Warming foods! This week has been all about soups, slow cooker meals and hot comforting food! I am still loving my vegetable box delivery and this week, when I saw loads of red peppers and several aubergines, I knew I had to make a new dolma recipe. I decided to have a little experiment (when do I not) and see…
Kurdish Kifta! I know people say us Brits always talk about the weather, but you know it’s been sudden torrential rain daily for a couple of weeks now… in my area!

A fabulous Burns Night feast you’ll love #BurnsNight #recipes
