Tasty Tuesday


Really enjoying trying a lot of new dinner recipes recently. I also had a lovely lunch out at a friends house and was designated to bring sweet treats, so tried a couple of newbies there too! A productive week, here's what we had.

I personally am really digging chicken at the moment, hell, who am I kidding - all the time. With our home made burgers, although we often change up the proteins, we always pile the same stuff on - cheese, bacon, sauce, egg etc. They're great, but fat laden and there's not much wiggle room for diversity. These Jerk chicken sliders were a start at beginning to branch out here. Although Damien and I both gave the chicken a thumbs up, neither of us liked the salsa. Back to the drawing board.


We made an avocado chicken salad croissant last fortnight and really liked it, but as per usual, we thought it could have done with some bacon. And then I came across this Chicken and Bacon Salad recipe. Voila. We enjoyed it a lot more. It's particularly important to note that I (Yes me!) exclaimed how much I liked the celery in the salad. Me, like celery. Holy hell, that's saying something.

These Mini Snickers Cheesecakes were a hit everywhere I palmed them off to. So happy with my bake and palm off regime that's  taken off.

And I must report that I have made Red Velvet Cake many times but the recipe for these Red Velvet Whoopie Pies will be one I use over and over again. Was delish.

Really enjoying my time in the kitchen again.  Looking forward to the coming week.
