Devils on Horseback This is sometimes called Angels on Horseback - Dunno why. Simple to make - just wrap stoned dates with a short length of streaky bacon, secure with a short wooden skewer, a wooden cocktail stick works well, and oven bake at 175 degs. watch out as they burn easily - think it's the sugar in the dates.

Moore Wilsons - a Wgtn fresh food and warehouse sells nibbles for about $8 per box, around 80 pieces in a box. Things like spring rolls and bit size samoas, it was great for our last dinner party.

Salmon and Cream Cheese roll ups. haven't read the whole thread so hope this hasn't been posted b4 lol -Mix tog 1 tin salmon with 250g cream cheese (or normal pot cream cheese and 2 X salmon). Mix well with a fork, mashing till no white lumps. Season with S & P. Take sandwich bread, remove crusts, spread on fish mix (no butter) and roll from corner to corner. Make sure you have a good 'dab' on that last corner so they 'stick' and don't unroll lol. You can also cut these in half to go further. Using the LITE version Cream Cheese is just as good and better!:o)

An easy non alcoholic punch 1 x 3 litre pink grapefruit juice,3 x Cranberry Juice ( the proper one in glass bottles) 2 x 1 litre Pink Grapefruit juice in cardboard carton, 1 Huge bottle lemonade, sugar syrup made by boiling 1 cup sugar with 1 cup water, mint leaves and sliced or 1/2'd strawberries. Have all the liquids and syrup well chilled. Mix all the juices in a punch bowl, add lemonade, enough sugar syrup to give the 'right' taste ( you will taste the difference). Add ice and the mint and strawberries. This is a lovely coloured punch too!

Hi Pam. your thread continues. lovely to see it here still, with all the wealth of recipes it includes :-)
Something a bit different. Ginger and Plum Trifle
I made a triple amount of Smiley-Cherub's Ginger Loaf last night,making it as a loaf and a cake, and tonight I've used some of it to make a trifle.
I cut the loaf-pan size of it in half horizontally and lengthwise, spread raspberry jam on the length of each piece, then cut them into small squares, about 2cm square. Made custard that's a little thicker than usual. Opened a jar of preserved plums.
I placed ginger loaf pieces around the bottom of a lovely bowl. Drizzled plum juice over them all. Placed whole plums through the loaf pieces. Another layer of ginger loaf and plums, and more juice drizzled over the loaf pieces. Poured the just-made custard over, using a knife to lift back loaf pieces so the custard went through all the loaf pieces and plums. Covered with plastic wrap and chilled. We served it like that, and you can decorate as you want.
Delicious, with the spices in the loaf, the tangy plum flavour, smooth custard and extra tang of the raspberry jam.
A definite 'make-again' recipe. :-)
For anyone wanting to make the ginger loaf, it's Smiley-Cherubs delicious recipe she posted here a few years ago -
Pour into a baking paper lined loaf tin and cook at 180°C about 35 mins or ready when tested with skewer etc.
Enjoy.)

Julie, that sounds delicious. Might be a goodie to add to the ginger gems thread which ended up being anything with ginger in it!
