This week in advance of Burns Night on Wednesday, Lucy is treating us to a slightly boozy version of a childhood favourite. When I was young, as I know I have mentioned before, puddings were few and far between. Fruit, yoghurt, jelly at best, all slim pickings really. Until the invention of Angel Delight that…
This week, Lucy is making a simple but tasty cake, and as it’s made with yoghurt, it’s surely a healthy offering. Sometimes, only a simple sponge cake will do. Especially at this time of the year, when the last thing you want to do is spend any time in the kitchen. I may as well have set…
This week, Lucy is back and she’s sharing an elegant family supper dish, which could also utilise some more Christmas leftovers. Happy new year to you all, if you are not sick to death of hearing that or saying it yet. I am also not quite ready to say hello to the new healthy 2017…
This week Lucy is running around in the Christmas week build up. Her tasty dinner recipe only takes around 30 minutes to make, but for huge reward. It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, so the song says. And so it should do as I have been slaving my backside off cooking, shopping, decorating, singing…
This week, Lucy is sharing her version of this dessert which makes a great alternative to the usual Christmas pud. There’s nothing more delicious than a Festive Trifle. A sweeping statement maybe, but I think a trifle is worthy of such high praise. Over Christmas, as you probably already know, there is far too much…
This week, Lucy has been working on her pre Christmas nibbles game and come up with this festive version of the classic sausage roll. This week, I have been turning my attention to Christmas at last. Too many things have been getting in the way of real life and I haven’t even felt remotely festive. So I decided to…
This week Lucy is treating us to a warming, comforting soup, which also has a healthy, low carb element to it. My endeavour to find comforting winter food which can be made without an oven continues. This weekend I faced my biggest challenge thus far as I finally waved goodbye to my oven and my kitchen…
This week Lucy is treating us to this no-churn iced dessert, perfect as a make ahead dinner party dessert. As you know, because I moan about it all the time, we are in the middle of kitchen refurb hell. My kitchen currently consists of an oven, sink and washing machine and a lot of plaster…
This week Lucy is taking some time out and making her own healthy, refined sugar free bread. In our house the bread of choice is sliced white. Not with me, but with the boys, tasteless little types that they are. I am not a huge bread eater, but when I do eat it, I want…
This week to celebrate Bonfire Night on 5th November Lucy has created a colourful chocolatey treat for all the family to enjoy. Compared to Hallowe’en these days, Bonfire Night was much more of a big deal when I was a child. We went to numerous local fireworks extravaganzas, had sparklers at home and my sister…
