It was lovely! My friend was rushed into hospital last weekend with appendicitis and she needed cheering up so I went over and made her lunch and the roulade - which she also loved! Left it with her so I wouldn't eat it all

Woo hoo! Well done my lovely! Amazingly well done to get your club 10! Hope you gave yourself a pat on the back xx

As for the cannelloni it's waiting until tonight because I didn't have the right dish going to get one on my way home tonight so it's definitely getting cooked tonight! Xx

Cannelloni gets a 7.5 outta 10. So much faffing with it :S was lovely don't get me wrong but I used plain passata and it should have been the one with onions and garlic so maybe that would have taken it to an 8 or more xxx

 

[dextersmum]

The cannelloni looks lovely but agree with you - don't really like making faffy foods unless have loads of free time (which isn't often!)

I would recommend making it into a lasagne though! I would blitz most of ingredients in a chopper, mix with wet goods and then layer with the lasagne sheets. Turns out just as well but less hassle.

No idea what's for tea tonight, OH is cooking so I can go to badminton. Fingers crossed it's not a nightmare! Xx
