Mushroom and Onion Puff Pastry Slice
This is a really simple, delicious vegetarian dish that delivers on flavour. The mushrooms, onions and Marsala wine pack a real hearty punch and I guarantee both vegetarians and non-vegetarians will enjoy it. Serve with some steamed spuds or mash and briefly blanched kale. If you want something a bit quicker, I highly recommend the […]
Shakshuka
This is my take on a warming North African Dish my family love as breakfast or brunch on a lazy Sunday. I have three girls under 6 and they all loved it. The high protein content of the eggs and metabolism boosting potential of the chilli really kick starts the day. The vitamin C from […]
Pappardelle with Mushrooms, Basil & Chilli
This quick vegetarian dish is so tasty and uses creme fraiche instead cream so it is that bit lower in fat and so better for you and your family. It is important that you saute the mushrooms enough to release the flavours which will make the dish extremely tasty. You can also add finely diced […]
Cauliflower Cheese Soup
Cauliflower cheese is one of my favourite side dishes and one I make every time I make a roast dinner. One day I was thinking about soup recipes and came up with this. I am glad I did as it is so tasty and of course, like all my recipes, it is very easy and […]
Roasted Vegetables & Giant Couscous Salad

You’ll find it in some supermarkets and health food stores, if you can’t find it use regular couscous instead which can be found in any supermarket. Follow the instructions on the packet then follow the recipe from […]
Honey Roasted Carrots & Parsnip
These are perfect with a roast of any description, especially a Sunday roast. They can be prepared the night before then finished in the oven when your roast is almost done.
Cauliflower Cheese
I love this dish and believe it or not I actually prefer it with frozen cauliflower. Use fresh or frozen and I bet you love it either way. I experiment with different cheese from time to time. A strong Brie is great, blue cheese not good at all and smoked cheese is fantastic in it. […]
Yummy Veggie Soup (Gluten Free)
You can make this soup in a few minutes, it also freezes great so make it in bulk and freeze in portions for when needed in a school lunch. It contains no gluten, salt, butter or oil so is basically puree veggies with a little cream added to help bind it all together. I list […]
Smoked Bacon & Mushroom Soup (gf)
You can make this in minutes and cook it in a pot or your slow cooker. I include methods for each below. I also included 2 ways to cook the smoked rashers, one gives more flavour but is more time consuming and costs more to make due to the use of your oven. It is […]
Onion Bhajis (gluten free)
These are so expensive from Indian restaurants and takeaways. I never understood why cause in fairness it’s an onion in a few spices and some gram flour and cost so little to make. You will easily make them at home yourself for less than €1. They are really quick to make too which is great. […]
