Apple cinnamon swirl & grilled cheese sandwiches

Yikes. Imagine a cinnamon swirl from Brumby’s or Baker’s Delight coupled with thick apple slices and cheese. Surprisingly good, it’s best served with caramelised apple and cheddar.

Pretzel M&Ms

Don't miss a beat with our FREE daily newsletter

When you don’t feel like cooking or sticking something in a sandwich press, get down to your local USA foods for some pretzel M&Ms. Although they will make you violently ill if consumed above the average serving size, they’re sooo good. Challenge your self control.

 

                       

Strawberry balsamic pizza with chicken, sweet onion & bacon

Substitute pineapple with strawberries and you’ve got an equally yummy pizza. Quick to melt in your mouth, we can imagine the recipe wouldn’t hurt with some goat’s cheese or feta.

Watermelon & feta bites

Another successful cheese and fruit combo. Perfect for the much anticipated summer, the juicy treat is even more delectable with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar. Preferably designed with a chunk of feta between two pieces of watermelon, held together with a skewer. You could even grill the watermelon.

Beef tenderloins with raspberry chimichurri

Utterly incomprehensible, the beef and raspberry combo is fab. The Argentinian condiment chimichurri can be made by blending packaged raspberries with parsley, orange zest, lemon zest, garlic and cumin. Don’t knock it till you try it.
