Pumpkin! Another busy week for me but finally I am getting somewhere! I’m so organised this week, I managed to create not one but two new pumpkin recipes for you! Both recipes can be created with any type of pumpkin or squash. Choose your favourite colour – yellow, red, green, orange, white or something in between! I used a green…
Classic Street Snack. The last few weeks in the UK have been hot and sunny, reminding me not only of my younger days (yes, we used to have weather like that then) but also of the time I lived in Turkey. Whilst I did live there in all seasons, the summer seemed to stretch on for months, and you could…
Blondie Fruit Slice! This week we’re back to something sweet and delicious! I wanted to create something initially to use up a jar of mincemeat I found when tidying the fridge. I thought about making my usual date slice but decided that would be too sweet, so I had a think and came up with this! Instead of a crumble…
Beans! This week we’re going to add to our ‘back to basics’ series with the most straightforward and satisfying baked beans recipe ever! Sometimes, the simplest dishes are the most comforting, and these baked beans are no exception. Whether you’re looking for a quick side dish or a hearty addition to your breakfast, this recipe is sure to become a…

Millionaire’s Shortbread Bites! Last week I shared with you a new brownie recipe, and as I found some vegan condensed milk, this week I thought I’d add a new millionaire’s recipe. If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you might know that I posted a very popular raw chocolate caramel slice recipe about 6 years ago. This recipe…
Biscuit (aka cookie) Brownies! This week’s recipe is a delightful twist on my ever-popular decadent biscoff brownie recipe. If you love brownies and biscuits (aka cookies), you’re in for a treat! These easy-to-make chocolate brownies incorporate biscuits, adding a deliciously crunchy texture to the rich, fudginess of a good brownie. I used mini Oreos and chocolate Jammie Dodgers but you…
Salad! What do you think of when you hear the word ‘salad?’ Does it remind you of the single lettuce leaf with a wedge of soggy tomato and half a slice of cucumber served on the side of a meal? Do you think of salad as something only people trying to lose weight would eat? Well, let me tell you…
Soup! I know it is supposed to be sunny and warm and summery, but when the rain comes, soup can be the perfect easy meal. This soup is my go to when I’m in need of a boost! For headaches, for fatigue, for wanting to feel healthy after eating too much cake, this soup really is for the soul! This…
