A family-friendly chilli recipe packed full of flavour and plant protein. As I was wandering through the supermarket the other day (mostly just trying to get my Fitbit step count up since the inclement weather outside wasn’t amenable to adventuring) I spotted a bag of frozen Quorn mince in the freezer section on offer, for just …
In collaboration with Breville. I have such a weakness for garlic, especially roasted garlic. I absolutely love the stuff! One of my favourite midweek meals is to roast a tray of chicken thighs and vegetables (beetroot and sweet potato, especially) along with a few whole bulbs of garlic. The whole thing gets drizzled with olive …
Starring the sputnik of the vegetable kingdom. So you’ve got this strange sputnik-type vegetable in your veg box. A kohlrabi, it’s called, you find out after asking the Twittersphere. Ok, that was me. I’d never seen a kohlrabi until one appeared in my veg box a few years ago and I really did snap a …
A lazy weekend or midweek meal recipe idea. Spaghetti, for me, is the ultimate in comfort food. It brings me back to my childhood and the eight zillion plates of spaghetti I grew up on; spaghetti swimming in jarred Ragu sauce. Gosh I loved that stuff. There were no lashings of cheese to serve over …
A recipe, review and giveaway in collaboration with Just Us Box. I first took an interest in cooking around the age of 12 or 13. My mother had been gifted a cookery book for Christmas one year and I found its contents utterly fascinating. The only other cookery book I remember having in my childhood …

A Redmond Multicooker recipe – only 225 calories per serving! I love a good curry, me. I’ve been making variations of this particular curry recipe for some time now – it began with using sweet potato and adding handfuls of kale or spinach at the end, but, like many people, I’ve been on a sensible …
I’m always looking for speedy supper ideas. As much as I love spending time over the cooker, some nights I really can not be bothered. Those nights tend to be the three nights in the week I’m working in our village co-operative – my ‘getting out of the house’ job where I work a few …
In collaboration with Expedia and their #WorldonaPlate Challenge. It’s funny how our tastes change as we grow up. My childhood diet was quite limited – baked meat and mashed potatoes being the staple, supplemented with seasonal wild fruits harvested ourselves (one wild strawberry for the basket, three for me!). I was very reluctant to try …
A Redmond Multicooker recipe. I was never really a fan of cabbage up until a few years ago. I had a fantastic Sunday dinner at Busta House Hotel in Brae, Shetland, and they served an incredibly delicious braised red cabbage on the side. I’ve been hooked ever since, especially since red cabbage often makes an …
Freshly toasted and ground cumin and a touch of cayenne give this hummus recipe a nice kick. There must be at least a hundred different ways to make hummus, and we each tend to have our favourite version. Mine includes plenty of toasted and freshly ground cumin seeds and a generous pinch of cayenne for …
A delicious creamy green soup showcasing the humble broad bean! The first time I’d ever tried broad beans was in a Moroccan inspired chicken tagine recipe some years ago. The only broad beans I could find at the time were frozen ones – and they were awful; tough, rubbery, inedible. These supermarket brand frozen broad …
In collaboration with Rennies. The summer growing season is officially in full swing! Poor weather for the first half of this year has meant that many gardens in Shetland have been suffering. Things haven’t been growing as well as they could be and so we’ve only started receiving weekly (instead of fortnightly) vegetable box deliveries. …
