After last week's mini egg omelettes success I thought I'd try making them again but this time I made them with the intention of using up some broccoli and grated cheese that was left over from when I made macaroni cheese with broccoli and bacon last night. They were even more delicious than last weeks version! Don't worry, I'm not going to share a different egg muffin recipe each week - this one was too good not to share though.... Cheesey Broccoli Egg Muffins 4 eggs (beaten with a splash of milk and seasoned) Broccoli Grated cheese Leftover ham if you have some Grease a … [Read more...]
Mini Egg Omelettes – Great for breakfast on the go, Slimming World or just for a Yummy snack….
One of my favourite ways to use up leftovers is to make slow cooker fridge bottom frittata and I was planning to cook it last night for tea but clever me decided to make a batch of homemade tomato sauce when I got home from work without thinking that I'd be needing to use the slow cooker for the frittata! So instead of making one big frittata to use up some leftover bits and bobs, I decided to make mini frittatas in the oven instead and actually, now that I've made them this way I think they would be great to make for breakfasts and mini snacks as well as being great for those of you … [Read more...]
Slow Cooker Chocolate Tea-cup Cakes (baked in china tea cups)….
Last Summer Master Frugal bought me a beautiful set of mini cups and saucers from the car boot sale. He saw that I liked the set and then talked his Dad into taking him back (pretending to go to the toilet) to buy them with his own pocket money. They were beautiful but I had no clue what to do with them really so they've just been gathering dust - until today! I decided to attempt to make some cakes in them using the slow cooker and seeing as they actually turned out really well, I thought I'd share my success with you. ;-) I used my recipe for Baileys Cupcakes as I'm planning on … [Read more...]
Apple and Banana Cake….
I have no idea why I've never tried making apple and banana cake before! I have them both in my fruit basket on a daily basis but I've never thought of putting them together until today. I can tell you one thing though - now I have tried an apple and banana cake, we'll definitely be having it more often because it's delicious. Banana and Apple Cake Squares 225g softened butter 1 egg 3 mashed bananas (mine were on the small side so I needed 3 but I'd say 2 would be OK ususally) 1 apple grated (I dabbed mine with some kitchen roll so it wasn't too wet) 1 capful of Vanilla essence 125g … [Read more...]
Homemade Polenta Fries….
For those of you who don't follow my meal planning blog, Meal Planning Made Easy, I thought you might like to have a quick drool over my new favourite food - homemade polenta fries. Polenta fries are a delicious alternative to normal fries and they're relatively cheap too - 74p worth of polenta did plenty of fries for us all! All I do is slice the polenta and coated them in olive oil sprinkled on some seasoning and popped them in the air fryer until they looked golden (15-20 minutes). You could just cook them in the oven on a high heat if that's easier for you though. Don’t miss … [Read more...]
Slow cooker jacket potatoes….
OK, I have been told lots of times that you can cook jacket potatoes in the slow cooker but for some unknown reason, until recently I'd never actually tried making them in there. Then a while ago we were having people round for drinks and I decided to make a chilli in the slow cooker but thought it would be nice to serve it with baked potatoes instead of rice (less chance of food dropping off the fork ;-)). As I had enough to think about, I decided to try making the jacket potatoes in the slow cooker rather than the oven so I made each one a little wrapping out of foil, pricked it with a … [Read more...]
