Easter marks the changing of the seasons; the days are getting cooler, the nights are drawing in and we are all squeezing out the last few drops of summer. This includes those final BBQs before we begin our autumn/winter hibernation! If your upcoming long weekend includes a BBQ with friends and family, this is the perfect ‘throw together’ dish which looks beautiful, tastes amazing, and is packed full of healthy ingredients.

 

San Remo’s new Ready Pasta range, which can be heated in 90 seconds, means you can spend even less time preparing food this weekend and more time chasing the Easter Bunny with your kiddiwinks!
