If you check out the recipes here on Bumbles of Rice you may notice that there are a few themes. One major thing about food in this house, is that as a rule, it’s quick. Hopefully tasty too, but quick wins here. The second key characteristic of a Bumbles of…
It’s coming up to Easter which means that every recipe will now be adorned with mini eggs, chocolate bunnies and chicks. And this one is no different. The boys wanted to do Easter baking. I agreed but wanted to keep it simple. They consulted their “Children’s Cookbook” and Cathal (4)…
As promised in my review (including a giveaway of a copy) of “Life in the Fast Lane” by Derval O’Rourke yesterday in the week here’s a dinner recipe from it that’s established itself as a favourite at our table. My usually fussy four-year-old ate every scrap of the recipe below, asked for…
I threw open the invitation to all to submit their Week in Dinners last month and having seen Cara’s Joan Mulvihill commented on facebook so I asked to to share hers too, and here it is! If you’d like to share your Week in Dinners, on a normal week, nothing fancy…
I put a call out in the weekindinners linky post for people who didn’t have blogs to email me to share their #weekindinners too, and Cara from Cavan, who I’ve been tweeting for years came up with the goods. Cara, like me, is a working mum of three so I love to…

I persist with trying to get the kids to eat curry. I also struggle to get stew into them. This meant that this dish, a curry, was a big risk. I ran out of some of the ingredients halfway through but I kept going. The boys saw the dinner and…
I know, to most, broccoli soup sounds more like a threat than a tasty tea, but it doesn’t have to be that way. This recipe has really opened me to the idea. It’s quick and easy and uses only three ingredients (four if you count the oil). The result is…
I may not have shared a full “week in dinners” for a long time (In fact, the last time I did was August, one with a healthy twist) but I have been eating, and feeding my family – and sharing lots of meals on my Instagram feed. There are weeks…
