I will probably get ostracised by all of my relations for sharing this with you; but I have decided to make public a recipe that has been handed down the Hughes family for generations. The potential benefits to the culinary arts are just too great for me to keep this secret any longer.
I remember the day that my father called me into the kitchen on my 18th birthday and, as was my right as eldest child, indoctrinated me into the ranks of the select few that knew the secret. And now, as keeper of this torch, I choose to pass it on to you. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you the bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich.

Ingredients
Bacon
Lettuce
Tomato
Bread
Butter
Method
Grill the bacon. Slice the tomato. Butter the bread. Place the bacon, sliced tomato, and a leaf of lettuce on a slice of buttered bread. Add ketchup to taste. Place another slice of bread on top.
Serving suggestion: Try putting the sandwich on a plate.
Do you have any secret family recipes you wish to share?

Frito Mallorquin.
Take some liver, potatoes, a green chilli (mild, so as not to overpower) and some spinach. chop everything up really small and fry together with some garlic and plenty of pepper. Maybe boil the potatoes first but hey…
My family’s super-secret macaroni and cheese recipe
Put 6 cups of water in a pot and add a little salt. When it boils, add a bunch of macaroni and stir occasionally until cooked. Drain and add 1/4 milk, 1/4 butter, and a packet of Kraft powdered cheese.
Stir until blended and serve on a plate.
our blt is a bit different. the bread is toasted, and we replace ketchup with mayonaise.
as for my family’s secret recipe:
open a box of cereal, any brand will do. pour contents into bowl, approximately half full. add milk just until cereal begins to float. serve with spoon.
warning: using a utensil other than a spoon will rob you of the precious cereal-flavored milk at the bottom. if you are without a spoon, slurping from the side of the bowl will suffice.
You’ll have to wait until you are 40 for the cottage pie recipe!
Ditch the ketchup, add a fried egg. Now that’s a sandwich!
Pine Float
Fill a pretty glass with water. Add toothpick. Serve. Wait for the resentment.
