Jack Monroe #7 The Judge can send us down to hell, but we won't eat that béchamel

[PennyLoafer]

I'm definitely getting the hots for Matt. For every teaspoon of indigestible slop she turns out, he counter-serves a ladle of delicious shade.

I managed to get some flour from Ocado

I can't see her being back tomorrow they've had enough and poor Matt having to eat her offerings

Oh she will be back, count on it. Her ego is so big that if they turfed her, world war 3 would start with her adoring TwitterTwats

Hairy bikers segment was due to this being today

She DEFINITELY did not make this carrot cake overnight oats up! I’ve seen slimming worlders on Instagram making this for YEARS

Why tinned carrots, my greengrocers sells carrots for pence. I think I bought a handful the other day for like 50p great big ones. Two of those grated would make a small carrot cake at least.

For Bircher Muesli - I grate an apple into oats and add real lemon juice. If you don’t have an apple try apple juice. Or milk. Add chopped nuts and fresh or frozen fruit and yogurt later.

Honestly if I had nothing to put with my oats but tinned carrots I’d have them plain and eat the carrots with dinner

 

[heretoreaditall2019]

Noooo I missed the whole thing because of work calls, when they renew please can we have it start at 11am?

Her Twitter should be hotting up soon with praise for Lady Cack Monroe.

Tinned carrots in overnight oats
Yogurt, frozen fruit, bit of sugar/ sweetener. Takes two minutes to prepare and you don't have to wash a blender. And why pour the carrot milk into a ceramic jug then into the bowl of oats, just pour it straight in you dozy cow.

A work colleague told me about over night oats ages ago, it’s such an easy breakfast and she has just made a joke of it. I usually put oats, frozen fruit and some yogurt in a tupwerware tub and leave it. It is so nice and easy. That carrot crap is a shocker and possibly the lowest point.

I reckon the research team are looking through her books for the worst recipes they can find...there is probably a bet going on...I see your corned beef chilli and raise it carrot oats... bet you can’t get Matt to eat that!

 

[LennyBriscoe]

Please can anyone confirm if she was mentioned at the end for tomorrow's show

Yeah she was. I got my hopes up when Matt said the Doctor would be back by popular demand and would be cooking with him...but then he said at the very end “Join Jack and I tomorrow for some terrible ingredient mash-ups, random things you would never have thought were fancy but Jack says they are now and another instalment of how Jack’s cooking and baking makes people fall in love”

I think I would rather eat snot than what she slopped together.

 

[Flumps]

Ok, so she was a little better today, so I guess kudos for taking on feedback where ever she is getting it from. If she'd been approached by the BBC because of all her previous work, I'd have a lot more sympathy, but I keep going back to that Twitter pile on of JO, and how that got her this, and it was just not a cool way to behave.

This is such an example of why you shouldn't give anyone something just because they stamp their feet really hard and say 'It's not ffffaaaaaaiiiirrrr'. It's not fair, you're right, but the unfairness is born of the fact that some people are good at some things and other people aren't. It's not fair that I'm never going to hold the WR for 100m sprint, but I'm no good at running and a bit fat. It was irresponsible of the BBC, both to its license fee payers, to the DK team and to Jack herself, to give her this role, particularly at this time. She's giving poor (and wrong) advice out on a BBC show designed to help people out in a tough time and it makes me cross.

Just leaving this here

That is not the face of a man who is enjoying what he is eating!

There’s a book called ‘Feed your family for £20 per week’ and it’s full of great recipes we love as a family.

One of them is overnight oats with frozen fruit in it. What’s wrong with that instead of bleeping carrots?!

Probably because it is coming out his backend at the same time.

I didn’t manage to watch live today and am catching up on the comments but had to pip in with the dawning realisation of who I’m reminded of with every bout of the MeMeMes, Elevenerife, braggy drivel she comes out with...

 

[ChokingOnZofloraFumes]

Like I've seen baked carrot cake oats, but they don't use tinned carrots (because let's be honest, tinned veg is always a bit naff) and they actually have some texture beyond baby food.

I’ve seen that book on over in WHSmith (prelock down) I might have a look through when we are allowed out.
I actually think she is damaging the idea of budget cooking, from watching this it appears that cheap is unappetising and tinned. This simply isn’t the case.

It’s actually really really good. As a family we have never found a cookbook that suits us but this one does, the recipes are simple things like quiches or pastas, fish and chips. But they come out so well thought out and aren’t expensive. So for jack to say she has the monopoly on budget cooking is absurd, this is way better than the slop I’ve seen served up. I’d definitely recommend giving it a go.
