You have to smile ... don't you?
One of my neighbours was going to Asda this morning and was kind enough to come and ask if I needed anything. I asked him to bring me some pasta - foolishly I did not expand on that - this is what he brought!
Definitely
not what I had in mind - but - hey - he was being very kind and I appreciate that. However, working on the waste not want not principle - this is how I used it.
Diced tomato, small onion, yellow capsicum and a couple of garlic cloves - put them into a saucepan with a generous knob of butter - left them to themselves while I read the instructions on the packet.
Made up the mixture of milk/water as directed - added to the pan - brought it up to boil - added contents of packet.
Opened a tin of tuna chunks - threw them in as well - gave it a good stir - left to simmer.
Grated some very strong cheddar - the sort that bites back!
Opened a bottle of bubbly (well, it is Sunday!)
When the food was ready - put it into a pasta bowl sprinkled the grated cheese over the top - and thoroughly enjoyed it!
