A whole red cabbage is always too much for just me and Paul and rather than have it raw twice, I wondered what it would be like baked as we recently had roasted broccoli in a salad which was a great success. The halloumi went really well with all of the flavours and the texture…

Healthier and Light Brown Sugar Farmhouse Sultana Loaf Cake Recipe
I’m not keen on using white sugar as I prefer to use the brown unrefined raw cane sugars. This cake was really yummy and is very light.

Soya and Cannellini Bean Salad with Salami and Mint Recipe
Frozen Soya Beans are so handy to have to add to salads. Unlike broad beans you don’t have to worry about peeling off the shells. We also always keep tinned pulses in the cupboard as well. The mint was from our garden and the salami was left overs too. This salad is crunchy fresh and…
Beef, Broccoli and Spinach Stir Fry with a Honey and Pepper Sauce Recipe

Rosemary and Parmesan Croutons on a Coppa Ham, Rocket and Tomato Salad with a Drizzle of Balsamic Vinegar Recipe
Got some leftover stale bread? Make your own crouton’s. The texture of these crunchy little morsels are so much nicer and so much less greasy than the shop kind. It is so good knowing I used all of my wholemeal bread (recipe here) with no wastage. The Coppa Ham melted in my mouth but that…
Puy Lentil, Pickled Carrot and Chorizo Salad with a Wholegrain Mustard Dressing Recipe

Grilled Scottish Langoustines with Lemon and Pepper Butter Recipe
So if you saw my last post you know that we treated ourselves to some scrummy shellfish. So alongside our oysters we also had these langoustines.
