OK, first things first. Just because this post is called 'basic oatmeal cookie recipe does not mean that the recipe is plain or boring in any way. I call it my basic recipe because it's so simple that even I can make it and can easily be made more with the addition of a handful or two of raisins or chocolate chips.I know these oatmeal cookies don't look too pretty but I promise you that they taste amazing with just the right balance between crunchy and chewy. The cinammon that I add (the amount of which seems to increase every time I make these) gives them a lovely warmth and whilst I … [Read more...]
Ham and Courgette Risotto…
Ham and Courgette Risotto is literally the best comfort food I know how to make (aside from Mac and Cheese obviously) so I'm doing you all a favour today sharing it with you!Honestly, it's amazing! I mean, it must be amazing to get me stood over a hot stove making risotto as I'm usually all about quick and easy when it comes to cooking!I'm the only person who's a fan of ham and courgette risotto (and any kind of risotto) in my house so I always make a portion big enough to serve two people and then have just over half for my tea and the rest of it for lunch the next day. I tend to … [Read more...]

Well, they are and even better than that, these super cute Valentine's Biscuits are just perfect to make for Valentines Day.Sometime last year, we went to a garden centre and had a sneaky hot chocolate in the cafe there and when it was served, it had a super cute little biscuit hanging on the side of the mug.

Homemade Healthy Roasted Tomato Soup….
It's definitely soup weather today and I have tomatoes in the oven roasting away ready to make this homemade tomato soup recipe. My homemade roasted tomato soup is absolutely amazing and I guarantee that once you've made it once, you'll make it again and again!I love the smell (and taste) of tomatoes that are sold on the vine as it reminds me of watering the tomatoes with my dad in his greenhouse when I was a child. The smell takes me right back to when I used to pester him to let me help with some of the watering and the memories that the smell brings back makes me feel safe … [Read more...]
Spicy Sweet Potato and Carrot Soup….
You're going to love this Spicy Sweet Potato and Carrot soup - especially if your sky is looking as grey right now as the sky outside my window is!After the success of my carrot and parsnip soup a couple of weeks ago, I thought I'd have a play about with some other flavour combinations and I decided to go for carrot and sweet potato but with an added kick of chilli to really spice it up. It really works well together and is not only souper (I can't help myself 😂 ) warming and filling on a cold day, it's also good for you with the added benefit of being syn free … [Read more...]
Hot Cross Bun Bread and Butter Pudding….
If you have leftover hot cross buns to use up then this hot cross bun bread and butter pudding is exactly what you need! I first made a variation of this hot cross bun bread and butter pudding recipe last year when Master Frugal had his Food Tech exams to practice for and was trying to master the custard part of his dish. I had four leftover hot cross buns to use up and seeing as he had his custard mix ready to go, I sliced up the hot cross buns and used them instead of bread! It was so nice that we bought a pack of hot cross buns that weekend just to make this with and that's not … [Read more...]
