Why have I never tried this before?

[Janine]

Staying longer than intended on C&CC folkie meet in a very wet field miles from the nearest shop, my fridge is almost empty so I am having to resort to food in my emergency cupboard.

I have never liked hot corned beef very much but made into a pasta sauce with tinned tomatoes and a tomato chilli cuppa soup with a bit of chopped courgette boiled up with the pasta, it’s actually really nice!

Copious amounts of red wine makes it taste even better

As any Student will tell you, you appear to be missing three essential ingredients.
Baked beans, Mayonnaise and Pepper.

The courgette makes it all sound far too healthy !

Thank goodness you had not run out of red wine, that would have been serious!

In my defence, I don’t actually like baked beans although I can see they would add some bulk to the dish There is a grind of black pepper to make it posh and the courgette adds a bit of a colour contrast.

Mayonnaise on it though…….

Corned beef hash - a staple when we lived in Liberia and there was no fresh meat!

I thought tuna surprise didn't have any tuna and that was the surprise?

I love food made up of leftovers and last bits of stuff you have in the fridge/larder, bung it all together and it always seems to taste great…

Fried SPAM with baked beans.

Also, I learnt only a few months ago, that SPAM stands for 'Specially Prepared American Meat'.
