Jam with rhubarb and ginger, I mean, what's not to like? Unless you don't like either of these ingredients, in which case you'd better not read any further. However, it only take two changes to amend this recipe to make rhubarb and orange jam, which I'll include at the end.* I love jam but I… Continue reading Homemade Rhubarb & Ginger Jam

Satay Recipe – Abi Style
Spicy, nutty, tangy and tasty - what's not to love? Is it weird that I'm not a massive fan of peanut butter on its own? I love peanuts and I love butter, but I find peanut butter on its own to be a bit tacky and dense - it gets stuck to the roof of… Continue reading Satay Recipe – Abi Style
Avocado Sauce
I know the avocado train has been well and truly exhausted, but as a massive avocado fan myself I had never tried avocado sauce before and I realised I was missing out!

Chickpea Curry
I know it's a wet, grey and day, but I'm absolutely loving it. Unfortunately the Handsome One had to work today, so I've had the most incredibly lazy Sunday with Bella.

My first attempt at jam
I never thought the day would come where I would be brave enough to try to make jam, but here we are! Our lovely new neighbours gave us a huge bunch of rhubarb and I thought this is my chance to attempt to make jam. After scrolling through some recipes on BBC Good Food, I… Continue reading My first attempt at jam
Tea Loaf Recipe
Happy Monday all! Did you all have a fantastic weekend? Mine was pretty quiet but that was exactly what I needed. After an extremely restful sleep, I woke up with an urge to do a bit of baking! I'm more of a cook that a baker - I find it is easier to overcome errors… Continue reading Tea Loaf Recipe
