#KitchenClearout October roundup and November linky


Wow, we're already a week into November and I haven't had a chance to post last month's roundup - oops ! So what did everyone share last month? Well, I was off visiting the Madhouse grandparents so I'll have to catch up next month 


Galina from Chez Maximka started off us with this delicious dessert : Ice Cream Sandwiches. Yum ! This used up a bag of almonds and the end of the clotted cream ice cream. Sounds and looks delicious.


Galina was back with a savoury option that would be a great hit with any kids : Leftover Rice Cutlets. This is a fabulous dish for leftovers, which can use up whatever you have - potato, parsnip, sweet potato, carrot. This looks like a fabulous idea for using up leftovers so I will be playing with this one, and not just for the kids!


Fruity Oat Crumble was the ultimate #KitchenClearout dish, using up all sorts of things from the kitchen - some over-ripe plums, the end of a punnet of raspberries, a pot of jam, some Ready Brek ... and best of all, it tasted delicious !


Jane from Onions and Paper joined in with another fabulous kid-friendly dish : Dirty Hot Dog Fry, which looks like something the Madhouse kids would love. This was a great way of clearing out the fridge, using up some hot dog sausages, bacon, potato, onions and mushrooms.


Pineapple & Coconut Dream Cake was a twist on a Danish recipe that was perfect for clearing out some odds and ends from the baking cupboard : some sliced coconut and brown sugar, as well as a tin of pineapple.


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.

Join in with this month's link-up below ! :)

  1. Fabulous! Thank you so much for including recipes for dishes made with leftovers. I have got a bit of a thing about not wasting food so really appreciate ideas for using leftovers.

  2. Some yummy dishes there as usual, although my mind is boggling at the idea of left over clotted cream ice cream - I really must introduce my husband and sons-in-law to Galina! They'd love her ice cream sandwiches but there'd definitely be no ice cream left!
