    "This was delicious! I swapped the blackberries for raspberries and I didn't have pistachios so added some jumbo oats to make it crunchy.Got the thumbs up from my husband so definitely will be making again "

    "lovely and wholesome dinner - did it with one pack of 500g mince - and this did for 2 evening meals although both times my husband had seconds. Didn't put in so much water as like it nice and thick and added fresh thyme at the end which was lovely. Will most likely make it again- just like shepherds pie with the potatoes inside "

    "This was easy to make with store cupboard ingredients and tasted lovely. Shelly is right the cornflour made the chicken lovely and moist. "

    "I have been waiting for these to come on the GF website since making them from the Sept issue as they are absolutely gorgeous and really easy to make. My husband keeps asking for more! I found that they come up very big so tend to use a side plate as a template and make double the amount instead of 4 large ones. I have made them twice now and freeze the 6 that are left. I did use a little less blk pepper but they are a great sunday lunch dinner as well as pack up. Also I was very pleased with myelf as i don't usually attempt pastry but it worked out great!!!!"

    "These were nice but I like my biscuits more crunchy not as chewy as these were.They did go down very well but I wouldn't make again as they were too soft "
