I have an awesome jo seagar book but moved house a few weeks ago and for the life of me I just cannot find it. Does any one have her recipies for the following: pasta bake (not sure what its called) but it has a yummy meat sauce and you cook it on the stove and pour white sauce on it and pop it in the oven. The 2nd one I'm looking for is a choc slice. In the book the picture had 3 slices tied with rope of some sort. It has: nuts, saltanas, wine bikies as some of the ingredients and you put suga and 2 other things in the microwave for 30 second bursts. The 3rd one is the pizza muffins - 3 or 4 rashers of baccon, 1 cup pinapple, and flour etc. My son loves these muffins, I miss the choc fix (omg the slice is yummy lol) and the whole family actally eats the pasta bake :)

I love her recipes and they never fail. A bit heavy on the fat and sugar though.
