This week’s Better Homes and Gardens offers a jam-packed hour of practical advice and escapist entertainment, tackling everything from weeknight meal prep to the wilds of Canada and the bizarre beauty of a “corpse flower.”
Fast food takes on a whole new meaning when Johanna sits down with Simple Home Edit’s Nicole Maguire. They’ll explore budget-friendly ways to streamline midweek meals, complete with a quick and easy recipe for Bang Bang Prawn Tacos – because who has time for elaborate cooking on a Wednesday? Meanwhile, Adam continues his Canadian adventure, swapping the usual suburban backyard for the rugged beauty of British Columbia. He’ll be cooking salmon with a French chef and encountering First Nations master carver Calvin Hunt, offering a blend of culinary and cultural experiences.
Back on Australian soil, Colin fires up the barbie for some pork ribs with a BBQ pineapple glaze and lime-chilli salted pineapple slices. And for those with a green thumb, Charlie visits a stunning suburban garden created by amateur horticulturalists, proving that you don’t need a fancy degree to create a backyard oasis. Juliet adds a touch of DIY flair, showing viewers how to revamp lampshades without any sewing and craft a cordless outdoor lamp.
Finally, Dr. Harry takes us behind the scenes of guide dog training, introducing us to the dedicated trainers and adorable future guides. And because no episode of Better Homes and Gardens would be complete without a touch of the unusual, Graham shares insider stories about the Royal Botanic Gardens’ “corpse flower,” Putricia, which recently bloomed for the first time in 15 years, wowing online viewers across the globe. Tune in to Channel 7 and 7plus this Friday, February 28 at 7:00 pm to catch all the action.
