Substituting brown or white rice for bulgur (a wheat product) is a really good way to make this salad gluten free, without losing all the other great flavours of the Middle East.

CREAMY CHICKEN LOAF
As more and more Australians are deciding that a hot Christmas lunch is a bit silly in our climate, this 1970s cold Chicken Loaf could be worth trying. It has the added benefit of being made the day before and you only need turn it out and slice it on Christmas Day. A great way to cut down the stress of the big day.

CHRISTMAS ROAST DUCK with BREAD SAUCE
When I was young the Christmas treat was a roast chicken this could involve killing, plucking and cleaning the bird and was a major job. There was no such thing as frozen chicken so the effort in cooking a chicken made it very special. From chicken we seemed to have moved onto turkey for Christmas, but it’s not everyone’s favourite, especially the dried out leftovers. I found this old 1968 roast duck recipe in the collection and I thought it might be of interest. It has Bread Sauce to go with it, something I’ve never tried. So maybe it’s time for a change and return to the 1960s!!!
