Creamy Mushroom Mac N Cheese
Price per serving – £0.84 I’m a traditionalist when it comes to cheese sauce. From an early age I was taught how to make a roux and then form a sauce.

Deconstructed brunch wrap served with homemade salsa
I started the day off by de-christmasing the house. It is a bit sad really the living room looks so bare now but its good to get back to reality I guess. For the last week and a half I have been living in that strange period of time where you don’t know what dayContinue reading “Deconstructed brunch wrap served with homemade salsa”

Cheese & Chilli on Toast
Breakfast. Simple cheese and chilli on sourdough toast. Normally I wouldn’t have sourdough in, this recipe doesn’t require any speciality bread. You could do it on a bagel, on a slice of wholemeal or white bread, on a crumpet if you wanted to. Its about using what you have in. We only have the sourdoughContinue reading “Cheese & Chilli on Toast”
Mexican Inspired Arancini
I hate food waste. When we make big meals we batch cook to freeze half or eat it for lunches during the week. Yesterday I attempted to make a Fakeaway KFC Rice Box because I really had a hankering for one but it wasn’t in the budget to go to KFC. I ended up makingContinue reading “Mexican Inspired Arancini”
Vegetarian Chilli & Jacket Potatos
I don’t eat mince meat, not for any belief or reason other than I despise the way beef mince smells when cooking, its always bothered me. When I met my now husband nearly 10 years ago he was horrified, absolutely horrified that i made all mince dishes with Quorn or Soya Mince. Truthfully if iContinue reading “Vegetarian Chilli & Jacket Potatos”
