Warm Apple Pimms: gently spiced with cinnamon and flavoured with dark rum for an extra kick, this is the perfect alternative to mulled wine! Guess who won’t be winning any awards for inventive drinks naming? Hey, it does what it says on the tin: warm apple Pimms! I can’t quite bring myself to start the mulled wine drinking until we hit December. That said, I Read Post
Nutty Avocado Quinoa Salad
Two great things happened in the making of this post. One: I magically managed to get the white balance on my camera perfect meaning these photos required zero editing (a rarity!). Two: I found an avocado that was both perfectly ripe AND perfect enough to look pretty in photos. Seriously guys, these are the things that make me happy these days… Oh! And of course Read Post
Cinnamon Apple Baked Oatmeal
As soon as November arrives my obsession with cinnamon apple baked oatmeal begins once again. It makes a perfect warming breakfast that’s healthy yet satisfying. Eat it with a big dollop of yoghurt and I guarantee you’ll start your day off right! I’ve still never quite managed to become a morning person (someone teach me please!?). Having something like this to hand makes everything a little Read Post
Chicken Quinoa Curry
This chicken quinoa curry is a great alternative to ready meals or takeaway curries. It’s packed full of veggies, protein-rich quinoa and lean chicken, making it a super healthy meal. You can whip it up in one pot in around 30 minutes which means less washing up and more time to enjoy your evenings! Quinoa has become pretty trendy recently, and rightfully so. It’s really filling and has a Read Post
Nutella Pecan Pie Bars
If the Amaretto Pumpkin Pie Bars didn’t tip you off, this should tell you that I’ve got a bit of a thing for American seasonal desserts at the moment. This recipe is one of the first desserts I ever cooked from scratch, 3 years ago in my student kitchen which, inexplicably, was bigger than my current one is! For some insane reason I haven’t actually made it Read Post
Slow Cooker BBQ Pulled Pork
Ahhh bbq pulled pork, let me count the ways I love thee… 1. in a brioche bun, smothered in monterey jack cheese with crunchy gherkins 2. tucked into soft tortillas, with jalapenos + homemade guacamole 3. on pizza, with onions + sweet peppers 4. in pulled pork mac n cheese (you better believe this is happening soon!) Ahem. My slow cooker’s been getting a little neglected lately. For somebody who Read Post
Homemade Brioche Burger Buns
Who’s ready to have their kitchen filled with the sweet scent of homemade brioche burger buns?? My first foray into baking with yeast was sort of thrust upon me after agreeing to bake something along with the Great British Bake Off them each week. I made cinnamon rolls, which turned out to be both easy and delicious. I know that a lot of people (myself Read Post
Warm Halloumi Butternut Squash Salad
If I were a vegetarian (unlikely to ever happen!) I imagine there’d be a very high percentage of halloumi in my diet. It’s one of my favourite cheese’s – which is a tough gig, let me tell you – and is so versatile. This warm halloumi butternut squash salad is a slightly healthier take on cheese. The salty halloumi and sweet. nutty butternut squash pair Read Post
Lemon + Garlic Roasted Green Beans
Until recently I always thought I didn’t like green beans. I’d only ever had them boiled, which I find only serves to make them slimy and bland – ugh. Roasted green beans, on the other hand, are a beautiful thing. Roasting allows you to easily add seasonings and gives them a slightly crisp texture. These lemon + garlic roasted green beans make a great side dish for just Read Post
Amaretto Pumpkin Pie Bars
Pumpkin pie is definitely more of an American tradition than a British one, but after making it last year and receiving hearty nods of approval from my then-flatmates, it seemed only right to give it another go. The warming spices make these amaretto pumpkin pie bars the perfect dessert for chilly winter nights. I’ve made a few changes to my original recipe this time round. Firstly, I’ve Read Post
