Fireside Dinner Menu # 25

A few more dinner ideas. A lot of favourites but if you try nothing else, please try the bacon pasta. It is the perfect sauce, it’s pretty and it is super easy as well.

The red wine sauce for the fillet also comes together beautifully and will impress anyone with minimal effort.

Fireside dinner menu # 5

This week there was a lot of chicken mainly because I felt guilty about starting the week off with fillet. How spoilt can you be?

The Thursday night pasta dish is one of my ultimate one-pot dishes. And the fancy little star indicates that a recipe will be dug up soon and shared with you. It currently exists in Afrikaans in my mother’s handwriting, so I just need to take a little time with it. The links to some of the other recipes are available in the downloadable PDF.

The cornbread on Sunday is however the perfect little loaf and I am happy to share that with you here:

1 small packet of self raising flour

1 tin of whole kernel corn (drained)

1 tin of milk (use the corn’s empty one)

2 eggs

a pinch of salt

Mix everything together, pour into a loaf pan and bake at about 180 degrees C for 35 to 45 minutes.
