Home-made Egg-free Pasta
I always wanted to make some home-made pasta – I even gave D a pasta machine a few years ago as a birthday present, but somehow it never saw the light of day until today.
Chocolate Mint Cupcakes
So, it’s the Year 3 cake sale day at school today and even if I wasn’t very keen on baking, it would be important to provide some cupcakes that my girls can safely buy and eat.
Chocolate Coated Coconut Oaty bars
You may have noticed that I’m quite a fan of chocolate and coconut! The biscuit tin was looking empty and Little S had a friend coming to play on Friday, so this is a concocted recipe that ke…
Mini Doughnuts
Did you know that it’s National Doughnut Week in the UK? Neither did I until the other day – I have to say it’s a rather tenuous reason for a National Week! Anyway, I thought I…
Pink Pickled Onions
This is a fabulous recipe – make a batch and keep in a covered container in the fridge and they can add a crunchy zing to many a dish.
Burger Buns
Here’s the recipe for the burger buns I used with the Butternut Squash and Mushroom Burgers.
Roasted Mushroom and Butternut Squash Burgers
It seems like it was a ‘Burger Tuesday’ in this house this week.

She’s home! Big S came home from her activity camp today and the family is again as it should be.
Black Pepper Tofu
I know tofu can be a challenging ingredient to many people, but I defy anyone not to be totally converted to its delights after eating this fabulous dish.
Golden Crown Biscuits
I was feeling a bit lost yesterday with Big S on her three night activity camp with school.
P… P… P… Pick Up a Dairy-free Penguin Bar
In writing this blog I wanted to challenge myself to be able to create any foodstuff (within reason!) that I like (or liked as a child), or my girls would like to try, and make it dairy/egg/nut-fre…
Brown Sugar Blondies
So I have a half pack of silken tofu left over from the chocolate cheesecake recipe – what to do with it? I could have made brownies with silken tofu, but I’m all out of ‘safeR…
Zingy Lemon Butter(less)cream
The perfect topping for St Clement’s cupcakes, or possibly gingerbread – hmm, going to have to try that combo! Zingy Lemon Buttercream (dairy-free, egg-free, nut-free, soya-free, sesame…
St Clement’s Cupcakes
‘Oranges and lemons say the bells of St Clement’s’ Here are the zingy, zesty cupcakes I made so Big S could have one to take to the party last weekend.
Chocolate Mint Thins
We seem to have become reliant on ending a meal with a mint chocolate! Unfortunately, our usual Mint Chocolate Crisps from Sainsbury’s Free From range haven’t been available for a while…
Old Town Oaties
This is my long-time fall back chunky chocolate chip cookie, enriched with oats and soft brown sugar.
