I can’t get enough of these fully loaded salad plates that I’ve been making for Corks and me lately. Making, more like totally devouring, I should say.

What do you usually cook on the barbie? Snags? Rissoles? A piece of steak? Occasionally we’ll do a butterflied leg of lamb or I’ll make my own kebabs.
