I love noodle broths but I don’t make them that often as I find them a bit messy to eat. I usually end up wearing half the broth down the front of my top (more often than not on a day that I’ve decided to wear one of my few white tops!). Continue reading
I’m a little late to the Deliciously Ella party. I’ve tried to like her recipes but I found it tricky to find something that I really wanted to make. So, when I came across this rather tasty recipe for courgetti noodles with mushrooms and a mint and avocado sauce I decided to give it a go. Continue reading
The husband and I are a but partial to a cooked veggie breakfast. In fact we’d eat a cooked breakfast for breakfast, lunch and dinner, given the chance. So, when I came across this recipe for sweet potato hash and spicy beans I couldn’t resist. Continue reading
What’s not to like about a meal that involves delicious ingredients and minimal washing up? Well, Anna Jones’ sweet courgettes with crispy chickpeas delivers on both counts. Continue reading

Scouring the internet I discovered this chopped Greek salad recipe from Pinch of Yum, and I’d definitely recommend it as a go to salad mix. Continue reading

I accidentally bought some cavolo nero recently. When I say accidentally, I don’t mean I didn’t realise that I’d put some in my shopping basket. What actually happened was, I forgot my shopping list – again – and thought I needed cavolo nero. I didn’t and so the beautiful curly leaves were left languishing in the fridge until I decided to do something with it. Continue reading
This Mexican-style roasted veg ragu from Jamie Oliver is delicious. It’s a try-bake, so once you’ve done all your chopping and prep work and got it started in the over, it pretty much looks after itself, with an occasional stir to help it on its way. Continue reading
This delicious modern moussaka (loving known as moose-ka-ka in our house) was one of the first recipes I cooked from Anna Jones’ a modern way to cook. I’m quite partial to moussaka as it’s packed with some of my all time favourite ingredients: tomatoes, aubergines and potatoes. Continue reading
