Stretching a chicken breast

I defrosted a chicken breast for lunch today and was then asked to feed four instead of two of us.

I have a sausage that I skinned and moulded into balls, I've made a batch of stuffing and have Yorkshire pudding batter sitting in the fridge.

By the time I've done mashed and roast potatoes, cabbage, sprouts, carrots and peas  I'm sure no one will notice how meager the chicken is. 

I will make a traybake to fill up any corners.

Sounds lovely, can you make a space for me?
I've cut down a lot on the amount of meat we eat, choosing to do enormous amounts of veggies instead, we've found we never feel as 'stuffed' as we used to after a meal!
Take care! X

Sounds good. Doesn’t matter what you have at times like this as long as you feel full.

extra veg is always good, especially with onion gravy ;)

Mmm... love Yorkshire pudding! I wouldn't miss the meat with all these veggies and stuffing too.

An excellent way of stretching out the meat. It sounds lovely and plenty to fill up on.

Stew

Y'days lamb was delicious and there is lots left. So today I'm making a stew, I'll use half of the left over lamb and add onion ...
