As it is exam time, I am charged with cooking the kids favourite meals. Mexican flavours are always top of the list. So I made a big pot of Bean Chilli and used it to make a Vegetarian Burrito Bowl, which went down very well indeed. The Bean Chilli was served with Brown Rice, Tomato […]
I made this bread yesterday and had it for breakfast this morning and it was yummy. It has a nutty flavour and is very satisfying. It is wheat, gluten, sugar, egg and grain free!!! It is high in Protein and Fibre. Buckwheat is high in Manganese and the phytonutrient Quercetin. Chia Sees are a good […]
The last two recipes from the “Moroccan Feast”. I used Argan Oil (cooking quality not beauty product oil) which I bought in Marrakech – it has a delicious toasty flavour but you could use Extra Virgin Olive Oil if you cannot get it or just would rather not try!!!!!
