10 recipes you couldn't get enough of in April — The beginning of April caught the tail-end of Easter and, unsurprisingly, your top recipes reflect long-weekend favourites and lingering flavours of summer.

10. The ultimate pasta bake

Over-catered for the masses and now you’re stuck with a whole lot of leftover roast butternut? We know the drill. Turn them into this easy, moreish supper.

Don’t wait for Easter to roll around to get your hot cross bun fix. Plus, there’s little better than the aroma of freshy baked hot cross buns wafting through your house.

8. Toasted tuna mayo

Pan-fry these sandwiches for extra decadence (after spreading them with mayo rather than butter). Or, you could lose the bread and heap the tuna mayo onto hot baked potatoes instead.

7. Griddled croque monsieur

Was March a month of sandwiches? We’re certainly not complaining – especially not about this two-cheese sandwich extraordinaire.

4. Pork sausages, sweet tomato and potato bake

This one-tray wonder is consistently one of the most popular recipes on TASTE – and we’re not surprised. Pop it in the oven and forget about it ’til later.

3. Fish cakes with lemon caper aioli

These no-mash fish cakes are delicious as a light starter. You can also make small cakes (or even balls) to pass around on a platter with a large bowl of the aïoli for everyone to nibble on (double the fish cake quantities).

The hardest part will be waiting for this cheesecake to chill.

1. Ziploc bag no-churn ice cream

Remember when autumn felt like a distant memory? Us neither. But, judging by your favourite recipe of the month, you were clearly holding onto that summer feeling all March with this no-churn ice cream recipe.
