Happy Food Waste Friday Y'all. This Friday I'd like to share two ways to use up potatoes. Or rather two pies to use up potatoes. If you read my post yesterday, you'll already know that my fanatical meal-planning has taken a dive. Currently I'm not obsessively planning dinners for the week to come, it's more in the style of ...
Emergency Cod And Potato Pie Recipe
In an emergency you can't go wrong with a cod and potato pie recipe for a simple but nutritious meal... Hey, hey, hey if my eyes do not deceive me, I do believe my fingertips are skimming across my laptop keyboard with ferocious enthusiasm. That must mean there's light at the end of the tunnel. (even Mum's who want a 'family life simply done' from time ...
Does Size Matter? Let’s Talk Freezers!
This Food Waste Friday, let's talk freezers. As my family grows older (and the kids take on more sporting activities) there is a definite increase in the amount of food that is being consumed. My grocery philosophy has always been to buy just what we need for the next 7 days - and this has worked to date. But I'm noticing a change in the volume of food ...
Something’s Gotta Give
We can read countless books on productivity and on getting things done, but from time to time something's gotta give. Mothers can feel as though they should be able to conquer the world, to take things on regardless of how little time they actually have available. Even mothers who are committed to a 'family life simply done' do this - knowing that a life ...
Food Waste Friday | Introducing Rejuce
As a blogger I'm approached daily by brands and businesses. In fact the majority of my blog e-mail consists of PR & Media companies contacting me asking for collaboration. You may have noticed that there have been a handful of sponsored posts over the last few months. 'Handful' being the point. I only ever give airtime to things I truly believe in. ...
BBQ Sweet & Sour Pork Kebab Recipe
You gotta love the great British weather. Flip flops one day, Wellington boots the next. I am showing my toes today, but not sure how long for - it's a bit chilly. A day may start of sunny and end in rain, or vice versa. The key to appropriate clothing in Britain is to act like a good boy/girl scout - and 'be prepared'. With this in mind, and with the ...
How To Make Watermelon Lemonade
Watermelon regularly makes an appearance here on Food Waste Friday. Guess what? We have watermelon to use up once more. I was a little over enthusiastic when cutting the kids watermelon for an after-school snack yesterday. It didn't all get eaten, so into my Nutri-Ninja cup it went. And it's still there! Time for watermelon lemonade me ...
How Do You Save Bananas?
It's Friday Guys - Food Waste Friday. Today we are going bananas (yes even I cringed at that!). Yesterday my ham-handed hubby managed to accidentally split the skins on two over-ripe bananas while separating the third from the bunch. Now, I'm no stranger to making a banana save: There's Banana and Ginger Loaf with no added fat or sugar ...
Simple Chocolate Fudge Cake Recipe
We are big fans of cake to celebrate at Chez Wright, and this simple chocolate fudge cake recipe is a favourite. Today marks the end of the (somewhat controversial) Year 6 SATs in the UK. Time for cake. As specially requested by First-Born. But unlike the tradition of 'Back2School' cake - which is shared among the family only - this 'End of SATs' cake ...
