Easy Recipe Ideas for Grand Final Weekend!

Although I’ve lived in Queensland for almost 12 years, I’m a still a Victorian by heart and just have to watch the AFL Grand Final each year, regardless of if my team is involved.  We usually celebrate the day by enjoying some traditional footy food such as sausage rolls, pasties and hot dogs – really it’s just an excuse to treat ourselves!!  If you are planning on watching the footy Grand Final (even if it’s not ‘real’ footy – I’m looking at you NRL!!) I’ve put together a collection of easy and yummy recipes that are guaranteed to be enjoyed by your family and friends – Happy Grand Final Weekend!
