Green Day Help please. What can I make with these things?

[Angelkitty]

Hi all I am running short on cash and so I am trying to use up things from the cupboards and fridge.

I would like to have a green day if possible and I have run out of ideas.

Any ideas what I can do with what I have for lunch and dinner?

eggs
leeks
frozen peas
Pasta n Sauce(most varieties)
Creme Fraiche
Low fat cheddar
carrots
broccoli
cauliflower
vegetable stock
rice
tin of mushy peas
tin of chopped tomatoes
tins of baked beans
loads of herbs and spices

I do have some diced turkey breast if needed. I really would like to use the creme fraiche up as I always use a bit and end up throwing the left overs.

Thanks in advance! x

how about a vegetable fried rice like this one

Spicy vegetable egg fried rice recipe - Recipes - BBC Good Food

or a mushy pea curry (never tried it but loads seem to enjoy it.

Hope that gets you started

oh you can make tonnes!!

green veggy soup
broccoli, leek, peas, veg stock creme fraiche

vegetable curry - cauliflower, carrots and peas
the famous mushy pea curry
with rice

cauliflower and broccoli cheese using the creme fraiche - maybe bulk it out with pasta and sauce, use an egg yolk to enrich the sauce if needs be

a risotto-ish with diced leek and broccoli and finished off with the cheese

a crustless quiche / fritatta with the eggs + cheese+ ?leek? brocolli? turkey

and for the finale - beans on toast with a fried egg on top! - not original but a classic!

happy cooking

Thank you! I made a risotto and soup! I'm just having one of those times where I lack any inspiration at all!! I think it's because I'm not really losing anymore.
