In today's Bite: Good food to see winter out

Make the most of hearty winter appetites and get through the last weeks of the chilly season by celebrating. Come together with family and friends over lots of good food. It could be relaxed bowls of

beef chilli

with all the toppings (from this week's

meal planner

) in front of sport or a more formal

tea party

that hints at what's around the corner.

Share the load and organise a pot-luck meal, we will be adding new recipes to our pot-luck

recipe collection

next week. Invite a few people for lunch and go plant-based with

Vietnamese pancakes

and

quick-pickled turmeric carrots

.

Our Monday night grilled

fish with warm Israeli couscous

and herbs would also be good to serve to friends for lunch.

Back to this week's

meal planner

, Warren has many more ways to serve his

beef chilli

, a

smoked fish pasta bake

and a warm

winter salad on cheesy polenta

.
