Inspiring friendly recipes and thoughts
Spring Vegetable Tartlets
Tarts or quiches are such a useful summer dish – perfect for a light lunch, a centre piece to be served with an array of salads or on a picnic.
Chocolate and Raspberry Mille Feuille
July 14th deserves a pretty French patisserie recipe, made friendly of course! Mille feuille (don’t make me try and pronounce this, I seem to be genetically unable to make it sound as it shou…
Chocolate Chip Scone Cake
Summer has arrived – yippee, and coinciding with the school holidays and a break from work – what could be better! 30 degree heat isn’t the kind of weather to be baking cupcakes &…
Linguine with beetballs
I’ve been seeing vegetarian meatballs on Pinterest and the web for quite some time, and have become rather intrigued by the concept.

Roasted Vegetables with Chimichurri

(Fish-free) Tapenade
Our holiday in the South of France certainly got the taste buds tingling with sunny Mediterranean flavours; think tomatoes, gorgeous ripe fruit, flowers, wild herbs and fat olives.
