I can recommend using salt and vinegar crisps
it takes it to the next level.

I have also done this when I ran out of ready salted
I enjoyed it a great deal! :)

I was thinking Smokey Bacon would be nice...

(Tugnut Ex of this parish, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 13:22, Reply)

I have not tried this
*ponders*

This might work!! :)

I can assure that it does
but I didn't like it as much as salt and vinegar

Fair enough
Maybe I'll try it one time just to see! :)

you might prefer it
it was good, just not as good as S&V imo

^^THIS
I use crushed salt and vinegar crisps as a topper (with spicy cheese) for my tuna pasta bake.

I do?
Oh, yes, I do. I'll sort something out... tuna pasta bake?
( Labia Majora You keep on talking but it makes no sense at all, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 13:28, Reply)

With mushrooms?

Come to the wrongun side...
we have pasta bake!
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Thu 18 Mar 2010, 13:24, Reply)

It's all a bit studenty for my liking.
I can afford M&S pasta bake now.

Oh me too but sometimes I like to revert to cheap food
as its nice. I tend to only get away with this when DiT is out though. He has higher standards than me when it comes to food.
(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Thu 18 Mar 2010, 13:28, Reply)

there's no reason why cheap food can't be awesome
I tend to just make pasta bake sauce from chopped tomatoes and stuff instead though.
( Vipros. clever got me this far, then tricky got me in, Thu 18 Mar 2010, 13:29, Reply)

I make mine even simpler
It's just tuna, mayo, sweetcorn and pasta. Mix a bit of cheese in too, maybe add a chopped bird's eye chili, crushed S&V crisps and cheese topper.

I concur
One of my other dodgy cheap food things is to cook chicken pieces with tons of hoi sin sauce, then throw in beansprouts, then thrown in boil in the bag rice and then noodles, cover the whole lot in more hoi sin and then stuff the lot in my face… simple pleasures.

haven't had it for a while
but get a tin of corned beef and mash it together with a tin of baked beans.

Wrap the resultant goo in puff pastry and bake.

fucking lovely.

That my friend sounds so wrong and yet so right.

(Flim-Flam the Magnificent "You is talking loco and I like it!", Thu 18 Mar 2010, 13:37, Reply)

it is both of those things
you end up with something about 5 inches wide by a foot long, which tastes amazing.

tend to eat it for lunch cold the next day and have found that it weighs approximately 3 times as much when cold.

Sweet Chilli
crisps make the best tomato pasta bake topping
