This pretty pavlova does as much feasting for the eyes as it does for the taste buds. A classic summer dessert is made more fun with the combination of tart pineapple and passionfruit together with the crunch of tropical Australian macadamias and coconut chips.

BBQ'd Mediterranean Chicken Breast with a simple Panzanella

While not a traditional Christmas dish this BBQ chicken and Panzanella has all the right colours and flavours for summer festivities in Australia. You could certainly try something similar with a stuffed Turkey roll. I love the fact it can be cooked outside o the BBQ and the salad thrown together in minutes. More time for enjoying the company.
