No not that sort of magic mushroom but these are quite tasty & very easy to make. You know me, I like great flavoursome food that is quick and easy to make. No need to give yourself 100 steps in a recipe to follow when you only need 45! Not that this has 45 steps…

Honey & Chilli Glaze
Just a quick one for now…. I ❤️ honey. I really do and I’m so fortunate that I can get good local honey from where my work office is in Upshire. Local bees collecting pollen from local flowers and the resulting honey travelling just 5 miles before consumption in my home. Now, tonight is Pork…
Cabbage
Sometimes we overlook a basic ingredient. We try to jazz it up too much, add herbs, spices, braise it in wine, just mess around with it so much it looses its real quality. For me cabbage is one of those vegetables that I feel we often loose our way with. Too often cabbage brings back…
Sausages….. Square Ones!
As some of you know I am a real foodie. I love food. Nearly all food, sadly I can no longer eat shell fish but everything else can be chopped, cooked, made with love and I’ll eat it! With that in mind and a total lack of self control I find myself back on the…
Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Yep I know I’m not really giving a recipe here but this afternoon I had the urge to make an American style grilled cheese sandwich for our foster daughter. Normally I pull out the toastie maker, load in too much cheese, wait 20 minutes for it to heat up then have to spend 30 minutes…
Easy Chicken Soup
I love a good soup! Be it a decent tinned soup that we turn to for comfort or a posh carton soup for decadence, soup is a real go to comfort food. Before my SlimmingWorld journey I would often just reach for a tin of tomato soup and consume it with a huge cheese toastie….
Cooking with the Senses
Or in other words how to inspire your friend by teaching her a basic white sauce. As you know from my previous post Know Your Onions and Garlic I was teaching my friend Colette the fine art of listening to your food. It got me thinking that every time I cook, I rarely follow a…
Slow cooker Pork
I love my slow cooker but we have had our fair share of disasters together. Mainly dried out chicken or meat that’s so soggy you could wrong it out! But it’s never stopped me trying. This is a deliciously spicy dish that’s slimming world friendly. If you are not following slimming world it’s less fiddly…
Your People
A.K.A South African Comfort food! What I find really interesting in life, is sometimes people you meet you connect with on a simple level, they become “people you know” and then sometimes you meet people who become “Your People”. You know what I mean. “Your people” are the people you connect with, you click with,…
A Sprout is not just for Christmas
Christmas Time – Sprouts. Yes it’s the best time of the year to eat sprouts, they are in season, they are small nutty bundles of sweet green vegetable! A lot of people don’t like them, proboably because they are associated with small mushy bundles!! Try them this way and you may just like them, or…
