These flatbread frying pan pizzas have been a godsend in lockdown and enjoyed time and time again. They are so good! I really had no idea how they would turn out but to my surprise, they turned out more than fine. I thought they were a triumph. Steve even said they were “better than PizzaRead more
Easter is likely to be a strange one this year. Normally a day when families come together to celebrate, eat delicious food and head on out for a walk possibly culminating in a trip to the pub for a drinkie. With our Prime Minister Boris Johnson indicating the lockdown in the United Kingdom is likelyRead more
Last Tuesday, the 17th March, was St Patrick’s day. Blink and you probably missed it. I celebrated with family before we all got separated and stuck in our own homes in different towns and villages. I can’t tell you how glad I feel to have had the opportunity to spend time together because who knowsRead more
I know at these uncertain times a blogpost about eating out might not be of much interest to you but you know what? It’s worth a read anyway. We all need to keep our chins up and plan fun stuff for when all of this virus stuff is over and we can finally get outRead more

I have always loved pink and green as a colour combination when it comes to food. Matcha cake with raspberry pink icing, beetroot pasta with a sprinkling of fresh parsley, the pink pickled turnip you get at Lebanese restaurants served alongside herby tabbouleh and now I can add beetroot cream cheese and wilted leafy greensRead more
I’m not vegan but more often than not the meals I make at home happen to fall into that category. Last night was a good case in point. I roasted sweet potato and piled it high on top of warm garlicky cannellini beans and finished the dish off with crispy sage. A simple, comforting, deliciousRead more
As a child, I really don’t remember having peanut butter. Maybe my mum wasn’t a fan so didn’t buy it? Our house was all about Marmite for that savoury hit and to be honest, my love of Marmite hasn’t wained. I’m still slathering it on my toast good and thick. I’m not a tiny scrapingRead more
