Raspberry smoothie from Super Duper Soups by Michael van Straten which looks an awful lot like a poster paint pot I once had. I used Mr M's blender/juicer thingummy for the first time (recently rediscovered at the back of a cupboard) and had lots of fun making a huge amount of mess in a bid to get rid of the pips.
It was delicious, if a little tart - we're going to try it with a dash of apple juice next time. I now have the smoothie bug - the blitz button is really quite hypnotic.
Smoothies are so great...for kids too, I can squeeze in so many different fruits which they wouldn't be able to eat in on sitting....but smoothies just disapear kindly.
ReplyDeleteI need help...we're going to a cottage this weekend...there will be 10 families going...so 18 adults in total, and I am responsible for one dinner.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Char
hmmm pink liquid goodness!!! Yummy!
ReplyDeleteGood grief! 18 adults!?! Are you mad? I'd go for a big vat of chilli, with rice (or jacket potatoes), sour cream and green beans. Or bangers and mash. Easy pud would be Eton mess...hope there's a big oven!!! Have fun!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words left on our blog regarding my Mural...I know...crazy, 18 adults. I was thinking today...stuffed chicken breasts and sausages-roast veggie couscous and rocket salad?
ReplyDeleteWhat do you think?

Thanks for the suggestions...I hope there's a big oven too!
ReplyDeleteIt's a 10 bedroom place...I'll post pics soon.

ReplyDeleteHi there! Just found your blog and it looks really nice! Love the photos you take, especially those of food, makes me hungry just looking at them!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much!
ReplyDeleteGoodness - now that you are handing out domestic advice you might have to rename your blog.
