This is a nice simple chicken dish. Chicken breasts, lemon juice, grain mustard, garlic, onions – what’s not to like in that combination.

LEMON MERINGUE RICE PIE
I would never have imagined that you could use rice cakes to make the base of a lemon meringue pie, but this recipe from Sunrice Australia published in the Women’s Weekly does just that. In the picture the base looks quite good, it does have some crushed biscuits in there as well as coconut, so I guess it works and the filling has rice in it as well. It’s certainly a different lemon meringue pie!!
HOT RHUBARB BUTTERNUT PIE
This recipe comes out of a Woman’s Weekly pullout called Pies without Pastry. When I first saw the title I thought the filling was rhubarb and butternut pumpkin which sounded very strange. On reading the recipe I was relieved to discover the butternut was actually butternut biscuits crushed to make the base. When you top that with the filling of rhubarb and apples and the crust of coconut and brown sugar you end up with a great tasting pie.
EASY LEMON TART
I’ve added Easy to the name of this tart because, although the recipe gives you directions to make your own lemon filling, you could always just use a bought lemon curd instead. No need to admit to anyone that you’ve taken the ‘easy’ way out.
FRIED RICE
When I was growing up the best part of the Sun newspaper was the Corinella children’s page. Each week the paper would publish jokes, drawings and recipes sent in by children and they would be awarded certificates of merit. This Fried Rice recipe earned it’s sender a Blue Certificate. It’s not the way I make Fried Rice, it has a much higher egg to rice ratio than my version, but it looks good and certainly worthy of a Blue Certificate.
ZUCCHINI & PASTA SALAD
Zucchini don’t have a lot of flavour by themselves and it’s a bit unusual to find them in a salad, but this recipes which adds pasta, beans, mustard and red capsicums seems to take care of that problem.
MOCHA MOUSSE SLICE
After watching Mum entertain family and friends for years and years I guess I’ve picked up a lot of her habits. One of the things she always like to do was to have everything prepared before people arrived and I’ve followed in her footsteps particularly with desserts. That’s one of the reasons that this recipe appeals to me. It can be made the day before and then just taken out of the fridge when you need it – marvellous.
CURRIED PICNIC PACKAGES
Finding things that are easy to make, taste good cold and are transportable for a picnic is always a challenge. Homemade pasties have always been a family favourite with us. I think this recipe which adds a little curry and fruit to the traditional flavour is a bit of a winner.
TOMATO RELISH with Apples & Sultanas
This is another version of Tomato Relish, unlike the other one I posted last year, this one has apples and sultanas added into the mix. It’s still a two day job though, as you need to let the tomatoes and onions sit overnight with the salt on them, before adding the other ingredients and cooking until thick the next day.
RHUBARB CHUTNEY
While rhubarb is not popular in my household it was in Mum’s. She made a lot of relishes and chutneys with the produce from Dad’s garden, although I’m not sure she made this one. Personally I think making relishes and chutneys is much easier than jams as they don’t need to set. As long as you cook them until they’re thick they work really well.
