The above image is one I took years ago, when I first started my blog. I was so proud of my efforts.  I can see my progress in the quality of my photos and am hence keeping it to remind me of my journey into the world of photography.

A few years ago we were invited to a friend’s house for lunch and were served a delectable appetizer.  I was really surprised to learn how quickly it could be made.  It’s a great dish to make when unexpected guests turn up. And it goes a long way.  Since then, I have made it in so many ways, every one of them equally delicious.  You can bake it in a pie dish or stuff it into vegetables like capsicum and bake it.  Either way, it’s a dish that makes you drool and it never lasts more than one sitting in our house. Make extra and save it for a lazy day.   This is how you make it.
