If you make up the Casserole Base, divide the mixture and freeze it, then when you need it it’s pretty easy to jazz it up by adding some tomatoes, garlic, herbs and lemon juice. If you’ve got time to make the Olive and Fetta Bread then voila – you’ve got a Greek style meal!!!
These are probably my husband’s favourite type of bought biscuit. I must admit I’ve never considered making them for him as I always though they were too difficult. This recipe doesn’t look that hard though so I guess I’ll now have to give them a go.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
One for the chocolate lovers….. I think the name, Chocolate Cream Pie, says it all……………..
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!!
