distributed it between two silicone muffin cases, dolloped a couple of teaspoons of marmalade on top of each, sprinkled on some nutmeg and cinnamon, poured on enough milk to come most of the way up the bread, then baked at 180degC for about twenty minutes.
