🌟 Rachel’s Iconic Trifle! 🌟

Who says you have to follow a recipe exactly? Rachel Green certainly didn’t. Here’s her unforgettable take on a classic English trifle—layered with love, a little chaos, and… beef sautéed with peas and onions. 😅

✨ Ingredients:

• Custard layer (store-bought or homemade)

• Whipped cream

• Ladyfingers

• Strawberries & bananas (for the fruit layer)

• Raspberry jam

• Beef sautéed with peas & onions (because, well… Rachel.)

• More whipped cream (because Joey would approve)

✨ Instructions:

1. Layer ladyfingers with jam.

2. Add custard and fresh fruit.

3. Sprinkle in… the beef (you could skip this, but would it really be Rachel’s trifle then?).

4. Top with whipped cream and more fruit.

5. Take a deep breath. Serve. Hope for the best.

And as Joey so famously said while devouring it:

“What’s not to like? Custard? Good. Jam? Good. Meat? Goooood!” 🤣

Would YOU try this?? 👀 Comment below!
