The start of a collection of tinned/longlife foods in case we get swept up in the El Nino polar vortex.

edit: guys i have more cheese in the fridge don’t worry! i have brie, a couple things of boursin and halloumi

This will last me 12 days ish with pantry essentials and some veg still in the fridge. What does everyone think?

From Morrisons. Planning to make chicken noodle soup and egg & tofu fried rice. I already have a pack of apples, noodles, stock, rice, frozen veg, tinned sweetcorn, and tofu at home. I don't have breakfast, for lunch I'll probably just take some fruit. The pancakes (already in the freezer), hot chocolate, and marshmallows will last a while hopefully.

F24 £17.75 Lidl Shop

(I have lots of beans/pulses and tofu in the kitchen already)

Only paid £50 for all this! Because my mum paid for the rest 😂

Probably get roasted. Happy for them as long as there funny

I don’t even know what kind of shop this is. I’ll usually do like one big one then just buy add ingredients here and there. Some of this will last for months other a few days.

Was tired, hungry and rushing to back to get a nap in before my night shift

Needed to grab some bits for dinners this week: chilli pesto pasta with cheese and a salad on the side lol, also just needed more staples like coffee, squash, milk- and my fruit bowl was running low so I picked up an assortment!

Pretty ok with nectar card. I live alone so can probs get 5 nights of tea done with this selection

I eat a lot of the same stuff and this was basically a resupply run. Should last around 2-3 weeks for most things.

EDIT: Still got veggies (potatoes, cucumbers and frozen mix) from last haul haha. It's not what it looks like! 😆

Salad will also have a homemade vinaigrette with bramble vinegar made by a friend, butter beans, and maybe some dates or pecans or walnuts, along with the greens, apple (which I might get another, rather buy fresh when I run out), blue cheese, and fried onions.

I have an extra carrot, potato, and onion to throw into the soup (with stock etc staples)

Could have obviously picked cheaper options (and thought to bring two bags instead of one...). But eh. I like what I like.

It's soup season so I'll make some more strews with the tomato concentrate to use that up. Celery a good snack with things.

Edit: omg I have so much borscht

I used to shop at Ocado and spend 3x the amount and run out of food halfway through the week! Cheers to meal planning
