Butternut squash and orange soup- vitamin c packed

January 7, 2012

Hands up who wasn’t ill over Christmas? Nearly everyone I have spoken to had at least one poorly member of their family we certainly had our fair share as is fairly typical at this time of year. We have had ear infections, colds, coughs you name it, myself included, and I never get a cold. [...]

Gluten Free Tortillas (wraps)

January 4, 2012

We love enchiladas, in fact we love any big comfort food. I’m afraid my children have inherited my passion for it. However it is bloomin’ hard finding gluten free wraps to make them with. I have bought them before, by the dozen because of the postage costs but they tend not to roll easily without [...]

Warming Cauliflower Soup and Golden Croutons

November 24, 2011

I was watching an episode of the Great British Food Revival a couple of weeks ago and was shocked to find out that one of my favourite vegetables has gone out of fashion with the British public. What is it? The humble cauliflower no less, a cheap versatile vegetable that is in my opinion very [...]

Boozy Cherry & Chocolate Roulade

October 24, 2011

I’ve been making Mary Berry’s chocolate roulade for years and after seeing roulades being made on the Great British Bake Off wet my appetite once again.  I also saw a tin of mouthwatering morello cherries and immediately thought they would be a perfect addition to this rich but light, mouthwatering dessert. Even better it’s naturally [...]

Goats Cheese Salad and Pesto

September 26, 2011

I was excited to be given a bag full of ingredients from Capricorn Goats Cheese at the Tech n Taste conference I went to a couple of weeks ago. Attached was a recipe which I have more or less stuck to with the addition of pomegranate seeds. The recipe was a huge hit with the [...]

Almond & Apple Cupcakes- Gluten Free

September 19, 2011

Last year I made virtually the same cupcakes but I fancied a change and at the moment have a penchant for all things almond…can’t get enough of it. Also I have found that with Doves gluten free flour you can do more or less everything gluten free and it makes absolutely no difference to the [...]

Plum and Almond Dessert

August 14, 2011

It’s that lovely time of year again when the apples, pears, plums and blackberries are ready to be picked so I took some time out from packing boxes to gather the harvest and make a cake. An upside down plum and almond one to be precise! It takes all of 10 minutes preparation and then [...]

Who says you have to pay £80 for a Gluten Free cake?

May 6, 2011

Some of my twitter followers will remember that last week I was looking for a gluten free cake for my son’s birthday. It’s not that I don’t make him cakes it was just that I wanted to treat him to one that looked professional and one that you could buy in a shop. He misses [...]

Easter Delights

April 13, 2011

These really are delightful melt in the mouth goodies, don’t blame me if you can’t stop popping them in your mouth though. I first saw this recipe on The Recipe Girl and thought they looked amazing. I love the bright white chocolate that she has used to coat her truffles but I have never seen [...]
