Pasta with peppers, feta, and basil : page 161

This is a really tasty pasta with great umami flavour. The combination of tomato, feta, and basil is excellent. I usually skip the olives. Quick and easy to make and keeps well for several days.

Banana cake with orange icing : page 195

This makes an excellent cake, (not too sweet) and is also an adaptable recipe. I bake in a tube pan for about 40 minutes and also use spelt flour for about half the flour called for. Small amounts of dried fruit and nuts can also be added if desired. A tbsp of rum makes it extra delicious. Have made both with and without the icing. Used butter instead of margarine.
