I often make a large tub of potato bake to serve at barbecues, mine has brown onions, bacon and corn in it. This version with leeks looks good though and I might give it a go over the summer months.

DIANE-STYLE BEEF CASSEROLE
I think the idea of pre-making a large batch of beef casserole, freezing it in batches and then jazzing it up when needed is a great one. This Diane-style version would be a quick way to make a tasty dish when you don’t have much time or energy left after a busy day.
BANANA BREAD CUSTARD PUDDING
This recipe was in a liftout booklet from the Women’s Weekly back in October 1991. It’s another take on the old bread and butter pudding with the twist being fruit loaf and banana instead of plain old white bread and butter.
CHOCOLATE MOUSSE ICE CREAM WITH FROSTED TOPPING
To me there’s a couple of advantages with this recipe, a. it contains chocolate mousse and b. you can make it a week in advance. When you’re catering for a crowd the trick is to do as much pre-preparation as you can so that on the day/night of the party you aren’t stuck in the kitchen all the time. For that reason alone this recipe could be well worth trying out.
CHICKEN AND PASTA LOAF
Although the sun might be shinning and it’s not quite picnic season yet, I couldn’t resist adding this recipe to the collection. Of course you could have it hot for lunch or an evening meal with vegetables, but cold with a few slices of fresh bread and a little chutney………..yum.
CHICKEN MOZZARELLA
This is a great way to turn a shop bought chicken schnitzel into a chicken parmigiana. An easy meal after a long day and when you don’t have a much of time or energy left.
CHOCOLATE CREAM PIE
One for the chocolate lovers….. I think the name, Chocolate Cream Pie, says it all……………..
CARAMELISED FISH
Looking for a different way to cook a piece of fish? Then I think this recipe is one for you. I’m not too sure about sugar with the fish, but as it was printed on the Herald Sun recipe page someone obviously liked it!!
IRISH POTATO CAKES
I can hardly boast that this is an old Irish recipe passed down through the family, because Mum doesn’t have any Irish ancestors. Even so, I like the sound of these baked instead of fried potato cakes. I started off thinking that they would be little less fattening until I came to the last part about splitting them in two and spreading them with butter…. Despite that or maybe because of it – they sound great.
DEEP-DISH BLUEBERRY & APPLE PIE
A nice hearty pie for a cold night?? You could easily cheat and used bought pastry and frozen blueberries, which would make it pretty quick and easy to make.
