On a lazy bank holiday Monday, why not try and make your own McDonalds breakfast? It’s probably healthier (kind of), cheaper and at least you know what you are eating! I’ll admit, I have had a cheeky McDonalds breakfast before and as tasty as it is, you always feel a bit guilty and sluggish afterwards….

Grilled Lime and Chipotle Salmon Tacos
I haven’t disappeared! I realise I haven’t posted anything for a very long time and I think it’s time I made up for that. How about something fresh and exciting? I love making Mexican food, but there is only so many chicken fajitas I can eat. So I thought I would give this a try….
Bored of Onion Bhajis? Try these!

It’s Pancake Day!
I love pancake day! Or Shrove Tuesday…I’ll be honest, I don’t really know the meaning behind it but if it means that I am socially encouraged to eat pancakes then so be it. I guess I am just a conformist. I went for the sweet option this morning, with lemon, sugar and blueberries but you…

Brixton is full of great pop up places to eat, from jerk chicken to fresh ramen, you are spoilt for choice. Zoe’s Ghana Kitchen is run by, guess who…Zoe! She…
Roasted Butternut Squash Soup
Happy new year all 🙂 As we get into January, all I seem to see is diet adverts, documentaries, books and more. Diet, diet, diet…boring! Let’s be honest, they don’t last long. Why not just eat a healthy balanced diet throughout the year and have a treat every so often, or in my case more…
A Christmas treat…Gingerbread!
Merry Christmas everyone! It’s the best time of the year, a time when you can bake as much as you want and not feel guilty about it. So this year I decided to make gingerbread and oh my gosh they are so delicious and dangerously easy to keep eating. Now please don’t laugh at my…
The Great Yorkshire Pudding
The big day is nearly here! Are you ready to make an epic Christmas dinner? It’s the best part of the day and what would it be without homemade, fresh and crisp Yorkshire puddings! I think a great roast dinner has to be served with the best roast potatoes and the best vegetables. I also think…
