#KitchenClearout July roundup and August/September linky


Having just got back from holiday in Bulgaria, I'm all out of sync with the #KitchenClearout roundups, but the summer is always a quiet time anyway, as most of us are either away from our kitchens or just too busy to be blogging ! This month's round-up is short and sweet, but I've no doubt next month's will be busier as we all get back into routine. I'll try to push it back to the beginning of the month but each linky can only run for 33 days maximum so it'll take a bit of tweaking !

So, on to this month's recipes.


I always love Jane from Onions & Paper's quirky recipe names and this one is brilliant :  Pork that thinks it's duck that thinks it's pigeon ! It's basically Peking duck pancakes using pork instead of duck - sounds like a genius idea to me and would be perfect for using up any leftovers after a Sunday roast, whether pork, chicken or beef.


This seems so long ago because it was the end of term, before the school holidays had even begun ! A glut of cherries from school was turned into a classic French cherry clafoutis.


Creamy chicken & chorizo pasta was a tasty way of clearing out the fridge before going on holiday.


Finally for this month, Galina from Chez Maximka started off the holidays with some delicious Anything Goes Cookies, a great way of using up the ends of boxes of cereals and granola that are always taking up space in my kitchen too.

Thanks to everyone for taking part again this month. Hopefully we've given you some inspiration for creating tummy-fill, not land-fill, with the odds and ends lurking in your kitchen.


Feeling inspired and fancy joining in? Have a rummage through your kitchen cupboards, spice rack, freezer or fridge and see if there's anything that needs using up, then come and share your creations with us. Or if it's way past its sell-by date, throw it in the bin and come and tell us what you found ! It would be great if you could add my badge and a link to this post for anyone else who wants to get involved.

  6. I must go through my cupboards and see what is near the use or best before dates as I'm sure some of my baking ingredients are. I hate coming across things that have gone out of date and wasting food. Thanks for the reminder!
