by lifesupportComment Published at 16:0516:054 comments4 comments1517 Visits1517 VisitsReport

If you can help i was given a can of Nestle Top 'n' Fill Caramel and i have never used it.

If you have a recipe using it could you please let me know.

Can you use it in a slice over the cooked base, then the caramel from the can then chocolate?  If  i did this do you have to bake the caramel again in the oven like you do condensed milk?

Thanks

My little boy loves tuna. Even though I don't. Now you can all different flavours in the small tins. Great for snacks or even to go with a meal. And hardly any left overs if any.  Just wanted to share with you guys

1 cup milk or formula
1 tbl cous cous
pinch of cinnamon
1/2 cup pureed fruit (or more depending on tastes)

Add the milk, cous cous and cinnamon together in a pot and on the lowest heat simer untill the mixture has thickened.

Remove from heat and serve swirled with pureed or chopped fruit.

GOLDEN CHICKEN

by nomeComment Published at 04:5804:580 comments0 comments38 Visits38 VisitsReport

My name is naomi. i have a 4 year old and a 5 year old. My 4 yr old has leep and behaviour issues when eating some veg and fruit as well as products with both natural and artificial preservities and additives. Here is a receipe that is both easy quick and free of natural and unnatural things.

Marinade

2 tbls of oil (anything but vegetable oil)

3 tblsp Golden syrup

2 shallots

1 clove of garlic(optional)

a pich of se salt and citric acid are optional

Use either chicken drumsticks with the marinade (leave together for 30mins if possible (not essential) and pan fry or bake.

Or use diced chicken (thigh or breast) and cook. Keep chicken together to stop marinade burning. I make kebabs by putting the diced chicken on kebab sticks and frying. The kebabs take between 5 and 10minutes in the frying pan or bbq.

ENJOY!!

chicken and pasta

by anonComment Published at 03:2203:221 comments1 comments18 Visits18 VisitsReport
I love to cook and tonight I chucked this together and thought I would share it with you all.
Cut 500g to 1kilo of chicken into cubes fry until lightly browned add a punnet of cherry tomotoes or sundried tomatoes if you like, add 3/4 cup halved button mushrooms and cook til tomatoes are shriveled. Cook pasta strain, stir through add some basil and oregano. Heat for a further 3-5 minutes and stir. Easy, simple, and plain. And Anthony loves it and it is easy to eat either as finger food or with a fork. Enjoy
