Beef Tagliata Salad

It feels a bit off to be posting a recipe for steak salad on a week where we are all being encouraged to cut our meat consumption. Personally I eat red meat at most once a week and have several meat free days each week. My real meat weakness is bacon, I have to stop […]

Chicken, Peach and Mozzarella Salad

  Now I know what you’re thinking, “Another Chicken Salad recipe?” I wasn’t joking when I said I like to make a quick chicken salad during the week. After making my Grilled Peach Cherry and Goats Cheese Salad, I decided to adapt it to make this Chicken Peach and Mozzarella Salad.

Balsamic Chicken Salad

It’s a bit of a funny week here and in a way I’ll be glad when it’s all over. On the plus side, it would appear that Summer has actually arrived! Cue sunburnt skin and the smell of burning barbecues everywhere. At this time of year I tend to cook speedy, lighter meals and this Balsamic Chicken […]

French Onion Soup

I know what you’re thinking, a second soup recipe in as many months. I don’t care. It’s been so cold the last few weeks that soup is a necessity. Also, there seems to be recipes for French Onion Soup popping up all over the place recently so I though it was high time I posted […]

Deep Fried Brie with Raspberry Sauce

I know Brie parcels and fried Camembert have been done to death and are considered to be ‘old school’ but sometimes there’s nothing more comforting than cutting into a crispy parcel to find the soft cheese oozing out. Honestly, I actually restrain myself when it comes to cheese posts, I could put one up every […]

Bangers and Mash with Onion Gravy

I was saving this recipe until later in the year to post but there’s a right bang of Autumn in the air these evenings. There will be plenty of curries, soups and stews in my near future. And apple and blackberry desserts. I’m starting to turn to comfort food already and this Bangers and Mash with […]

Caramelised Onion Tarte Tatin

Today I’m back to work after two weeks off. I’m not as blue about it as you might think, I feel like I’ve had a proper break. I also gave myself a break from the blog and social media in general, just dipping in and out the odd time. I’d highly recommend it. You might […]

Strawberry Goats’ Cheese and Pancetta Salad

I know what you’re thinking, more strawberries! I just can’t resist them, there is always a punnet of them in my fridge when they are at their peak. The thing is, I have no problem using them in breakfasts or sweet desserts but struggled for a long time with using them in savoury food.
