Hot Honey Beef Protein Bowl

A delicious high protein dinner which can be on the table in less than half an hour. What’s not to like!

Steak and cheese. What a combo. I’d been craving one of these for a while so after finding a tiger bread baton on a whoopsies I thought, tonight is the night! This is definitely not a traditional PCS as you’d never find a pepper or …

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 …

Cheeseburger Pasta

Sticky Hoisin Pork Fillet with Sesame Greens and Noodles

Pork fillet is a great, lean, cheap and cheerful addition to any meal plan. I often pick one up in Aldi for £3.49 and it easily serves 4 people, a bargain, I think. Always keen to come up with new ways to incorporate it into …

Pizza Fries

At the very start of my maternity leave, pre all of this lockdown madness, a friend and I went out for lunch with the babies to a local restaurant. On the menu were the most delightful looking ‘pizza fries’ and, not being back on the …
