The banana bread is easy to make and remember, you pretty much needs 120g of each ingredients and some bananas. It also works well as a packed lunch addition.. you can cut up and freeze the slices so they’re ready each morning.

Bananas, oats and sultanas all crammed into one loaf, it’s so full of ingredients, you can almost convince yourself that it’s good for you. It’s perfect for a busy family life. The banana bread is soft, but firm enough, so that it doesn’t fall apart. An added bonus is that my kids love it and […]
I love Monday leftover lunches and baked bean and potato pie is hard to beat. Homemade baked beans with mashed up baked potatoes.
Honey and mustard chicken, roasted new potatoes with rosemary and sea salt, green salad and yogurt dressing. This is a simple midweek meal that ticks all the boxes. About 12 years ago (before kids) this was one of my go-to midweek summer dishes. We were living in London and particularly after a long day and […]

Garlic Roast Chicken
I didn’t want to make your usual roast, but also with such a good bird I didn’t want to go crazy with flavours. In the end I went for some old favourites – garlic, fresh herbs and citrus.
This slow cooked soup is just what you need on a cold winters day. Spicy chorizo, melt in the mouth chicken surrounded with strands of peppers and onion. The sauce has the zing of paprika, tomatoes and the sweetness from orange juice and cinnamon. All those great warming flavours topped with creamy feta and spring […]
