Chilli, Bacon & Chickpea Pasta – a Signature Dish
I was recently invited by Sainsbury’s to share my Signature Dish as they are running a Kitchen Heroes competition where “by Sainsburys” staples come to the rescue. I am the world’s worst meal planner and although I can see 2 or 3 days ahead after that I just tend to wing it; that’s when I…

Leftover Winter Vegetable Soup
I made this Leftover Winter Vegetable Soup just before Christmas as I’d made a glazed gammon joint and therefore had lovely gammon stock and vegetables left over from it. I was also very aware that like most Brits I’d over bought on the sprout front and had a bag I needed to use up before…
Brunch Quesadillas
