As much as we love cooking with new ingredients and experimenting, most days we're more about putting nutritious meals on the table without having to spend too much time in the kitchen.
With three children participating in after-school activities, Geoff Scott knows this all too well - his wife Jane does anyway - and her three family's favourite fish burgers, chicken tortillas and parmesan meatballs will be helpful to all, especially those settling in to another school term.
I've also cooked this chicken parmigiana and maple roast pork and apples recently - both very delicious dinners that are cooked quickly using few ingredients. Chicken cannelloni and beef and Asian greens stirfry are on the menu this week.
Aaron Brunet's savoury sprinkles are also weeknight wonders. Make them up and store them in airtight jars in the cupboard, ready to yummy-up simple salads and soups with a shake of the hand.
Vogel's bread is a constant on my shopping list and, for a very limited time, we can buy it in a bag designed by Dick Frizzell who, while proclaiming he's not the cook in the house, knows his coriander from his parsley and how to barbecue a perfect steak. Warren Elwin talks with Dick here and you can be in to win a poster of the Vogel's/Frizzell artwork here.
These two icons - Dick and Vogel's - have come together perfectly and you are among the first to know that the bread is on shelves as of today. Don't delay, there will be only a million loaves sold and this is your chance to own a unique piece of Frizzell artwork.
