There arent any Turkey Twizzlers in this book (thanks, Jamie Oliver!)
Instead, there are bucketloads of tasty childhood favourites, like Sprinkle Cake, Roast Dinners, Cheese and Onion Pie, Chocolate Cake and Pink Custard, Butterscotch Tart, Sausage and Mash, Beef Stew, Jam Roly-Poly and much more.
With simple instructions and stunning illustrations, this book is perfect for anyone wanting to relive yesteryear and is divided into three nostalgia-filled sections:
BREAK-TIME BITES return to the sandwich counter, choose your jacket potato fillings and load up on soup with these quick makes.
CANTEEN CLASSICS a collection of the best sumptuous, savoury dishes from the 1970s to now.
SWEET TREATS all the puds, traybakes and custard you want.
School Dinner Heaven is the perfect book for anyone wanting to rediscover the classic dishes, as well as a few modern-day school dinners!
Its dinner time!
