Leicestershire County Council's School Food Support Service (SFSS) has created a new book with school meal recipes which can be made at home.

The recipes chosen are some of the most popular from recent school meals menus in Leicestershire.

Classic dishes include cheese and potato pie and traditional shortcrust chicken pie and gravy and modern favourites including Spanish frittata and salmon tagliatelle.

Wendy Philp, Leicestershire County Council's head of the School Food Support Service, said: "Our school meals are proving to be so popular, this is a great way of making them available at home for everyone to enjoy.

"The book is full of tasty and nutritious meals which showcase the very best in school food."

The food support service currently provides school meals in 248 of Leicestershire's schools.

The new recipe book will be for sale at the launch for £2.99 and will be available at schools' parents' evenings.
