More Creativity

Like we said, we love creative packaging and their seems to be so much of it in South Africa.

Everyday we seem to encounter another cleverly designed logo / brand.

Don't these peppers stuffed with yoghurt and feta look absolutely amazing...YUM!

Serves 4 - 6

6 red peppers
266ml feta, crumbled
30ml olive oil
30ml plain greek yoghurt
15ml fresh parsley minced
5ml lemon zest
2.5ml dried oregano
2 egg yolks
salt and pepper to taste
125ml grated parmesan cheese

1. Place the peppers on a rack and grill them, turning once, until just soft - about 5 minutes. Transfer to a rack to
cool.
2. In a large bowl, whip the feta, oil, yoghurt, parsley, zest, oregano, egg yolks and season to taste with salt and
pepper.
3. Cut the peppers in half and scoop out the seeds and ribs. Stuff each pepper with the feta filling.
4. Transfer the peppers to a baking sheet and chill for 30 minutes. Sprinkle the grated parmesan over the peppers
and grill for 30 minutes or until golden brown and bubbly.

Love the packaging!

We love things that are well packaged. Makes you want to buy it and try it, doesn't it?

Their website's pretty cool too! http://www.bosicetea.com

It's made by the same guys that do Afro tea & Afro coffee so it's surely gotta taste good?

We can't wait to try it out...

Thanks to 10and5 for the link!

We absolutely adore this gorgeous idea - cheesecake baked in little jars! You can use any type of fruit for the topping and a mish-mash of old jam jars will also add to the fun of making them.

Ingredients

For the base

120g butter

200g tennis biscuits

70g brown sugar

pinch of salt

For the cheesecake batter

453g cream cheese

225ml mascarpone

110ml sour cream

200g sugar

juice from 1/2 lemon

1/2 tsp salt

2 large eggs

30g flour

Method

Preheat the oven to 175 degrees celcius.

First make the crumbs:

1. Melt the butter.

2. Place the biscuits, sugar and salt in a food processor and process until

fine. Pour the melted butter over the crumbs and mix well.

3. Press the crumbs into the bottom of the jars and set aside for the batter.

Then make the cheesecake batter:

1. Put all the ingredients except the flour into the food processor. Process until

fully incorporated.

2. Sprinkle the flour over the batter and process again.

3. Pour the batter into each jar, making sure you leave enough room on top so you

can fill with the topping later. Tap the jars to let out the air bubbles.

4. Place the jars in a deep roasting pan, fill the pan with hot water until 2/3 way

up the side of the shortest jar.

5. Lower the oven to 160 degrees celcius and bake on top rack for 40 minutes.

Roast the fruit of your choice in the oven topped with a crumble (50g sugar mixed with 1 tbsp flour and juice of half lemon) until soft (not mushy) and then spoon the mixture over the cheesecake and serve!
