Up until I was in my late 20's, I'd always cooked scrambled eggs in the microwave. It was just the way I'd been taught to make it as a kid, and it had never crossed my mind to try cooking it in a pan. I would beat a couple of eggs together with a pinch … Continue reading Mushroom Scrambled Eggs
When I was about 14 years old, I got a Saturday job working in a cafe at a golf driving range. I loved it, and ended up staying there until I was 18, I only left when I moved away to go to University. Each staff member did everything - cooking in the kitchen, organising … Continue reading Sausage And Bean Breakfast Wrap
This is a regular mid-week breakfast for me as it's really quick and easy, contains 1 of my 5 a day (2 if I wash it down with fresh fruit juice) and it tastes so good! Yes, it's a bit more effort than just spreading the toast with jam, but not much, and it sets … Continue reading Pan Fried Tomatoes With Mushrooms On Toast

You can see now why I've included it. I'm going to just come out and say it: I'm a fan … Continue reading Veggie McMuffins
Curly Kale is a fantastic, underappreciated veg. It's similar to cabbage but with a subtler flavour and it's packed full of Iron and nutrients. It's pretty versatile too and can be eaten raw (see my Kale and Broccoli Coleslaw) or boiled and served with a Sunday roast like you would with cabbage. However, this recipe … Continue reading Breakfast Kale
My husband's family quite often visit us on a Sunday and they usually arrive around 10 or 11am. We wont have had anything to eat before they arrive as we're either having a lie in or running round tidying up ready for them (usually the latter). So when they arrive, we're getting pretty hungry and … Continue reading Eggs In Hell
