12 oz. penne pasta, cooked and drained
1 T. finely chopped red onion
1 cup chopped bell peppers, red green and yellow mix

IMAGINE...

Imagine...



1) Imagine how a set of Splayds could simplify your life.
2) Imagine eating with one utensil, washing one utensil, and storing one utensil.
3) Imagine giving a unique, one-of-a-kind wedding gift.
4) Imagine going camping with only one utensil, the Splayd.





Tell us about your Splayd experience.

WHY THE SPLAYD OUTPERFORMS THE SPORK?

1. A Splayd is a fork, knife and a spoon in one utensil. A spork is only a spoon and fork.

2. A Splayd can scoop food on your plate with its flat edge, a spork has a rounded edge.

3. A Splayd can cut through chicken, steak, burritos, pizza... but will not cut your mouth. A spork cannot cut with its rounded edge.

4. A Splayd is dishwasher safe and 18/8 stainless steal.

5. A Splayd has the perfectly designed handle. A spork's handle is too narrow, short or the handle has holes

Aussie recipe I'm going to try

Honey Corn for the BBQ / Grill

Recipe found on Recipezaar (http://www.recipezaar.com/recipe/Honey-Corn-for -the-BBQ-Grill-202194)
35 min / 20 min prep The prep time includes cooling time for the butter, and you can pop back in the fridge after wrapping the corn so it is quite quick and easy to prepare.

SERVES 4-8
4 ears corn on the cob
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon honey
1 teaspoon garlic, crushed
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

1. Place butter & honey in a cup and microwave for around 30 seconds until just melted.
2. Stir through garlic and pepper.
3. Leave to cool 15 minutes in fridge.
4. (optional step) Cut ears of corn in half.
5. Brush mixture evenly over the corn and wrap in aluminum foil.
6. Cook over preheated BBQ grill 15-20 minutes over medium-high heat, turning often. The foil turning brown is a sign it's been long enough in one position and should be turned a little.
