Food!

[taimatsu]

Currently I have no money. Well, I have about twenty-three pounds which has to last me I-don't-know-how-long. That figure is, fortunately, *after* the food-shopping I have just done - I have spent about fourteen pounds on food. Now I want you to suggest what I should do with it!

I have (from shopping and storecupboard):

• all the pasta ever
• thin rice noodles, egg noodles and those floppy Amoy udon straight-to-wok noodles
• and some cheapie instant noodley things
• risotto and long-grain rice
• porridge oats
• small loaf brown bread

• a huge red onion
• a small white onion
• two courgettes
• two medium King Edward potatoes
• a fair pile of button mushrooms
• a large, glossy, gorgeous red pepper

• a big tin of sweetcorn
• a small tin of tuna in brine
• some baked beans
• a small jar of pesto
• a tin of chopped tomatoes
• a jar of Cirio Sugo Al'olive (tomato and olive pasta sauce, best thing in the world, have to stop myself eating it with bread constantly)
• some margarine, jam, mayonnaise, etc
• olive oil, sesame oil, balsamic vinegar, soy sauce
• box of enormous plate-sized matzos crackers
• couple of tins of soup
• stock cubes, etc.
• tropical squash, Ribena
• milk

Note I do not have: any cheese, any fresh meat, any fresh tomatoes.
So, what do I cook? How do I make this last as long as possible?

I'd be a bit wary of mushrooms from Smelly Alley though!
