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.
Cucumber and Poppy Seed Salad
Here’s my first recipe inspired by a recipe in my lovely new Ottolenghi cookbook.
Toffee and Raisin Cookies
I think I’ve been making too many chocolate biscuits recently – although they’re the family favourite – so today I made some Toffee and Raisin Cookies, just for a change.

Banana Sundae Cupcakes
We were out of sweet treats so it was the perfect excuse for baking some delectable cupcakes for Big and Little S to have at tea time.
Dairy, egg, sesame and nut free products

Dough Balls
One of the highlights of eating at Pizza Express seems to be the dough balls (and you can buy them at huge expense in supermarkets) – they are warm, light and very moreish! However, if you th…
