I have to admit I don’t usually use an independent recipe with so few reviews on Google. That however may be my mistake. Used this recipe this afternoon as it contained everything I had in the cupboard and these were the flavours I wanted as A- had an orange I wanted to use up and B – needed to make something for lunchboxes. This recipe is delicious. Simple to make. The only downside that they may not make the lunchboxes as my fussy hubby and youngest son have already eaten the majority of them which is a huge compliment. If I could upload a photo I would
Thank you so much for the lovely review. I’m so pleased your family enjoyed them. They don’t last long in this house either. Have a wonderful evening 😀
