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...]
Super Tasty Carrot and Parsnip Soup….
The sweetness of the parsnips in this carrot and parsnip soup really takes it to another level!This is a souper simple (see what I did there 😂 ) homemade carrot and parsnip soup recipe that's not only cheap and easy to make but it also tastes absolutely amazing with the parsnips adding a whole new depth of flavour. I made this using half a bag of carrots and half a bag of parsnips which I got for 19p per bag which means that the soup literally cost about 10p per serving which makes it taste even nicer if you ask me. I had a big portion for lunch and have one in … [Read more...]
Traditional Bubble and Squeak Recipe….
At this time of year, the one recipe that should be at the top of your must-cook list should absolutely be this traditional Bubble and Squeak recipe!Traditional Bubble and Squeak is made from cooked potatoes and cabbage, mixed together and fried but my Dad used to make his with whatever leftover vegetables we had on the day. We had it every Boxing day using our Christmas Dinner leftovers and at least once a month using Sunday Dinner leftovers often served with a poached egg on top and some slices of cold meat with it.I make my own version now and it's one of those tastes that … [Read more...]

Homemade Slow Cooker Cranberry Sauce….
Today I'm sharing my version of homemade slow cooker cranberry sauce and I guarantee you're going to LOVE it.I've never been a fan of cranberry sauce really but that's not really surprising when you consider that until last December, I'd only ever tried shop bought versions of cranberry sauce!Last year though, I tried some homemade cranberry sauce during my work's Christmas meal out and it tasted amazing. Honestly, it was almost unrecognisable from the shop bought versions I'd tried previously so I decided to have a go at making my own at the last minute.My first … [Read more...]
Homemade Gingerbread Wreath….
Last year, Master Frugal made the most amazing homemade Gingerbread wreath at school and it looked amazing! It looked that good that when I shared a photo of it on Instagram, I got about ten DMs asking me to blog about it. I tend to shut my laptop over Christmas though so I never got around to sharing it - until now!I'm resharing this today as I've just made some homemade gingerbread biscuits using this recipe and have had a couple of DMs asking for the recipe. This is our tweaked recipe from the version they made at school - ours has more ginger in as we love it and we … [Read more...]
