Tinkering with a Recipe

Hello!
I had a thought to make us a tart for lunch.
It only needed some diced pumpkin to be roasted to start but I added some red onion and capsicum too:


add Fetta cheese... 80g in recipe but I added half the block (100g) and could have had even more!
4 eggs beaten in milk and poured over:


fork through some carmelised onion (from a jar - easy as!).  
Didn't have any Rosemary, so used a little Sage, Thyme and Garlic sprinkle instead:


I didn't have a proper sized tart pan, so a bit of a pinch together of each corner of the puff pastry on top of some baking paper should work:


... it did, some mixture escaped but, having being caught by the baking paper, cooked into some nice crunchies underneath:

Was yummy with a dab of homemade chutney (courtesy of our lovely neighbour):


The best thing was having the cold leftovers later on. 
For some reason, the flavours really come through when its cold ... even hubby agreed!

Taking Tea ~ Happy PPF !

Hello!

My goodness, it's Friday again! 

Here's my entry in this week's Paint Party Friday - where the happiest of artists gather, and everyone's welcome:

"Taking Tea" Acrylic and Watercolour on Card Stock
It was one of those paintings that I'd put aside... not sent to the person for whom it was originally intended but,  as life would have it, it became the perfect little acceptance card for an invitation to tea a year or so after it was exiled to the cupboard!
