Sadly the darker evenings have already kicked in and as such my photography is suffering. Again. But I love this recipe so much I had to share it anyway.

Pea and Broccoli Soup
Nigella has a recipe in Simply Nigella for a nice Pea and Broccoli Soup. It looks very fresh and very healthy. This recipe is not quite as healthy. It’s not bad for you or anything, I’ve just used stock and a little dairy. And then I stuck cheesy croutons on top.
Crab and Avocado Toasts
These Crab and Avocado Toasts are a real treat. You can call them crostinis if you really want to impress! They are so easy to make especially when you buy cooked crab meat like I do. Someday I’ll tackle cooking crab but not just yet.
Creamy Potato Salad with Chorizo
I’ve been meaning to share this recipe for Creamy Potato Salad with Chorizo for some time now. I thought with the Bank Holiday approaching, you might be looking for ideas for food to make for a barbecue and this is the perfect side.
Broccoli and Feta Salad
There is a famous recipe for Broccoli and Feta Salad in the Avoca Cafe Cookbook by Hugo Arnold. I have made it several times and it is really good, but as per usual I cannot leave well enough alone and have to add other bits and bobs to it.
Parmentier Potatoes
Contrary to what you might think from reading this blog, I don’t cook potatoes all that often. Maybe once a fortnight. That’s very little for an Irish household!
Asparagus Fennel and Orange Salad
I recently saw a post for a shaved asparagus recipe and I thought it looked so elegant I’d have to give it a go. My efforts don’t look quite as elegant!
‘Southern Fried’ Chicken Goujons
These Southern Fried Chicken Goujons are a big hit in my home. I like them as I find chicken quite boring and like to have the crunch of the coating with plenty of mild spices to boost flavour.
