Chicken Pasta – creamy chicken pasta works with so many different accompaniments. Julia prepared her chicken with creamy mustard sauce and added wilted baby spinach. This dish also works well with pumpkin or cherry tomatoes.

FRIDAY
Fish and Chips – I love fish and chips on a Friday night. You can keep them simple, or get a little bit fancy. Julia went fabulously fancy with her macadamia crusted barramundi, mango salsa, and garlic and parmesan chips. Delicious!

SATURDAY
Chickpea and Vegetable Curry – I love a good curry in winter, and this curry is definitely a good immune-boosting meal to have in the cold and flu season. Julia served her creamy chickpea and vegetable curry with basmati rice and naan bread.

SUNDAY
Bacon and Cheese Croquettes – these are very tasty and easy to make, and go down a treat on a cold winter night. Julia served her bacon and cheese croquettes with a simple salad.

BAKING
Blueberry Muffins – I love to make blueberry muffins too! They are great to have as a quick go to for breakfasts on the run, afternoon snacks, or lunchbox fillers. These crunchy topped ones are delicious and freeze well too.
