Last week was not the healthiest of food weeks. As England slipped back into lockdown, we found comfort foods on top of comfort foods showing up to console us. There were disappointments along the way but also an absolutely stunning chicken pot pie, a deliciously spicy lamb & aubergine stir fry and a phenomenally fast…

Weekly Roundup 29th October-4th November
The overwhelming feeling of the food we were making and eating last week was definitely fun. Some dishes were completely different from anything we’ve had before and others were small twists and none disappointed. I would honestly recommend every single recipe we tackled in the last week, but particular stand outs were the herby pork…
Weekly Roundup 22nd-28th October
This week’s recipes proved to be a bit hit and miss, but not in the way I was expecting. Some things I was really looking forward to fell flat, others were unexpected revelations. Particular highlights were a ridiculously easy Spanish chicken traybake and some cheeseburgers packed with stealth veg. Chicken & Leek Pot Pies Thursday…
Weekly Roundup 15th-21st October
Last week we had quite a lot of quick and easy meals and for the most part the results were far greater than the amount of effort required to make them. The Bengali Chicken Korma was a particular highlight, both to make and to eat.

Weekly Roundup 8th-14th October

Chilli Con Chicken Thursday Dinner https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/chicken-chilli-con-carne This was such a lovely twist on a classic. We love chilli con…
Weekly Roundup 1st-7th October
Here is my first little roundup of mini recipe reviews. Life has been pretty hectic of late (thanks 2020…) and finding time to write full recipe reviews with the amount of detail I’d like while looking after a toddler has been difficult, so I shall be writing these weekly roundups. I’ll still try to put…
Provençal-style poached chicken
Recipe from delicious. Magazine, March 2019 The recipe hasn’t been made available online. If this changes I will post a link here. This seemed like a light but filling dish for our Friday evening meal. As spring has arrived, poached meat and baby vegetables capture the season really well. Difficulty rating- 2/5, nothing complicated to…
Slow Cooker Chicken Tagine
Recipe from The Hairy Dieters Fast Food https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0297609319/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_jItKCbF1YZM6G I absolutely love Moroccan food and have generally really enjoyed recipes from this and all of the Hairy Bikers cookbooks. I’m making this knowing it will be good for me but with high expectations for a really flavourful dish. Difficulty rating- 1/5- a case of chop things…
