In an attempt to improve my culinary repertoire, I’m trying to cook more and experiment with new recipes. My latest effort was broccoli, spinach and stilton soup, which I thought was tasty enough to be worthy of a mention. Meal planning in advance is not something I’m great at. It’s more a case of what can [read more]
Once again I was looking for some food inspiration so I reached for Madeline Shaw’s Get the Glow book – and with a chill in the air I decided it was a night for a warming curry. The recipe of choice this time was Madeline’s vegetarian squash curry, although I have to admit I did [read more]
Today was a day that called for a comforting bowl of soup. I could’ve made use of my soup stash from the freezer but I had some sweet potatoes that needed using up and Jamie Oliver’s red lentil, sweet potato and coconut soup took my fancy.

You can find the (super simple) recipe here on the Deliciously Ella website. The ingredients you’ll need for this coconut porridge are: Oats Coconut [read more]
