Great Holiday Recipes...

Here are a couple of recipes you won't find in any Women's Weekly cookbook. It's taken several months, dozens of taste testers and a handful of highly skilled chefs to perfect each one.

The Association has finally been granted permission to re-print them in this month's edition of Gateway, in full. They come with a complete satisfaction guarantee and have been triple-tested in our test kitchen.

Ingredients

Six dozen eggs, 3kgs minced steak, 3kgs cubed chicken breasts, 5kgs potatoes, 1kg coffee, 8 litres milk, 1 large pavlova, 2 large sponge cakes, 2 litres cream, 2 doz scones, etc, etc, etc.
2 dedicated AHDA(NSW) staff members
2 committed volunteers
1 mini bus
2 cars
Lots of stamina
10 enthusiastic holiday-makers from the community
5 hopefully sunny days
1 great venue (preferably "Camp Breakaway" at San Remo on the NSW Central
Coast)
An assortment of activities

Method

Take the five days. Gradually add the holiday-makers, the staff, the volunteers, the mini-bus and the cars.

Fold in the venue and the remaining ingredients until well combined, making sure that you add plenty of activities such as walks, Uno, trivia quizzes, cards, dominos, hookey and lawn bowls into the mix.

Set aside to rest.

Result

Ten holiday-makers who've had great fun and a very enjoyable five days at "Camp Breakaway" on the Central Coast and four tired but elated staff members and volunteers who've had just as much fun as everyone else!

Alternative Method

Add two nurses.

Replace ten enthusiastic holiday-makers from the community with seven holiday-makers who live at Huntington's Lodge or in a nursing home. Replace five days with three days.

Combine ingredients as before and then set aside to rest.

Result

Another successful venture!
