Healthy, low-cost dishes to make you smile
Although these muffins have breakfast in the title that doesn’t mean you won’t want to eat them all day! These Sugar Free Breakfast Muffins are a perfect snack at any time and brilliant for lunchboxes. Or in my kids case their second (or third) […]
I know some people are crazy about cauliflowers but they have never been top of my fave veggies. Often they are cooked in a way which is so bland so I have resolved to find more exciting ways to make the white vegetable more exciting. […]
I’m always looking for new beetroot recipes for my family because we love it and I want to grow some next year too. The beauty of Beetroot and Chickpea Fritters is they are so versatile. They are fab in a wrap instead of falafel, they can be put in a bun as a mini burger and are perfect for a meze style spread too as delicious with salads – or even soups. They are so easy to make and freeze brilliantly so you can always have some at the ready.
Don’t be put off by the lack of ingredients – they still taste amazing.

I recently became obsessed with the concept of the Sloppy Joe. Mainly because I have never had one and probably never will. It’s on the list of things I’ve never tasted like a kebab, Big Mac, dubious southern style chicken from a faux KFC… Generally this doesn’t bother me in the slightest but I do wonder about what the various sauces as I very much believe the condiment is king.

As I seem to have very much over purchased on the green lentil front so this is a great make-in-bulk dish for the freezer and is also delicious on a baked sweet potato. Or as a base for a Vegan Shepherds Pie. It’s just all-round great.
A messy eat, but certainly worth it!
There is nothing quite like a beautifully ripe fig. They have such a unique flavour which really sums up the mellow end of summer and beginning of autumn. I feel the flavour is enhanced and deepened when they are grilled or lightly cooked so their […]
Breakfast is a busy time for everyone but if you are prepared you can have a delicious meal, which will really set you up for the day, which is both cheap and healthy. Granola is a staple in many households but I tend to […]
