This coming Monday is Queen’s Birthday and a long weekend. The last one we get until late October so make sure you enjoy it! For us here at Fresh, enjoyment usually involved friends, family and food! If you’re not working, it’s a great chance to get in the kitchen and have some fun. Make a special brunch or invite whānau and friends over for a pot luck dinner. You never know what you are going to get at pot luck, but it’s a cheap and tasty way of sharing a meal.
Or why not try these top five Feeding Our Families fresh ideas for weekend fare:
Fresh Ideas for long weekend fare:
- Popcorn - tastier, cheaper, and better for you than store-bought
- Fast ‘n easy pizza - no arguments as everyone can create their own tasty toppings
- Sweet chilli falafel wraps - prepare dinner in a flash
- Creamy rice pudding - perfect to cook on a wet or cold afternoon
- Creamy mushrooms on toast - great for a long weekend breakfast or lunch
Get the kids and grandkids involved too! It’s a good opportunity for them to learn about food – and they are more likely to try new things if they have helped make them.
