Asda Fresh Frozen Roasting Parsnip

When it comes to eating a roast, there aren't a lot of nice vegetables out there. I am so bored of carrots I needed something new and this is where the parsnip came in. We've gotten into eating parsnips of late, not just with a roast but also with some chicken and potatoes on their own.

So frozen parsnips eh? What else will Asda think of to freeze next. As with most of their frozen veg, theres a photo on the packaging of these golden delicious hot yummy parsnips, and inside there as some essentially oversized wonky ...  Read the complete review

**** Introduction **** Having a suprise visit from my in laws this dinner time led me into a state of panic as I was preparing a mini roast dinner for me and my partner, as I was roasting a small joint only big enough to feed me and my partner and maybe a few sandwiches later on. But is was smelling so good the in laws commented which led to the fate full question " Would you like to stay for dinner " to my horror they excepted to i dug through the freezer to see what I had that could pad out the meal and make it look like I actually had enough to feed them. anyway as I reache the bottom of the freezer I cam across these frozen ...  Read the complete review
