Being brought up on a mixed farm I was fed beef, lamb, pork, chicken regularly all raised on the farm before ending up in the freezer, we also are lots of wild game. We raised geese and turkey's for the Christmas trade with a huge family effort to get them all oven ready. I still love meat and dairy but I am making a proper effort to cut back on meat. Growing my own veg these last year's helps with that too. @Nanny Beach we ate left over Yorkshire puddings with a dollop of ice cream and plenty of golden syrup beautiful
Nah! @Fairygirl tha’s tradition … and a very good one too 😋 and if there’s still some left next day, sprinkle it with brown sugar and heat it up win the Rayburn oven, then have it with Evap for pudding 🤤

It's very traditional in Yorkshire to have left over puds as a pudding, grandma had loads of different stuff she would fill them with. It was seen as a cheap stomach filler, flour, milk and eggs. It was served before the main meal with onion gravy so that you didn't want so much meat and veg which cost more.
Oh yes - I know that @Wilderbeast. My parents did the same when we were young, filled us up on whatever was available to make meat go further. Wartime parents
My Dad's very good friend was from Yorkshire. A lovely man who made me, and everyone else, laugh out loud at his funeral due to a comment he'd made which was read out. I think about it quite often and it makes me smile every time.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....

My mother-in-law told the story of the first time she met her future husband's parent, in Yorkshire. She was served that and thought it was all she was getting for dinner.
We would have a huge Yorkshire pudding cooked in the roasting tin with the rib of beef on a trivet above it (I have Ma’s trivet… one of my most precious possessions). The meat juices dropped into the centre of the pudding, giving it a wonderful flavour … that’s what we’d eat first with the meat.
The risen crispy parts that didn’t have the meat juices soaked in, if not eaten as second helpings with the meat and gravy, would be eaten for pudding.

Spaghetti , pasta and rice and many spices.
Curries , veg stir fry , and similar
Not eaten meat for 40 years.
Neither have I.
I just eat a plant-based diet ... and our own honey, so not totally vegan.
Actually, at the moment, every meal revolves around courgettes .... they've done rather well
Courgette cake anyone?
