Has anybody signed up to make the kidney bean and pineapple curry yet? Or the ham, mint and pea casserole? I’m down for either
Yeah this is my plan. Partly because my Old Harold will think I’ve genuinely lost my mind if I tell him about the slop-a-thon! He’s a very nice man so I suspect I’m going to get a ‘this is lovely but I’m not really very hungry’ reaction. Can’t wait!
Frauleins und Herrens, i come to you a disappointment. After a particularly unsettled night, my OH offered me a bacon sandwich and a cup of tea in bed for breakfast and I couldn’t bring myself to decline in favour of a crappucino. I shall take up the mantle tomorrow!!

I plan a hangover tomorrow so will be the perfect time to slop away and feed it. I’m worried my Love Parmigiana may be too safe, or am I just a silly ninny and giving credit?!
Apparently all beans are interchangeable, as are all root vegetables.
‘A fistful’… bit gauche, darling.
ETA how the duck has she managed a calorie count for a recipe that has multiple different options of ingredients?!

Your work was not in vain, dear heart. I used your screen shot and got 'sleepy potatoes' whatever than meansI’m obsessed with every last one of you. Absolutely sublime.
I screenshotted the recipe lists and chose one at random by stabbing the screen and zooming in. Mega thanks to @Notmycat for this FORENSIC work and also, lol, RIP my camera roll:

Please, @That Forensic Man, can I have rhubarb and custard pancakes for my sins? And please can you share the recipe @Notmycat. Thank space you.
I don’t like custard so I really am starting on the back foot here.
Will make next week as am out of officeat the mo.
@That Forensic Man would you be so kind as to add me to the list, and @Notmycat do you happen to have this recipe? I'm excited to find out whether the potatoes are sleepy or whether I will become sleepy.
My OH is actually on Tattle and has posted (briefly) on the Jack threads so would clock it immediately.
Does he work on an oil rig?
Wait is he a benevolent cabbie from sarfend who doubles as Santa’s sleigh?
One of my favourite things is espinacas con garbanzos, so, if no one has already chosen it I'd like to do this spinach, chickpeas and bread , just to see how far off the original it it. I can tell from the photo that it's missing most of the spinach.
Spinach and chickpeas with bread recipe
Jack Monroe's spinach and chickpeas with bread is easy, comforting, cheap go-to curry packed with store cupboard and freezer staples.

I found that on BBC food x
Kidney bean and pineapple curry recipe
The combination of fruit and beans may sound an odd one, but this easy curry recipe is based loosely on the most popular dish on Jack Monroe's website.

I wish dear heart, I wish.
I’ll have to wait until next weekend. I’m BUSY at work this week with loads of long meetings so as we are tasting as well, I don’t want to risk 
at work from eating what looks like a bowl of green oily ectoplasmic effluent from the X Files.
Also, in homage to the original, I wish to do research into all the supermarkets to determine the cheapest one
and then a performative yomp to the most middle class one, before kneeling on the floor, “palming” things and crying, so I’d like to ensure my audience for that is as large as possible a la Leggy’s busy branch of Sainsbos in central london.
Finally, as I’m married, and as who knows what Jack and Leggy’s sexytime pasta will lead to, that sexytime needs to be negotiated and carefully scheduled long in advance. I learned this from Patron Saint of Sali Hughes. Although she does say in her special book of handy hints and tips you should pre-schedule sexytime before eating in case you get too full, but I’m not sure that’s going to be an issue here.
PS I’m not going to schedule it anywhere other than in my own mind and here, so the entire thing will be a lovely treat for Mr V.

That recipe is so stupid. Just get a tin of bloody minestrone.
Yes, courgettes, that vegetable that grows in the summer, are “perfect for lunch all year round”
