Hey guys!

Happy new year! It’s a great time to establish new cooking routines and I particularly love getting back into the kitchen after all the distraction of Christmas out of the way.

If you’re looking to reclaim your kitchen after all the festive fare, I have plenty of lighter meals lined up for you this January as well as some more inexpensive ones that won’t break the bank. Check out the blog and recipe section for more.

Happy Cooking!

Superseed Roast Sweet Potato

March 01

A pack of sweet potatoes can be easily transformed to dinner and if your a fan of the humble baked potato, maybe this recipe is for you. When roasted, sweet potatoes turn deeply caramelised and produce tender vibrant orange flesh. The topping choices are endless but I’ve provided you with one with a nod to health conscious eating.

Tofu & Broccoli Stir Fry

March 01

With an umami packed sauce the tofu makes a meal of a simple vegetable stir fry which can be a great way of using up any sorry looking vegetables in the fridge. A simple method with an ingredient that deserves a little more love.

Classic Chicken Caesar Salad

Often the test of a good cook, the humble caesar salad, done well, remains one my favourite things to make in the summer months. If I’m going to put in the effort, the dressing must be the classic and include anchovies for their salty bite, from there it is open to interpretation. Purists may balk at the idea of soft boiled eggs and charred chicken but for me they make it a generous summer meal and are essential.

Raspberry & White Chocolate Ricotta Pound Cake

A no fuss basic baking recipe to easily master which can be adapted with any fruit you might like to substitute. I particularly like the combination of raspberries and white chocolate here though, a combination I often add to muffins for sweet summery vibes.
