Our family favourite is homemade chicken kiev!! Chicken breast breadcrumbed baked in the oven served with a mountain of crisp ice berg lettuce and butter and galic melted in a pan poured all over!! Yum!
It has to be Meat Gumbo! As long as you use onions, peppers and celery with paprika as your base you can add whatever other veggies you want.
My offbeat dish and the most popular request from my partner is Spicy Sausage Casserole – I make it with local sausages – fried lightly til browned along with some chopped onion and garlic. I chop the sausages up and put in a casserole dish with the onion and garlic and add a tin of chopped tomatoes, and whatever tinned veg I fancy – normally from a selection of sweetcorn, red kidney beans, peas, carrots, new potatoes etc.. I then add a big spoon on chilli powder, teaspoon of mustard, dash of hot pepper sauce and some worchester sauce. Stick in oven for about an hour and add some gravy granules to thicken the sauce if needed.
It’s a lovely cheap dish and use’s whatever tinned veg I have in the cupboard so is always a bit different each time.

Salmon, topped with philledilphia with lemon juice, herbs served with pasta with tomatoes
For us it has to be quesadillas because we can have all sorts of fillings, they take less than a minute each to make and everyone can eat the things they like without any drama… they are great finger food for the toddler, good for hiding veggies in for our little carnivore and best of all, they are cheap. We spice the adults ones up with some pepperjack cheese and chunky guacamole.

My favourite family meal is homemade chicken parmesan with cheesy croquettes, the parmesan is a chicken breast stuffed with garlic mushrooms and mozzerella or in my boyfriends case thin slices of chroitzo and wrapped in parma ham or bacon if we cannot get hold of any. lightly fried in a pan to sear the wrapped chicken before cooking in the oven for 20 minutes
