Mouth-watering Extra Lean Beef Burgers:

* Also goes well with homemade sweet potato chips
And to make sure you get your just deserts, why not try…
Jo’s Country Pudding: Vale Country Lass
The perfect ending to a BBQ feast!
Ingredients:
Method:
* Melt the marg, 2 ounces of sugar, and the chocolate
* Peal and chop apples and place in a large pan together with a small amount of water (enough to cover the bottom of the pan). Add all the remaining sugar (4 ounces) and stew until the apples have melted down to a “sauce like” consistency]
* Put the biscuits into a plastic sandwich bag (double up in case it splits), and crush the biscuits with a rolling pin or bottom of a pan (this is great fun if you’ve had a trying day!)
* Once the chocolate, marg, and sugar have melted, mix with the crushed biscuits and leave to cool
* Once everything is cool, layer up the apples and biscuits in a transparent bowl (as it looks pretty once it’s layered up). Start with the apple, and then add a layer of biscuits etc.
* Chill in the fridge for 24 hours, and serve cold with thick double cream! Yummy!
For all the veggie lovers, Brook brings you…
30 Second Veggie Kebabs
Ingredients:
Method:
* Defrost the quorn meat thoroughly
* Chop the vegetables and halloumi cheese into rough chunks
* Stick a couple of pieces of each ingredient onto a wooden skewer and then BBQ until piping hot and slightly blackened… Mmmmmmm!
It’s sizzling, it’s hot, it’s exotic and simply delicious, it’s…
Steve’s Tasty Thai Marinade
Steve’s Instructions
* Throw everything into a bowl
* Add a little extra chili just in case 1 teaspoon hasn’t enough kick
* Add whatever meat you’re planning to BBQ into the bowl
* One more pinch of chili for luck
* Cover the bowl, pop in the fridge and marinade for 3 hours min
* Remove meat from fridge, final sprinkle of chili just in case
* Fire up the Barbie, grab the tongs and slap on the meat
* After 5 to 10 minutes remove meat, serve to friends preferable with Singha beer and obviously a refreshing glass of Feel Good sparkling juice, which incidentally has 100% natural ingredients, absolutely no added sugar and counts as 1 of your 5 a day in every glass (we can’t resist!)
And if you prefer something a little closer to home, why not try…
Claire’s Scottish Whisky Marinade
Up in Bonny Scotland it’s fairly rare we get the opportunity for a BBQ so when we do it’s gung-ho and ‘taps aff’ which refers to the local men removing their t-shirts at any glimmer of sunshine!
This is a really simple recipe for a Whisky Marinade, which you can put on anything from steak, to chicken and prawns, to make a really tasty dish that will make all your friends say, ‘Wow!’
You’ll need:
And here’s how to do it:
* Crush the garlic and, if you choose to use it, finely chop the fresh chilli.
* Whisk together all of the ingredients in a decent sized bowl, big enough to fit a chunk of the meat you’re using in it as well.
* Once you’ve made the marinade, add you first steak (or whatever meat you’re using) and gently massage the marinade into the meat for a couple of minutes. Repeat for each steak and place in a baking tray.
* Poor remaining marinade from the bowl over the meat.
* Cover, and leave in the fridge over night.
* Place on a medium-hot grill and cook as you desire, and that’s it – simples! Enjoy!
And Des has a whole list of fantastic marinades – time to crack open the BBQ and get experimenting with this little lot. Des hasn’t provided measurements, so it’s test, taste, trial and error. (Tip: fresh or dried herbs can be used)
General Marinade (very good with fish)
Meat Marinade
Lamb Marinade
Chicken Marinade
Pepper Marinade
(Cook this marinade in a pan FIRST and then add to cooked meet)
Piri-Piri Lemon Marinade
Chris’s BBQ kebabs
- First, soak your kebab sticks in water until you need them – at least half an hour to stop them burning.
- Then put some small chunks of chicken in a marinade of equal proportions of tomato ketchup, soy sauce, maple syrup, and a dash of Worcester sauce, leave for half an hour, or an hour if you have it.
- While that’s marinating, chop up chunks of peppers, and wash some small cherry tomatoes.
- Next, skewer the pieces onto wooden kebab sticks, alternating between the 3 until each stick is almost full apart from an inch at either end.
- Now barbecue them! Take care as the sugar in the syrup will burn if left over too high a heat for too long… And enjoy
For a veggie alternative to kebabs, try Olivia’s Halloumi and Tomato Skewers
You will need:
- Halloumi Cheese
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Skewers
- Olive oil – 3 tablespoons should do
- Mixed herbs
* Put the oil and herbs on a plate
* Cut the Halloumi into slices – about 2 cm thick
* Put Halloumi slices onto the oil, just enough to coat it not drown it
* Place Halloumi slices and cherry tomatoes alternately onto the skewers
* BBQ until the Halloumi is just browning and the tomatoes have started to soften.
Mmmmmm…
Olivia goes bananas!
You will need:
- A banana for every person
- A bag of buttons
- A BBQ (preferably one won via our competition)
* Get a banana in it’s skin – one per person
* Slice down the middle vertically on the inside of the curve – creating a groove
* Place the buttons in the groove
* Put on the bbq – probably best on some foil, so you don’t lose the chocolate
The banana skin will go black, don’t worry it’s supposed to do this. Take it off the BBQ when the chocolate is melted. Enjoy with some lovely vanilla ice-cream or greek yoghurt – whatever takes your fancy.
It’s Dan’s turn…
Sweetcorn cobs with soy sauce
You wouldn’t expect the combination of flavours to work but it really does. Some people boil sweetcorn – whilst this is borderline acceptable, it should be widely acknowledged that sweetcorn cooked over hot coals is about as close as a vegetarian can get to BBQ heaven.
What you need:
Sweetcorn cobs – however many you like
Soy Sauce – 1 bottle
Butter – a small amount
Method:
*Place the cobs into a bowl or onto a plate
* Drizzle a line of soy sauce over the length of each cob
* Rotate the cobs and drizzle the other side with more soy sauce
* Add a few small dabs of butter to each cob
* Place on a hot BBQ and grill until slightly browned and deliciously tender
* Eat those bad boys
Yetty’s Nigeria Style BBQ Plantain (Booli)
Simple but tasty…
Ingredients:
1 plantain per person
A tea spoon of cooking oil
Instructions:
* Ripe plantain (yellow skinned) not too firm and not too soft.
* Peal skin of plantain and place on the barbecue grill for 7mins to 12mins depending on preference
* Turn occasionally so all sides are well cooked
* Usually enjoyed with peanuts, grilled fish or as side on plate!
Go on and give it a try…:-)
And for something a little bizarre, Sam brings you:
Pud a la Saucisson
So my BBQ recipe is essentially one big plate-sized Yorkshire pudding, filled to the brim with sausages and beans!
All you need is a couple of shop-bought giant Yorkshire puddings (because who has time to actually make them from scratch at a BBQ), a pack of sausages, and a tin of beans – feeds two large northerners.
I think the procedure is fairly straightforward (cook sausages, add beans; put amalgam into Yorkshire pudding), and could cost as little as £2.50 – provided you shop around a little.
I have innumerable memories of this meal!
So there you have it: Pud a la Saucissons
Watch this space – there is much, much more to come!!!!!!!!!!!!
(If you have any food allergies, make sure you check the ingredients carefully )

The Feel Good Team x
Hi
I’m Sarah! I’m the International Sales Manager for Feel Good and I started about 6 months ago – so I’m pretty new to the team.
For my Feelgoodess Days I’ll be volunteering at a charity called Centre 404. The centre is based in Islington, North London and is dedicated to supporting people with learning disabilities and their families.
I first heard about Centre 404 on the TV programme ‘The Secret Millionaire’ and was inspired to contact them when I saw the brilliant work they are doing in the community.
My time at Centre 404 will be spent helping out in the Gardening club on Wednesday afternoons. At the Club visitors to the centre learn new skills, have fun and interact in a relaxed and friendly environment.
I’ll be working at Centre 404 for the next 10 weeks so I’ll let you know how I get on…
