Jo, what's cheese and onion pie? How do you make it?

Mine would be jacket potatoes beans and cheese.
Chicken curry
Lasagne

Thank you for all your replies

We have a high student population in our area and I want to open a cafe that offers the sort of food "mum" makes!!

Good nutritional comfort food thats affordable, also I know that when I've had a long day at work I would love to just get a takeaway of of something"nice" - I dont do chinese or pizza or KFC so whats on offer .....not much!! a nice home cooked style meal...beef in red wine with mash or pork, apple and cider hot pot, or spanish style chicken and rice....thats what I'm after.

Would this work as a business model?! Not sure but I'm going to give it a go mainly because I'd use it and theres nothing available here like it...so here goes....

If this was on offer in your area .....would you use it???

He says he defrosts it , chops it into strips and pan fries it until it starts to brown like chicken.
Hope this helps

We have a place near us that has a similar concept, their best sellers are take away roast dinners. They throw in a free slice of cake. I've heard lots of people talking about them. X
