Creamy Cajun Chicken Tagliatelle

This one is a favourite in our household, it’s creamy, spicy and full of flavour, what’s not to love? I usually use shop bought Cajun seasoning which works just as well but today I made my own. This recipe could easily be made into a veggie dish by just swapping out the chicken for quorn

Chilli & Prawn Spaghetti

Sometimes it’s the simple meals that are the best! I made this for two reasons, 1. I really fancied a tomato based spaghetti 2. I needed a meal that we could make using what we had left in the kitchen. The great thing about this recipe is that although I’ve added timings for how long

Homemade granola

I’ve been on a bit of a health kick recently and been experimenting with some things I don’t usually buy! I made this gorgeous granola full of really healthy stuff! Really simple to make, I had mine with coconut milk and blueberries! MOOD: when you need a healthy but tasty breakfast option INGREDIENTS 250g rolled

Smoked Salmon Tagliatelle with a Herb Sauce

I’ve been trying out a lot of new recipes recently, but I’m particularly proud of this one! I love all pasta but tagliatelle is a favourite (for both of us). Using mascarpone just makes it that little bit richer, the herbs and lemon gives it a lovely freshness. This one is perfect for a quick

Bulgar Wheat Salad with Chicken & Feta

I love bulgar wheat, it’s a great alternative to rice, similar to cous cous but in my opinion bulgar wheat is much nicer! You cook it the same way as you do cous cous and then just add whatever you like to it. I like to have this for lunch, but you can also pair

Double Pepperoni Puff Pastry Pizza

Tongue twister or what! We love a puff pastry pizza because they’re just so simple to make and so tasty! They’re a perfect fakeaway option with minimal effort. MOOD: when you want tasty food for the half the effort! INGREDIENTS 1 pack ready roll puff pastry 2 tbsp chopped tomatoes 1 tbsp olive oil Handful

Courgetti with spinach Pesto and Mushrooms

This recipe was inspired by a pasta salad I had recently from Aldi, it included spinach in the pesto recipe so I thought I’d give it a go and make my own. The idea was to have it for lunch and I wanted to make it a little lighter so I went for courgetti instead

Super easy pan fried Seabass with roasted tomatoes, asparagus and spicy potatoes

During the week we try to keep our main meals healthy-ish, we were doing really well before lockdown too! This is one dish that I make quite often because it’s a quick dish I can make once I’m home from work. I’ve found that the best tomatoes to use are the vine tomatoes rather than

Beef Wellington & Red Wine Sauce

I LOVE beef wellington! It’s probably one of my favourite things and is perfect for special occasions. I’ve always wanted to give it a go so I decided to use this isolation time to try! For this recipe I had to make a couple of phone calls to my Dad (the chef) to make sure

Caramelised red onion sausage rolls

Who doesn’t love sausage rolls! I love how simple this recipe is, the best way to eat them is when they’re fresh out of the oven. MOOD: fancy, binge worthy snack! INGREDIENTS Sausage meat (I find it’s best to get this from the butchers) 1 large red onion 2 tsp of sugar Splash of balsamic
