John decided to go vegetarian a good few months ago now which means we eat slightly different things for a lot of meals. Sometimes, we eat a completely different meal altogether. When we do this it’s sometimes easier to have something for John in the freezer so he doesn’t have to spend ages cooking after work. One of John’s favourites is bolognese as there are many different uses for it! So, here is my vegetarian bolognese that only costs about 60p per portion!

Air Fryer Brussel Sprouts
Brussel spouts, whether you like them or not, are a traditional part of Christmas dinner. I, personally, am not a fan myself but my husband John LOVES them.

Spinach and Mushroom Mini Quiches
Now that we have moved away from purees and are now a bigger mix of real meals and finger foods I needed to change how I cook for Erin. She loves picking up her food and feeding herself now so I know I need to make things she can eat on her own. I thought I would start with mini quiches. Now, the last time I remember making a quiche was way back in secondary school so we’re talking at least 14 years ago. I did cheat and used a pre-packaged Jus-Rol shortcrust pastry because I
The perfect yorkshire pudding
It has taken me years to be able to make a really good yorkshire pudding. I remember it being one of the first things I tried to cook on my own, although I have no idea why. My mum has always made quite stodgy yorkshire puddings and I have always loved them. My husband really likes quite flat yorkshire puddings. Luckily, for years I have been making them just like my mum. However, just recently I have fancied something different. I wanted to be able to make yorkshire puddings like you see at a carvery
