I think the old habits of stocking up for a family of five are pretty strongly ingrained.

By the way, I know you have said electricity is more expensive than gas and you cook lots of stews etc on your hob but we have found cooking fresh vegetables in microwavable containers in a few tablespoons of water on high heat for a couple of minutes is very good (if anyone tries this, be careful when removing the lid due to the steam, use an oven glove to remove the lid) but it is so much quicker than on the hob. Will be checking the electricity consumption of course.

Roast potatoes & roast parsnips, steamed carrots & broccoli, asparagus with a couple of soft boiled eggs on the top. Delicious! Will make it again - and again!!!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05139897702169696195noreply@blogger.com
