#GBBO Party Week If you are watching the Great British Bake Off (#GBBO) you will know that this week was party food week. There is so much choice for party foods, but pastries always seem to make an appearance! Now, I am a bit fussy when it comes to pastry, and much prefer the filling, even if it’s a crispy,…
Cheese Straws Are you young enough to have grown up with cheese straws? Or were you more of the breadstick era? My late Mum always used to make cheese straws. I recall helping her roll out the dough then cutting sticks and circles, and circles within circles to create rings. The aroma that filled the kitchen when cooking was so…
Festive Feast Ideas! (Free-From too)!!! This week I had absolutely no idea what to post! I’ve been eating of course but mostly pumpkin (again) and chickpeas (as usual)! ๐ So I decided to do a round up of recipes instead to help you get some ideas for the festive season! ๐ This was great fun to look through all my…

Just looking at me saying “eat me” and “pick me”! ๐ (sorry!) So…
Pie week… DEGF Caramelised onion, potato and bean pies (Yes, they really are Dairy, Egg & Gluten free!) I had seriously forgotten how much I liked loved pies! The light but crisp crunch of the pastry breaking away to reveal a delicious mouthful of pure complimentary tastes. The meatiness of all that food in one bite (without the meat!) but…
Luscious Lentil Pakoras. Dairy. Egg. Gluten. Free. Today I had no idea what recipe I was going to post! Sometimes I might have a day in the kitchen and end up producing three different wonderful recipes, whereas on other days I’m too tired to be Mrs Inventor! ๐ I usually have a rough idea what I will post the following…
