Guys. Guys. Oooooh guys. My website. She was down for almost 48 hours last week. I am really hoping you didn’t even notice but if you did, phew, I am SO sorry. I have been snowed under doing all these technical things like creating new databases and installing CDN Networks and changing nameservers and uploading…

The Best Chicken Recipe Ever
We are moving house in 2 weeks time and my house is full of half-packed boxes and crates loaded with books and everywhere I look I see to-do lists that seem never-ending. They follow me everywhere. It is quite exasperating, but this morning my colleague walked in with freshly baked carrot muffins and then she miraculously…
Fillet with Blue Cheese Sauce
Firstly, let me say this. Fillet with creamy blue cheese sauce. Just breathe a sigh of contentedness for a moment…. Fillet, with Blue cheese, with cream, with caramelised onion, with salt, with pepper. I feel like I could get dramatic about this and tell you to stop what you are doing right now and go…

Hello my lovelies. Let’s all grab a hula hoop and start wiggling our hips shall we? And how about an awesome Summer recipe or two – something like a Cajun Chicken Pita Cream Lime Mayo Dressing Recipe? Oh yes! Can we feel the summer-ness encroaching? What a winner of a weekend in terms of weather….
Parmesan Chicken with Roast Garlic Tomato Mole
I’m so excited to present this Banting recipe to you from “The Real Meal Revolution” book by Tim Noakes and Co. I bought the book because my hubby was interested in the whole low-carb and high-fat way of eating. As an ex-dietician, I was totally opposed to anything but the traditional dietary guidelines…I mean of…
Beer Battered Hake and Chips
Beer Battered Hake and Chips is soul food if you ask me. Especially if you’re at a seaside village and it comes wrapped up in newspaper. Aaaah love that!!! I’ve finally added a really tasty and really easy beer batter recipe, as well as a homemade chips recipe and a tartare sauce recipe. I made…
Easy Roast Gammon
A Roast Gammon can seem a little daunting to cook – perhaps it’s because they look fancy with all the pineapples and cherries and the talk of this glaze or that glaze. I’ve always delegated the gammon to an older, wiser person in the family with more cooking experience. BUT, I have now learnt exactly…
Broccoli Chicken
This is my own low-fat, hip-friendly, watching-what-you-eat-approved nommy broccoli chicken recipe!! Whoa! This dish is so full of taste and yet so light and healthy! Did I mention you can cook this in 15 minutes flat? Uhuh! So we’re ticking all the boxes here – easy, family friendly, nutritious and low in fat. If you…
Chutney Chicken
This recipe was given to me by my beautiful mother. It’ so quick and you really don’t need many ingredients which is what I love about it. Also, if you don’t have cream, you can always use mayonnaise. In fact a lot of people use mayonnaise instead of cream when making a Chutney Chicken dish…
Chicken and Sausage Paella
Never in a million years would I ever think to put sausage with chicken and make a paella. I always thought “Paella” was a seafood dish. In fact it is really a rice dish with seafood or chicken/meat or a mixture of both. Anyway, if you read my last post (strawberry and banana custard) you’ll…
Chicken and Guinness Bake
Yummy Yummy Yummy! My go-to recipe for this winter without a doubt. And, what’s even better it’s low in fat, nutritious (yes even with the beer) and it takes about 15 minutes to prepare. How about that!
