Gruyère and Parmesan twice baked cheese soufflés

It’s Friday and that means it’s the start of the weekend! So why not treat yourself to something absolutely delicious? Soufflés are notoriously tricky and are basically a show stopper for you to impress your guests, or quite frankly even yourself! But this soufflé is twice baked, meaning it’s a lot easier and less of a…

Baked apple crumble pots with oats and cinnamon

Here’s a tasty recipe for apple crumble. A recipe that made me actually like apple crumble after years of absolutely hating the stuff. Bitter, sour apples under unsweetened baked flour mix? No thanks. My mum (sorry mum!) for years had me dreading the stuff. As a child, my mum would cook this every Sunday; amazing…

Spruced up corned beef hash with sweet potatoes and chilli

Chorizo, Chicken and Tomato Stew

It’s the first day that has seriously felt like Autumn, and definitely not the good kind of Autumn! Cold, wet and dull…blargh! So to warm us both up I made a delicous and very economical dinner! Sorry, it’s not a ‘#meatfreemonday’, but today I needed this. What’s great about this dish (if for two people)…
