Honey Joys

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Chrissyo  

I used to make these with my mum, and now I make them with my boys (except they call them Crunchy Munchy Honey Cakes like the Wiggles song!). Thanks for posting, I'd lost my recipe and can never remember the quantities. — westivan Oct 14, 2009

Tuna Patties

Posted by nelsongirl  

My sons aged 2 and 4 loved these, although they were a little too sweet for the adults, so next time I'll probably reduce the tomato sauce a bit. I might add a few grated veggies too (carrot, zucchini) as these patties would be a great spot to... — westivan Jun 15, 2009

My Mama's Hummous

Posted by Miraklegirl  

Yummmmmmm! I always meant to make my own hummous but never got around to it...until today when I overcooked some dried chickpeas I meant for something else. Now I need to head to the shops so I can get some pita bread to make chips for dipping — westivan Jan 20, 2009

Coconut Chocolate Truffles

Posted by Chef floWer  

These have been a Christmas tradition in our family for as long as I can remember. They travel well when you need to "bring a plate" and are loved by kids and adults alike. For an extra surprise treat, you can form each ball around a glace cherry. — westivan Dec 20, 2008

Pasta with Chicken and Broccoli

Posted by Geema  

This has it all: quick, simple, tasty, and fairly healthy too! I added some diced fresh red capsicum (bell pepper) with the garlic as I didn't have the things to make a salad. The broccoli was easily added to the pasta pot in the last few minutes... — westivan Oct 16, 2008

Baked Fennel With Saffron

Posted by ~Rita~  

I'd never had fennel before and was a little apprehensive as to whether I'd enjoy it. The flavour was certainly mellower than the smell. Not sure if I'd have it again however that's just my tastebuds. A very easy recipe - thanks! Made for ZWT3. — westivan Jun 27, 2007

I can't stop eating these, they're so yummy! As a chocoholic I thought the cocoa was a bit low, but the hint of choc flavour matches so well with the roasted pecans. A keeper. Made for ZWT3 — westivan Jun 27, 2007

Swedish Meatballs With Lingonberry or Cranberry Sauce

Posted by French Tart  

This was delicious - leaves the frozen ones I've had at Ikea for dead LOL. I used cranberry sauce I had in the fridge instead of making my own and added about a tsp to the sauce while it was finishing off as I found it a little bland. Just me... — westivan Jun 25, 2007

Lemon Apple Braid

(1 person found this helpful) Posted by Charmie777  

This was sooooo easy! We don't get canned rolls here in Oz so I used a frozen puff pastry sheet instead which worked really well. DH and I ended up eating the whole lot ourselves - loved the combo of lemon & apple and the way the apple coating... — westivan Jun 19, 2007

Roasted Green Beans

I've made these several times now, and we prefer them with minced garlic added with the oil - the roasting brings out a lovely sweetness to both the beans and garlic. I've also made them successfully with frozen beans, I just add an extra 10 mins... — westivan Jun 19, 2007
