Ready meals

Found these at Morrisons, tried the spicy Mexican, very nice supposedly for two but plenty for one. But the best thing for me is the price, £2 per bag! In my opinion better value and very tasty compared to some of the more well known offerings. So went back and got a few more! ;

What appeals too is that the merchant ones are boil in the bag, the Loma ones just tip in a billy. Stick a mini Nan bread over a flame and your good to go.

Are they boil in the bag or more like a pot noodle?

That's a good find. Compares very favourably to the wayfayrer boil in bags in terms of calories, and a bit cheaper too. I find the wayfayrers tasty but a bit on the greasy side, which makes my stomach feel disquieted. So I'll be trying these.

wayfayrer boil in bags

These were available in my country earlier but after brexit they disappeared. I´m so sad....

plus maybe I would put some of those large portobello mushrooms and/or cherry tomatos on a skewer over the fire-as long as the mushrooms didn't dry out. Maybe a corn tortilla as well

I like to have them with some home made marinated lamb kebabs or a nice rib eye steak from Aldi added, maybe some flat bread to scoop it up with.

Sounds very nice! For me its about quick compact nutritious meals while out and about.

I do have them when I’m on an overnight, it just fills the gap between a properly cooked meal and a ready meal, adding some “carbohydrate” to the meat , although, to be honest, I’ve not checked what it is, but it replaces the potato and veg or salad I’d normally have with a nice steak.

Or the almost obligatory tins of all day breakfast or beans and sausage. plenty of choice out there, but these will do me for a while.
