  • Easy Vegetarian Lasanga

    Style 1 cropped

    Lasagna is family comfort food at its finest! A great way to get vegetables in a larger amount is with a vegetarian dish - as you are 'encouraged' to use more vegetables then normal in replacement for meat. This vegetarian lasagna is a favourite in our house, nice and soft for little mouths with enticing bubbling cheese on top!

  • Indian Inspired Chicken Crock-Pot

    The beauty of a crock-pot (also called a slow cooker) is that you can prepare your dinner in the morning so that when 5 pm hits, you have this beautiful warm meal ready to go. As food is cooked on low heat, the meat and vegetables retain a lot of their nutrients, plus all the juices (and goodness) from the meat flavours all the vegetables.

    Here is a recipe we make regularly at home as it is super...

  • Healthy Spiced Cherry Ham Glaze

    For Blog

    Ham at Christmas time is a long standing tradition for many families. However, many traditional ham glazes are full of sugar, especially refined sugar. Made with real fruit, Christmas spices and free of re-fined sugar this recipe is a much healthier alternative for a ham glaze - and I think this also makes a wonderful hand-made Christmas gifts inside little jars with a pretty ribbon!
