Beef with Horseradish Cream and Hot American Chicken Salad
|
The Hot American Chicken Salad is quick and easy and works well served with a green salad. The Beef with Horseradish cream is a family favourite and inspired by a Mary Berry recipe. It works well with a serving of mash potato and green beans. I hope that you enjoy it.
