Had enough of all that food over Xmas? Overdone your eating on ham, turkey, sausages and meat in general? Here’s a vegetarian soup to help you through the cold windy days……
Spicy Chicken Wings
November 2nd, 2011 Adults love them and for children, you could always do a few with regular chutney instead of chilli sauce, or honey too, so it’s not hot, but still delicious!!
Roast pumpkin soup with blue cheese
October 31st, 2011 Not sure what to do with all those extra pumpkins? Or not sure what to do with all the insides of pumpkins you have from the carvings? Here’s a wonderful idea!
Broad beans, Feta and crisp Parma ham with lemon dressing
October 21st, 2011 Broad beans work wonderfully with these bold flavours. Feta has that amazing salty taste, and the lemon cuts a ‘zing ‘ right through it all.
Cobweb Fudge with Chocolate Spiders
September 29th, 2011 There can’t be anything better than fudge. Sickly sweet, but you can never get enough. Here’s a Halloween idea.
Scrumptious scallops
September 19th, 2011 I never really ate scallops in a big way before, I must admit to not understanding the huge appeal. However, the other day I had dinner at a restaurant, and their scallops were AMAZING! So, in honour of them here’s a recipe to try.
Cooking with children
May 24th, 2011 Little does she know it’s communication, and bonding, and family time together, probably 3 things she’ll hate to do soon, but she just thinks it’s cooking! So I’m going to cook on!
Eggs Wraps
December 15th, 2010 I never thought of wrapping eggs in a Tortilla wrap until I saw a picture if it, but it’s a great idea. Kinda like a egg pancake. I guess you could make pancakes and do it with that too!
Breakfast Soup with Toast Fingers
December 10th, 2010 Another interesting way to make breakfast a fun and entertaining meal for kids! This is rather left field for me , but now and then it’s good to try something TOTALLY different for those little ones…
Toad in the whole with mustard crème fraiche sauce & pickled red cabbage
October 15th, 2010 Winter is almost here. We need to stock up on wholesome food to see us through the winter and toad in the hole is one of the ultimate recipes that can help us squirrel away some calories for the impending cold months.
Tagliatelle with Ragu and Italian sausage
September 28th, 2010 Ok, so I admit I am not a big one for pasta, and I think some Italian dishes are such a production, you are often too exhausted to eat them afterwards. However, my family seems to think they are great, so he’re’s one with Italian sausage you can try.
For an excellent tasting sauce for this dish of pasta with sausages, be sure to use fresh ones from a butcher or a good Italian deli.
Mushroom and Asparagus Quiche
September 24th, 2010 This mushroom and asparagus quiche recipe has no milk ( it uses soy milk) and no eggs ( we use tofu instead) so can be cooked for vegans as well!
Lentil Stew
September 22nd, 2010 I have always struggled how to cook lentils, and what to do with them. Here is a stew to try, and it’s really quite easy.
