November calls for comfort food, and lots of it. Now winter’s here I spend a lot of time thinking about what I would like to eat. And it’s mostly stodge. I have a standard list of staple family supper dishes and this Toad in the Hole appears regularly between November and April *or June if…
Hallowe’en’s not even over yet, but let’s move on to the next big date in the winter diary. It’s a busy time of year for outdoor celebrations. The Hallowe’en masks aren’t even off yet and already I’m turning my attention to the 5th of November activities. I love Bonfire Night, for me it’s the start…
It’s Hallowe’en next, so plan ahead with something other than sweets and chocolate to eat. It’s nearly Hallowe’en, well a week or so away, so I thought I would jump on the bandwagon and post this brilliant Corndog Muffins recipe.Hallowe’en is such an American phenomenon, so what better food to enjoy than these quintessentially US…
This week, I have been reviewing some coffee pods. So I decided to cook with them, as well as drinking them. When I was offered some wonderful coffee pods to review from Real Coffee I leapt at the chance. Coffee is one of my passions, along with 80s films, pink roses and Salad Cream, so having…
This crispy coated pork makes a tasty alternative to the super popular Katsu Chicken. As a family we love anything breaded. I fear I would eat a rat if it had been egg and breadcrumbed and fried *and probably have at dubious chicken outlets*. There’s something so tasty about the crisp crumb and it always…
It’s feeling a little nippy, time for snuggy comfort food and for time in your kitchen baking. When it comes to Marmite I am certainly in the love it camp. This does cause a problem, however, whilst I am trying to lay off the bread, as there is no receptacle for this truly British savoury…
It’s time to cast off light summer desserts, as October begins, it’s all about the warming puds. The polo neck jumpers are out, the coat’s back on and there are scrunchy leaves on the ground in Richmond Park. This can only mean one thing – the return of the hot pudding. I have, frankly, had…
We all need a bit of cheering up with that end of summer feeling nagging and these tasty hot wraps may be just the answer. The recipes I showcase here on Lucy Loves are often stylish, some are nutritious, all of them are delicious. Cheese Burger Quesadillas are neither stylish or massively nutritious, however, they…
As the holidays draw to a close, these sweet treats will bring some cheer to your friends and family. As I write it’s pouring down and the air is laden with all things autumnal. We have had a roast chicken for dinner, synonymous with chillier times, I am sipping red wine instead of the more…
While it’s still nice and warm, this recipe makes the perfect summer pud. Summer screams ice cream. It’s cooling, fruity and makes the most perfect dessert. Ice cream, for me, has the cache of being complicated to make, needing either an expensive ice cream making machine or hours of stirring and other kerfuffle. But thanks…
