Playful honey-sweetened cakes topped with creamy icing make tasty beehives. Busy buzzing bees fly around them just waiting to be snatched by sticky fingers. You can buy honeycomb at health food stores.
These mummies are none other than phyllo-wrapped beef with a hint of curry.
Rhubarb cooked in a double boiler stays more intact than when it's stewed, plus it looks pretty beside the fresh strawberries.
Everyday ground spices add oodles of flavour to simple ground beef. If spicy dishes are right up your alley, add a generous pinch of cayenne pepper along with the cumin and curry powder. Serve topped with a dollop of yogurt, if desired. Cost: $2.40/serving
