Chicken Spinach Pide with Feta
Make on Fresco
I love this recipe. It first appeared in Nifty But Thrifty which is a great little family meals book if you are seeking more meals and less sweets using your Thermomix. I think this is a common request for me. Once you get a Thermomix you suddenly start making all sorts of sweet stuff, because there are loads of recipes out there for all that. This recipe is simple, feeds an army and great cheap family food, lunch or dinner. Plus leftovers...you can’t do better than that.
