This was one of my favourite meals when I was growing up. Little did I know that it was made from leftovers.
Ingredients: 3 – 4 cups of cold corned beef, diced ½ cup sliced green beans ½ cup corn ½ cup pickles (if I don't have any MOO pickles, I prefer Rosella Sweet Mustard Pickle, but use your favourite) 4 cups mashed potato 2 tsp butter, melted Method: Mix diced corned beef, beans, corn and pickles. Place in a greased pie dish. Mash the potatoes but don't add milk or butter. Spread over the top of the mixture in the pie dish. Brush the top with melted butter. Cook in a moderate oven (180 degrees) for 20 minutes until potato is golden and it is warmed through.

When you MOO pizza, using fresh herbs turns what could be a tasty pizza into a gourmet delight. And what better way to have fresh herbs for your pizza than to grow a "pizza garden" by growing some of the herbs that are commonly used on pizza. A typical pizza garden will contain basil and oregano, and perhaps thyme and parsley. You could also grow some of the other things that often go into pizza sauce, like garlic and roma tomatoes. If you want to make the garden larger, you can also add some common pizza toppings like capsicums and onions. A pizza garden is ideal for container gardening and is a wonderful introduction to gardening for children. Since children really love pizza, they should be able to relate to this type of garden very well. They’ll also have fun knowing what goes into one of their favourite foods. |
