Don’t let the long list of ingredients scare you off – most of those are spice related which gives the complex smokey flavour that is Jambalaya. Despite all the ingredients, making this meal is simpler than making a risotto.

I am a mummy with two young kids, and a passion for cooking, good food, fresh produce plus bargain food buys. I hunt out the best seasonal produce at cheap prices to cook up the very best for my family. This blog will hopefully provide you with fresh food inspiration, recipes and other helpful food tips that don't cost the earth. All photos and recipes are my own unless otherwise stated.
Apple Cinnamon Chips
Use leftover apples to make this simple snack or as a lunchbox filler. This is a great homemade alternative to salty potato chips. Serving size is one cookie tray, or one apple.
Basic Chia Pudding
One of the easiest to make yet healthiest breakfasts you’ll ever have. Not to mention it’s so versatile and only limited by your own imagination. Once you know the basic formula to make chia pudding you can get creative and try different combinations.
Smashed Avocado with Poached Egg
A healthy breakfast that’s a little bit fancy. Perfect for a Sunday brunch or if you just want to pick yourself up with a good start to the day. The egg is the only element that requires cooking – the rest is just puting it all together.
Warm Winter Salad
Made with beetroot, pumpkin and baby spinach, this recipe is simple yet packed with flavour. By roasting both the beetroot and pumpkin you’re adding a richer flavour into the salad. Just because the weather gets colder doesn’t mean you still can’t enjoy a salad.
Moroccan Apricot Chicken
An easy family meal. I changed my plans on what to make for dinner on Saturday night and decided to make Moroccan Apricot Chicken instead. I think my niece staying with us had something to do with it as she’s coeliac so can’t consume even the tiniest amount of gluten without it making her sick….
Gluten-Free Chocolate Brownies
Just because you’re gluten free doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy wonderful tasty treats. This brownie is moist, chewey and gooey. Just perfect. Made with almond meal which gives a wonderful moist texture, better than if you use gluten free flour.
Sauteed Kale
Most people wouldn’t think about cooking kale but this recipe is a winner – it tastes great, is super simple to prepare and is a great alternative to your normal side vegetables.
