My goodness we have been really ill! We are still not at the end of it but I think, hopefully, the end is in sight! Just a really nasty cold/flu virus, sore throat, headaches, swollen glands, snot monsters! We are not surprised though, Antony has been working insanely hard during January and February so is … More Roast Garlic and Butter Bean Dip
Everybody knows I love porridge and would very happily have it every morning for breakfast. This morning I fancied something savoury rather than sweet so I experimented making a savoury porridge bowl, it turned out really well! There is no milk in this so it is vegan. I do realise that people will either “love … More Savoury Porridge Bowl
This is going to be a quick post!! I’m sitting here writing this post two minutes after having demolished this for my lunch! You learn to eat quickly when you have a small baby as you don’t know when you will have time to eat next. I videoed how I manage to take photos of … More Mushrooms and Humous on Toast
I love hummus. I got into making homemade hummus when I lived in Norway as you can not buy it ready made as easily as in the UK. I now make homemade hummus lots. This is one of my new favourite hummus recipes. I had a beetroot in the fridge desperately needing to be eaten. I … More Roasted Beetroot Hummus
Here is yet another salad bowl. Summer is just about deciding to finally appear in the Highlands. We’ve had brief glimpses of sunny weather with clouds but not warm enough to just wear a top and no jumper yet. I’m hoping that by the time it is my birthday I will be eating dinner outside … More Butter Bean, Courgette and Feta Salad
I love bread. I do like eating gluten free at times but I could never go completely gluten free as I love bread (and cakes!) so much. I make and experiment with a lot of gluten free recipes for my sister which are great as she is intolerant to gluten and it also makes her … More Mediterranean Flat Bread
I love big bowls of salad. This recipe had been planned to have included barbecued vegetables however our barbecue was a failure as the barbecue wasn’t started early enough (not wanting to blame the men of the household *cough cough*) and it was incredibly windy. Instead we oven roasted the vegetables which still worked brilliantly … More Roasted Vegetable and Quinoa Salad
I had an amazing Easter with my family this year, on Easter Sunday it was so warm and sunny that we even had Easter dinner outside! The meat eaters of the family had lamb but me and my sister had pea and mint falafel with a lemon mayonnaise dressing, cumin roasted potatoes and this tomato … More Tomato and Basil Salad
Just a quick post today sharing a really quick and easy lunch that I enjoy having. I always find that I just use tahini for making hummus so enjoy new uses for it such as this. I have also been experimenting with tahini dressings for salads (hopefully some new and exciting recipes to follow!). Avocado, … More Avocado, Tahini and Egg
This is one of my all time favourite soups. It goes particularly well with my cheese scones. It is a really simple soup to make and usually ends up being made when I have a couple of carrots and some celery in the fridge. I have recently been enjoying adding oils to soups. My version … More Tomato and Lentil Soup with Lemon and Rosemary Oil
