It gets complicated working on a 24 hour clock in both hemispheres! Sorry for the delay in getting this information posted. 0:)
A couple of hacks to note from the recipes I posted yesterday.
* The rissoles are great cold and used in salads but can also be heated up in gravy: This can be done with cooked sausages as well.
* Packet gravy mixes are cheap and take up very little room in your cupboards. But they can be used for multiple purposes; many include easy recipes and solutions for use of leftovers. i.e. doing a simple curried sausage dish that can be stretched by using added vegetables.
Another quick, cheap fix for a meal (and using up leftovers), is to combine leftovers or tinned foods (such as baked beans or canned spaggetti in tomato sauce) with jacket baked potatoes. As long as you've got your potatoes, you can add whatever you want (or whatever is in your fridge or supplies).
Now on to something sweet!
As to ultimate comfort food, there is nothing like hot, stewed apples; Especially with vanilla ice-cream and a sprinkling of cinnamon or nutmeg on top!
Or you can get creative with your own combination of favorite fruits and added extras.
If you want to try for something more (and have access to canned fruit), try your hand at a hot fruit salad!
Another favorite of mine is baked custard. You can add some sultanas or cooked rice into the mixture before you bake it, to stretch the recipe further.
A standard of teachers giving children something to cook in class (beyond popcorn) is the 1970s Chocolate Ripple Cake; the recipe can be adapted to other biscuits/cookies as well.
Otherwise known as an "Icebox Cake".
There are many variations.
Or for something else to make with your children or other family members, nobody has to be a cook in order to make a fresh fruit cake!
If you want to go dairy free or want something fresh, try your hand at a fruit sorbet, using your favorite fruits.
Enjoy! 0:)
