Spinach pasta bake
1 onion
300g frozen spinach (defrost)
200g any pasta shapes
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour
2 cups milk

Melt the butter in a heavy-bottomed saute pan over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the flour and nutmeg and cook, stirring, for 2 more minutes. Add the milk and cook until thickened. Squeeze as much liquid as possible from the spinach and add the spinach to the sauce. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.
Mix the sauce with cooked pasta and transfer to a baking dish. Sprinkle with grated cheese on top. Bake for 20 minutes until hot and bubbly.

Japanese Bento box
Bento is a single-portion takeout or home-packed meal common in Japanese cuisine.
Bento can be elaborately arranged in a style called "kyaraben" ("character bento"). Kyaraben are typically decorated to look like popular characters from Japanese cartoons (anime), comic books (manga), or video games.
Here's our bento.

Take a Break
My recipe is published in a magazine!
Issue 25.
200g finely grated carrots
100g sugar
80ml vegetable oil
135g porridge oats
200g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp ground ginger
4-5 tbsp icing sugar
Preheat the oven to 170*C, gas 3 and grease a 26 cm round loose-bottomed tart tin.
Mix the carrots with the sugar and oil, then add the oats, flour, baking powder and ginger. Mix well and transfer the mixture to the tin, pressing down slightly.
Bake for 20-30 mins. Leave to cool in the tin for 5 mins, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
To make the icing, mix the icing sugar with just enough water to make a tick paste (about 1 tsp). Drizzle the cake with the icing, cut into triangles and serve.
