Barbeque Time! Part 2

Well the weather wasn’t great but it managed to stay dry long enough for a successful BBQ! We feasted and chatted and laughed, a good time was had by all.
There was jerk chicken, delicious, sticky and so tender; pork & sweet chili sausages, a delight with a cheeky kick and assorted salads.
Followed by a GF strawberry & blueberry sponge of which I am soo proud!! I decided to use a GF flour from Dove’s farm and I simply followed the recipe for victoria sponge on the back of the packet! The cake turned out to be light and moist. and the Greek yogurt made such a lovely change to cream and finally, fruit kebabs with hot chocolate sauce mmmmmmm.
