Picking Potatoes

When you are choosing potatoes for a recipe, remember that waxy potatoes and baby new potatoes are excellent for salads; large Kerr's Pinks or Golden Wonders are good for baking and Maris Pipers are the potato of choice by chefs for the best mashed potatoes.

Recipes for Seniors and Convalescers
We noticed that there weren't many tasty recipes for seniors who needed building up or people who were convalescing. The ones we found were more worthy than tantalising. And often the person who is caring for an elderly relative is at a loss for new ideas for nutritious meals that can be cooked in a lunchtime.

We spoke to Bluebird Care who offer a home care service and they suggested that we come up with recipes that would help their carers to offer nutritious meals to their clients. They have kindly said we can share a selection with our readers. Our expert chef Mark Doe and nutritionist Susan Fitzgerald came up with recipes that fit the bill perfectly (see below).

Click here for tasty easy recipes for Seniors including:
Leek and Potato Soup
Quick Cottage Pie
Braised Steak and Onions
Herby Chicken Gougons
Fresh Fruit Salad

The Greatfood.ie recipes are tested in our Test Kitchen which is kindly sponsored by the fantastic Mobalpa Kitchens Dublin and Hafele who supplied the foolproof Gorenje kitchen equipment.
