I’ve a confession to make, I have an almost phobia about jars of tomato pasta sauce. Pesto is ok, and other package df food- chicken nuggets, packet soup, potato waffles but I cannot bear pasta sauce. Why? Because possibly, OK, definitely because I overdosed on it in college, back when Dolmio…
I’ve blogged a recipe for Chicken and Broccoli Bake before, in fact it’s the most popular recipe on the blog, possibly due to the fact that the words “very easy” appear in its title. You can find that recipe HERE. However, that recipe uses tinned soup and has been one…
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…
In my neverending quest to think of things that my children might eat I googled “egg muffins”, and made these. They’re like mini-frittata, handy for breakfast or lunchboxes. My eldest wasn’t a fan but the smaller two loved them, Miss L seeking a third one. You can play around with…
There are a few facts in life about feeding kids, and one that I’ve found to be very true is that they’ll eat nearly anything that contains sausages (or if they won’t eat it, at least they’ll pick the sausages out of it and eat them). I fancied trying something…

I’ve written about the chaos that can ensue when I bring my children to the supermarket, the running up and down the aisles and the general mayhem. One of the things that they beg for are the bags of cookies in the bakery aisle as you go in, the smell…
I’m getting tired now of posting our dinners, especially when they are like this week’s (nothing to boast about) so this might be the end of this short series. You’ll notice that dinners here at the start of the week are very homemade and healthy and that as the week…
Those dotty bananas, the lunchbox rejects that children in this house turn their noses up at. They look at you (me) accusingly from the fruitbowl demanding to be used. Mostly, I pop them in the freezer for later (just in their skins) and turn them into Brown Sugar Banana…
