Brunch Pot

Description

Barefaced Eating is all about good food that has flavour and can be made quickly. This Brunch Pot is great and quick as a mid week evening meal if you use ingredients from a weekend breakfast. Always buy the best quality sausages, bacon and black pudding that you can afford and eat in moderation - which means a normal sized plate!

Note - When you are cooking your English breakfast, put an extra pack of sausages and a couple of extra slices of black pudding and bacon in to cook (look out for offers when buying an extra packs for a bargain ). Cool the meat quickly and store in the fridge for up to 3 days for you to make this lovely meal.

This a winner with children if you have fussy eaters at your table,
