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.
Mediterranean Baked Snapper
Cooking whole fish doesn’t need to be daunting. This is an easy recipe with a tonne of flavour. I used snapper which is a popular fish. It is a pretty lean and moist with firm texture. If you can’t get snapper, ask your fishmonger to recommend a good substitute.
Cauliflower Pizza Base
A fabulous way to eat a normally carb heavy meal that is completely gluten free. A great alternative if you’re wanting a more guilt free pizza for dinner.
Chicken Moussaka
A twist on a hearty classic Greek dish that’s packed full of flavour and vegetables. Make your own white sauce recipe to use in this recipe.
Ratatouille
A hearty dish that is great at using up several vegetables in your fridge. Serve the ratatouille with brown rice and herb coated chicken or turkey for a delicious meal.
Choux Pastry
From all the pastries to make, it’s definitely one of the easiest. However, the wrong percentage of ingredients can result in flat and rather unappetising pastry cases when baked. Measuring out the ingredients is essential. Once mastered, you can use choux pastry to make profiteroles, cream puffs or eclairs.
Gourmet Sausage Rolls
Just about everyone likes sausage rolls. I mean, what’s not to like about them? You dip them in tomato sauce, they are like sausages but with pastry… decadent and delicious. Yes you can buy frozen ready made sausage rolls quite easily in supermarkets but have you truly looked at the ingredients?
Roasted Pumpkin Soup
I normally make a plain pumpkin soup but this time I decided to jazz it up by slow roasting the pumpkin, onion and garlic beforehand. Roasting the veggies gives them a different dimension and makes this classical soup a little more special.
