This family friendly vegetable curry recipe was inspired by a lunch our local day-nursery used to prepare for the children. At that time (2009/2010) personally I hadn't dared to serve curry to the family table, as my preconceptions were that children so small wouldn't like the taste of the spices. This is why I always encourage my kids to also eat elsewhere. ...
Step By Step My Food Waste Friday Routine
It's been a while since I have done a step by step Friday routine post - so here one is. On a Friday as well, who'd have thought it :) It's Friday - Food Waste Friday! In order to reduce the amount of food wasted, a few years back (almost 6) I implemented a Food Waste Friday routine here at Chez Wright. Regular readers know the original inspiration ...
Food Waste Friday | Spot The Difference
Can you spot the difference this Food Waste Friday? 1 is waste, 1 is fresh. I'm guessing you can spot the difference, although it can be tricky with salad - a photograph doesn't always show how inedible it is. Maybe it's the vibrant colours? I guarantee the salad on the left isn't edible, not by me anyway. It smells rather funky. What did I ...
Greek Yogurt Honey And Mustard Dressing
I'm not a fan of having a large array of condiments in the fridge. Firstly because my fridge is so small I cannot afford to take up that much space with irregularly used items. But also so many of them go to waste. Agree? Disagree? Have a think about your own condiment collection - or one you have had (I have been there believe me). As you walk the ...
Simple Date And Bran Loaf Recipe
Let me share a bran loaf recipe this Food Waste Friday... Time for a little story... ...the strangest thing happened this week.

Super Simple Breadcrumbs Recipe
It's Friday Guys - Food Waste Friday. Short and sweet this Friday, a simple breadcrumbs recipe. Wednesday morning I went to pop some bread in the toaster to discover that a toasted piece of bread had been left overnight.

How To Make Homemade Lip Balm

Luckily lip balm is really simple to make at home. This has numerous pros for us; Inexpensive We know what ingredients are in the lip balm (a big plus in my ...
Salmon And Sweet Potato Fish Cakes Recipe
Here's a super simple salmon and sweet potato fish cakes recipe that has rescued me from my non-existent meal-planning this week. Monday is the day when the internet comes alive with posts and tags about Meal Plan Monday. I don't do a Meal Plan Monday post. I don't meal plan on a Monday, but on a Friday. Well usually I do, but my Friday routine went ...
How To Make Pizza Vita
Regular readers will know I rarely post on a Saturday, but as I missed my weekly Food Waste Friday slot yesterday I just had to check in. Now you may be wondering why when I had promised a Food Waste Friday linky every week, I didn't honour my word. Too much of this I'd say: We spent the day at a trampoline park and then at the local Bella ...
Food Waste Good Friday
Happy Food Waste Friday! Happy Good Friday! Just a quick photo of some daffodils in bloom to celebrate not just the start of Spring, but also Easter 2016.
