A few weeks ago I agreed to take up the challenge issued by Kelloggs to come up with a recipe to incorporate their newly launched “All Bran Fibre Toppers”. With an awesome prize on offer (a chance to win a trip to New York to attend the mother of all Mummy Blogger Conferences “Blog Her“) I thought I might as well toss my “toque blanche” into the ring and hope for the best!
As the deadline loomed closer, the larger my anxiety grew. Had I bitten off more than I could chew? Would I end up with egg on my face? Was I just a glutton for punishment?
But then I figured I was wasting all my energies trying to come up with witty food analogies and googling French food related translations and not enough on coming up with a suitable recipe.
Finally (frantically) inspiration struck… I’d cook a favourite dinner of The Husband’s that I’d first created last year for the his birthday (ie one that I couldnt really stuff up!) and incorporate the All Bran toppers into it. Sacre Bleu what sweet relief!
So I now humble present to you a completely scrummy chicken & chorizo pasta dish that will easily feed a family of four PLUS help increase your daily required fibre intake and promote better digestive health!
