We can’t get enough of the strawberries and watermelon at the moment. They have been so juicy this year! I am going to try your Mexibake this week – I’ve had the recipe printed for ages, btu haven’t got around to making it yet. I made the Baked Penne a few weeks ago too and the kids loved it! Thanks.

I’ve been reading your blog for a few months now, very inspiring… and thanks for sharing your recipes too. We tried the mexibake last week and it was a total hit!
Wish all of those fruits were in season here in the U.S.! Delicious!! Organges and pears are really in season here. Yummy! Beautifully colorful pictures.
