An oldie but a goodie. Our five bean chilli recipe is one that we come back to time and time again. In fact, in winter months, it’s a regular on our meal rotation. We always make big batches so that we can divide it up and freeze it for a later date. There’s nothing better than […]

We hadn’t made a Thai Green Curry for ages. I’m not sure where the inspiration came from when we were in the supermarket, but we both fancied something relatively healthy, with lots of colourful veggies. (Standard procedure for us!).

Instead of using a more common red kidney bean and meat combo, we’ve used black beans and added a touch of sweetness with grilled pineapple. The mix of ingredients and strong flavours, work perfectly together. If […]

I normally find thinking of a dish for dinner quite stressful, especially when we have very little food in the house. However, sometimes I really enjoy it, particularly if we have a couple of ingredients left over in the fridge that need eating. In this case it was a couple of courgettes. We hadn’t used […]
