Ginger-Nut No Cake Trifle

(Originally Nataniël’s Red Grape Trifle)

Serves 10

Allow enough time for two sets of jelly to set

Another one of my Christmas recipes that I borrowed and changed to suit my pantry. Find Nataniël’s original, jelly-free Red Grape Trifle on expressoshow.com. This banting safe summer desert is a fresh cool-down after a heavy meal.

Pumpkin Casserole

Serves 10 - 12

It pains me deeply to admit that this incredible and incredibly simple recipe was not passed on from my family (in fact, I passed it on to my family). I went a-browsing one day for a pumpkin “pie” that you serve with the main course and took all the work out of it for you! The original was submitted to allrecipes.com by Lori DeLosh.

It’s madly popular with everyone who tastes it and has been had for seconds, thirds, desert, afternoon seconds and breakfast.  So seeing as though there’s always some milk and pumpkin left, I normally make mine one and half times.

Deliciously creamy golden goodness just into the oven.
