This is a great mid-week meal that any member of the family could cook up. The addition of the chorizo gives it a great smokey but not too spicy flavour. Bonus is that I had some leftover cooked chicken breast in the fridge so it made this super fast and easy. Ingredients: 1 chorizo sausage, sliced 500g Free Range...

We love pork mince for its versatility and that you can pack in heaps of flavours when using it. To make sure these meatballs had plenty of ‘punch’ I doubled the spices for this recipe. As an alternative, you could always finely chop a chorizo sausage or two and add it to the mix instead of the spices. ...

I love my slow cooker and use it all year round. The joy in having dinner done when we all get home after a long day is just the best. My new...

It’s also really good for school/work lunches – even served cold, it’s really yummy. Cheers, Alison Ingredients: 2 sheets of...
