Calling all budding cook enthusiasts

[melarnz]

I am completely rubbish with inventing stuff so I was wondering if I could have your help

I have opened the fridge and used up some leftovers to make a jacket potato topping- but there is something missing.

I used half Mayo/half Greek yoghurt, leeks, chopped peppers fried them in garlic then mixed them with left over roast chicken. It tastes nice but needs a zing.

I don't like hot spicy food but do like herbs. I was thinking maybe mango? (I have some frozen mango in the freezer).

Any ideas would be great!!!

Thanks

what about a squeeze of lemon juice for a bit of tang? or just some black pepper? xx

Yep I thought lemon zest

I'd also go for lemon with chicken. Yum yum! Or some smoked paprika in the mayo mixture? xx

Sian - do u have a food diary? Your losses are amazing. I'd love to see it!

So... I'm the only one who misread the title of this thread and thought I had walked into an entirely different forum altogether then...

Melarnz - your losses are also fabulous! Well done you! I do have a food diary, but I haven't updated it for about 5 weeks. You've reminded me about it actually, so thankyou!

Here's the link if you want to take a peek...it's not the most exciting I'm afraid as I'm not at all inventive!

yep some juice of a fresh lemon and bit of black pepper should work a treat.

Thanks guys. I went for the pepper. I can't believe what a difference it made!! I'm not a lemon lover, so I was a bit scared to try it and ruin my beautiful creation lol

thanks for the comments on my weight loss; it's funny as you are seeing me for the 1st time, 58lbs is great. But because I know I had lost double that only 6 months ago I see it as a failure!

But hey ho ..... Here's to the road to skinnyness
