Mexican Layer Bake

We usually roast a chicken on a Sunday and depending on our plans, end up with leftovers. This recipe is a great way to use them up!

Quick, dirty and a little bit spicy, this recipe is packed with flavour but still nice and low in calories/points. Delish if, like me, you love a cheeky buffalo wing! I use chicken mince here but if you prefer you can use turkey or quorn …

What started as trying out a tik tok trend has turned into one of my favourite quick and easy family meals. Some call it broken lasagne, some call it lasagne soup – whatever you want to call it, it tastes like lasagne but is made …

House Sugo at Home

I’ve been meaning to post this recipe for months and something always seems to come before it!! So without further ado….I discovered my favourite restaurant of all time, Sugo Pasta Kitchen, some years back when we lived in Manchester and after I tasted their House …
