This no mayo potato salad is the one I make when I want something lighter than the classic creamy versions. Warm Jersey Royals (or any waxy new potatoes) get tossed in a simple lime, mint and butter dressing that soaks ...

Healthier Oven Baked Vegetable Samosas
Well, that was an unexpected break from baking! After a week laid low with a chest infection (And I've got quite some chest to get infected ;-) )I'm back. Much as I tried to get into the kitchen last week, I simply couldn't stay awake long ...
Storecupboard BBQ CousCous
We are so typically British in this house. First sniff of a sunny afternoon and we utter the words, "Shall we have a BBQ for tea?". I've got a bit of a confession though. I'm not that much of a meat eater. I'll enjoy a burger or kebab but ...
Roasted Red Pepper Hummus
I've been wanting to blog this recipe for ages. We eat hummus ALL OF THE TIME in this family, especially Roasted Red Pepper. I've recently started giving Millie a portion with breadsticks as soon as she comes out of the pool which she ...

Leftover Broccoli, Chestnut & Mushroom Bake
I defy you to find a simpler, easier, more tasty vegetarian dish than this. Admittedly, this dish came together by chance due to my inability to judge portion sizes. We are all broccoli lovers in this house so when I cook it, I make sure ...
Butternut Squash, Red Pepper & Mint Soup
Well, we were all fooled but the mild weather last week, weren't we? Hands up who else started talking about spring being on its way. Seems not, Storm Doris is hitting us today with a vengeance so out comes the soup maker. As with all my ...
Mushroom & Walnut Palmiers
How versatile these lovely little pastries are - I make both sweet and savoury regularly but decided on savoury for this challenge with my Mushroom & Walnut Palmiers. Nuts and mushrooms are such a great combination and the crunch of the ...
Roasted Butternut Squash Crostini
I'm a fairly new convert to Butternut Squash - We certainly didn't eat it when I was growing up. I don't even remember seeing it in the supermarket. As I've said before, I'm a huge fan of Sweet Potato (which in my mind should have tasted ...
