You say potato

I mostly write my blog for me. Memories of what we have done as a family or my personal thoughts... like a diary for me to look back on in years to come. But for anyone else who has read them, you will know that I am pretty hung up on food. And my kids. And making food with my kids. And being healthy.

So when I was faced with a challenge of replacing my butter with a spread by Meadowlea, I accepted with some sceptisicm. Not a sceptic of Meadowlea or their abilities to make something yum, but more so of me being able to give up on my French 'Lescure' imported butter that costs me $10 for 250grams.

Sounds a bit snobby I know but I do love my gourmet foods. Apart from saving me some serious dough though, this challenge might also save my little ticker (65% less sat fat than butter).

These are some of the chicken tortillas we made with the kids this week (butter meadow lea them on one side, fill with your fav savoury ingrediants, sandwich with another tortilla on top & pan fry lightly till all melty & gooey). A bit like a Spanish toastie :)

 

 
So far there has been no difference. Taste wise, my family hasn't grunted 'but muuuuuuum, it tastes different" however I have noticed that it does look different when heated then cooled. Not better or worse, so it has been easy to do the switcheroo and there wouldn't be any reason to undo the 'roo either.
 So you say potato, I say putatoh. You say butter, I say Meadow Lea!
