Healthy Family Cooking
These are great muffins for the whole family! They're super tasty and full of flavour. My boy's favourite food is broccoli (long may it last!), and I'm trying to mix it up a little for him. We really love these too, and they're great for packed lunch. These can be frozen by dividing them with … Continue reading Broccoli & Cheddar Muffins
When we came back from our long weekend away on Monday night I had to think on my feet in terms of getting the dinner ready fast. I have a stash of food in the freezer for my little boy, and he had some lamb tagine with rice, and I decided to make this calamari … Continue reading Calamari Salad
Evening! I decided to make these for my little man as they're great for on the go snacks and much healthier than the frozen versions! I was going to make these with salmon fillets, but ended up picking up Basa as I've not used it before. Basa fillets are quite mild in taste, so they … Continue reading Baby’s Fish Fingers
Good morning, Last night I made roasted cauliflower, and this time I think I cracked it with the herbs and spices! Each time I do it I try something a little different, but today it was so gorgeous I had to share it with you. I was a bit late to the party when it … Continue reading Whole Roasted Cauliflower
Hi there, I'm off to a picnic tomorrow with the nursery my son has just started attending, so I've been cooking up batches of finger food to take along that I know most kids will love. I've recently been trying to perfect sugar free muffin recipes that still have a nice sweetness to them, that … Continue reading Sugar Free Blueberry& Lemon Muffins
Hi There, Tonight I decided to make my little man some of his favourite sweet potato 'fries'. Of course, these are not fried, but baked, and they are delicious. I make a mixture of ones with skin on and off, as he tends to eat them in 2 ways: 1. He bites down onto the … Continue reading My Little Man’s Favourite Sweet Potato ‘Fries’
Hi, My baby absolutely loves sweet potato. This recipe is super simple, especially as I cooked it in the microwave, although I've got to say that I do prefer a baked potato in the oven. However today was not one of those days that I had time to bake in the oven, and I wanted … Continue reading Baby’s Stuffed Sweet Potatoes
Hi there, As it is the start of the week I was thinking about baking a loaf of bread to get us through the week, but I am very impatient when it comes to bread, and didn't want to spend ages waiting for it to rise, and trying to come back to it later. I … Continue reading Cheesy Herby Loaf
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 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
Tonight I was looking around the kitchen to see what is going out of date, as I try to reduce food waste wherever possible, and my poor celeriac caught my eye. It really isn't the prettiest of vegetables, but it was going to be the star of the show tonight! Celeriac is great, but I … Continue reading Celeriac Remoulade
