Hi Mooria,
You could do a large pot of soup, Leek and Potato is easy and cheap. Double the amount here and it will serve 12. Just make sure you have 11 soup bowls lol....

Ingredients

400g (1lb) leeks
200g (8oz) potatoes
1 medium onion
4 tbsp oil
750ml vegetable stock
250ml milk
Salt & pepper

1. Slice the leeks and roughly chop the potatoes and onion. Saute the vegetables in hot oil for 10 minutes.

2. Add the stock and season with salt and pepper. Bring to the boil, cover and simmer for 20 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

3. Stir in the milk. Transfer to a liquidiser and blend until smooth. Reheat gently before serving.

If you have a hand held liquidiser all the better and so much easier to liquidise in the pot :-)




You may find some user starters here. As they are all vegan they will be suitabe for someone who is pregnant : http://www.recipesforvegans.co.uk/starters.htm
hi at new year must be scotch broth followed by steak pie with sausages then trifle cheap mints and to finish a wee drambuie . oh and a wee emmotional moment to remember all the friends and family who are not around anymore and you miss them , that scotland ! GREAT
I can recommend Leek, Potato and Bacon Soup or Curried Parsnip soup - both recipes can be fouund on www.bbc.co.uk under the Food and Recipes section.

Serve with lots of crusty bread and butter, cheap, delicious and very simple to make!!

Yum
Take two figs per person. Cut a cross in the top and open them up. Put on some blue cheese(don't know the name) Wrap palma ham around their waists, and put into a hot oven to cook. Place on a bed of rocket and drizzle with honey. No more than two each as they are filling !
Mooria - if it isn't too much trouble - and if you have the time - could you please let us know if we gave you what you needed or if we need to keep looking?

Thanks for your help.
