Hey, I hope you're having a lovely weekend! This morning my husband and I made a plan to surprise his parents with lunch, and I decided to rustle up this tasty tart. I also made some lovely individual lemon cheesecakes for dessert and I'll post them tomorrow. My mother-in-law recently had an ileostomy and has … Continue reading Deli Tart
Hi there, These scones are great for little kids, babies, and adults alike. I like to eat them warm with a little butter, which is exactly how my little man had them for lunch today. It was my little man's first taste of rosemary, and he seemed to enjoy it. I cut them into fingers … Continue reading Cheddar & Rosemary Scones
Here is another of my 'Baby Bowls' that are super fast and easy. I made these for my little mans lunch today. We went into Central London to get some lunch at the food stalls at the Southbank - I had an amazing chicken and halloumi souvlaki wrap - and as it was super busy … Continue reading Baby Bowl – Buckwheat Noodles, Spinach & Tomato Sauce
Hi there, I seem to be creating lots of yummy from food that is going out of date at the moment. In fact, my food choices have been almost entirely led by whatever seems to be going out of date. This one is no exception. I had several peppers starting to look a little sorry for … Continue reading Pork Mince Stir Fry
Hey, This traybake is great for grown ups and kids alike. There is 75g Maple syrup in there, but I am happy to give this to my boy as there is so little per slice. You could leave out the maple syrup altogether if you want a zero sugar traybake. I also added some icing … Continue reading Mango & Blueberry Traybake
Good Evening, Today I'm making more finger food for my baby as I want to keep his foods as varied as possible. This is also a great recipe for any courgettes you have lying in your fridge looking a little sorry for themselves. Don't throw them out! Just make these instead. These are great for … Continue reading Courgette Fritters
Hi there, This halloumi and vegetable couscous is a surprisingly filling meal considering there's no meat in the dish! This dish is best served immediately so you get the gooey softness of the halloumi and the warmth of couscous, however it is just as good served cold. I'm off for a picnic tomorrow and I … Continue reading Harissa Halloumi & Vegetable Couscous
Hi there, I'm sorry I didn't manage to get a blog up yesterday - my laptop is giving up the ghost very slowly and I need to buy a new one. I was sat here for a very frustrating 2 hours with a major buffer face on, and in the end I had to admit … Continue reading Basil Pesto
Good evening everyone. I hope you had an amazing Wednesday. Today we met up with a friend and her daughter, and went for a walk in Richmond Park. They have the most beautiful deer there, and it's such a gorgeous place to just walk and breathe. We had a mini picnic under a beautiful old … Continue reading Mushrooms, Broccoli & Spicy Courgette Noodles
Evening everyone, Every Monday I run a meet up for mums in the local area where we get together, chat and drink coffee. I've been going since my little man was 5 weeks old, and I took over running it from another Mum when her little one became bigger and it was difficult for her … Continue reading Quinoa, Feta, Orange & Pomegranate Salad with Tahini Dressing
Good Morning everyone! I hope you are all well on this beautiful Sunday morning. I had another good nights' sleep thanks to my little man (until 5am), and I currently have the smell of fresh coffee and smoked bacon in the air. Life feels pretty good right now! Today we're heading out on a hike … Continue reading Sweetcorn Fritters
Hi there, I hope you are having a beautiful day! It once again looks glorious out there today, so I'm heading out for a nice long walk with my little one, before taking him to see his Grandparents this afternoon. It's beautiful watching his little face light up when he sees them! Today's recipe is … Continue reading Roasted Sweet Potato & Chickpea Salad with Chorizo
With the beautiful warm weather continuing for at least a few weeks longer in the UK, I am finding myself eating more and more salads. I remember being a child and hating the thought of having a salad as it usually meant an iceberg lettuce leaf, a slice of cucumber, and a salad tomato slice, … Continue reading Pear & Goats Cheese Salad
I needed a fast lunch today, and it had to be one where I wasn't prepping a different meal for my baby. I always have halloumi in the fridge. I LOVE it! I honestly think there are very few things that come close to eating fried halloumi on a salad. I love the crispy outside … Continue reading Halloumi, Mushroom and Spinach Bowl
