How to cure a picky eater (and make it fun!)

How to cure a picky eater (and make it fun!)

I was so sure my kids wouldn’t be fussy eaters. I never thought I’d need to know how to cure a picky eater because I simply didn’t intend on having one! (Parenting is humbling, huh?) First of all, I hadn’t been a fussy eater as a kid. Apart from Brussel sprouts, I ate everything and Brussels […]

Authentic Italian Bolognese slow cooker recipe (and bonus Gnocchi Bolognese recipe)

Who doesn’t love a good Bolognese? Well, OK, maybe vegetarians, admittedly (for you, my lovelies, try my super-easy slow cooker macaroni cheese recipe).  This is an authentic Italian Bolognese slow cooker recipe, the slow cooker mimicking perfectly the long hours an Italian mama might once have spent simmering a pot of Bolognese on the stove. I’m going […]

Delicious and easy iced coffee

Delicious and easy iced coffee

OK, so this week is rainy but the sun will return, right?  To my mind, there is nothing better on a hot day than a long, cold, iced coffee. Unfortunately, they’re stupidly expensive in cafes and you may not be within spitting distance of a branch of Costa every time you feel like an iced […]

Lamb Navarin slow cooker recipe

Lamb Navarin slow cooker recipe

Navarin means “Spring-y” (I think!) so this lamb navarin slow cooker recipe is the perfect stew for this time of year. Imagine replacing the pasta in Pasta Primavera with lamb and you get close. I’m not that into stews so you know this has to be good. Ingredients for 4: 1- 1/2 lbs / 500-750 […]
