Coronation Quiche
I finally decided to make the controversial Coronation Quiche. I have to say, it's rather underwhelming. I had to hold back from adding shallots, and more cheese. I think it's a risky thing to make for guests due to the addition of tarragon, which you either love or hate. It's described on the King's website as A deep quiche with a crisp, light pastry case and delicate flavours of Spinach, Broad Beans and fresh Tarragon. Eat hot or cold with a green salad and boiled new potatoes - perfect for a Coronation Big Lunch! I beg to differ. Give me Queen Elizabeth II's Coronation Chicken!

Marinated Brussel Sprouts
These Marinated Brussels Sprouts are delicious and healthy. They are made by marinating Brussels sprouts in a flavorful mixture of Dijon mustard, maple syrup, soy sauce, and garlic. The marinade helps to tenderize the Brussels sprouts and infuse them with flavor. I marinated these for 24 hours and then roasted them in a hot oven until crispy. You can also put them in an air fryer.
