    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    Might I sugges this cake?

    http://community.rivercottage.net/users/Winters%20on%20the%20way/recipes/pear-and-almond-cake

    Not made it myself yet but have been served it and it was delish :D

    Strangely enough I ended up making pear and almond cake, without even seeing your post! I never thought of caramelising the pears first though, which sounds yummy - I'll have to try that next time.
    Back after a very long break!

    Try pear and ginger crumble its amazing! Stew the pears with some sugar and ground ginger plus some sultanas (or something similar) and top with crumble mix.
  • A bit late but here's mine for the week:

    Tuesday: Bangers and Mash w/ LO stuffing
    Wednesday: Home-made bruschetta with tuna and mozarella bake
    Thursday: Vietnamese chicken (inspired by Champys) and sweet chilli chicken with sticky dirty rice
    Friday: chorizo and sun-dried tomato pasta
    Saturday: Falafel in wraps with salad
    Sunday: Chicken roast dinner and trimmings

    Lunches will be mostly be LO soups for me and sandwiches, wraps and salads for sons.

    I also have a load of fruit pots in fruit juice and fruit and jelly from an Approved Food order for desserts. But I am going to attempt to make Frumenty and perhaps Marchpane after reading a book about 'long ago' food. More of an Easter holiday project with the boys rather than for meals.
