We’ve got loads of leftovers from the holidays but i just cant face another ham/turkey/mince pie combo so I started to look what I had in my fridge and freezer and realised that I had lots of breakfast items but didn’t really want breakfast.

Warming and satisfying Lentil and Sausage soup
With Christmas finally over thoughts in our house turn to something substantial but not taxing to the system. It’s winter, it’s cold and damp outside and we also don’t want to be doing too much work in the kitchen after the recent festivities. This soup came about after seeing some pins and rooting around in…
Cranberry Jam so easy to make that you’ll never buy it again!!

Paella – with chicken, chorizo and seafood
Since I first had Paella on holiday as a kid, almost 30 years ago I was hooked. Fast forward 15 years and I had my first adult holiday to Ibiza and even though none of my friends wanted it, I had to have paella. The resulting individual paella for one was so obviously pulled out…
Takeaway review – Smoque Grill, Queens Park, Brighton – my best burger EVER!!
I don’t know about you but I do love a good burger. I’ve had lots in my time but often my much anticipated meaty loveliness leaves me feeling let down. Whether it’s size or taste or general standard I’m often left disappointed. Not so with Smoque grill of Queens Park in Brighton. I should start…
A Flabulous Lunch review – The Eddy, Brighton
I know, I know, I’m still being too quiet on the blog front as we are just so darned busy but I had to share a review of the wonderful lunch we had at the Eddy (The Edinburgh Pub) in Brighton. I should preface this by saying this was an informal works lunch and we…
