Cilantro-Lime Rice
Very similar to the rice of a famous burrito place, this rice pairs well with Mexican food and can be used as a filler in burritos.
Good Old Meat Pie
A great deep dish meat pie made with potatoes, carrots and peas in a rich gravy. Lamb chicken or pork can be used in place of beef. A great recipe for leftover meat!
