I bought a gammon joint for £2.99 and it has provided 5 meals for 2 of us:

boiled and sliced, served with pease pudding, mashed potatoes and broccoli
enough pea and ham soup for 2 meals
sliced ham for sandwiches for 2 meals

oh, and the bits added to a filling for a quiche

Not bad eh? Nearly beats the number of meals one can make from a small chicken!

Has anyone else managed to get more meals than this out of one item, (I'm sure someone will have done so)?

Well Veritas, all it is is dried split peas and seasoning so I doubt if it is sold comercially prepared. I'd not had any before but I like to try 'old' receipes that I get from my Farmers Weekly Receipe Book. I did add more seasoning and a sprinkle of herbs as I thought it might be a bit bland otherwise. We both liked it. And I put the left overs into the soup to use it up.
