BBQ Sweet & Sour Pork Kebab Recipe

May 25, 2016 by SimplyBeingMum

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 ...

Food Waste Friday | Spot The Difference

April 22, 2016 by SimplyBeingMum

Salad

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

April 19, 2016 by SimplyBeingMum

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 ...

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 ...

Vegetable Lasagne Using Greek Yogurt

February 5, 2016 by SimplyBeingMum

Vegetable Lasagne Using Greek Yogurt

Before I go any further I need to make a statement: Despite always spelling yogurt, as yoghurt, I am now spelling it yogurt - even though it looks completely wrong to my eye. This is because on the yoghurt carton in my fridge it is spelled 'yogurt'. Does that make any sense at all? No? Okay let's continue with Food Waste Friday... Last Friday I decided ...

Normal Friday Service Resumes

September 4, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

Hi Guys - It's Food Waste Friday. (on a Friday I follow my Food Waste Friday | No Waste Tastes Great routine.) I've been away from the blog since the last time I officially hosted Food Waste Friday, which was 2 weeks ago now. Normal service has resumed. I have a functioning blog. Yay! A new improved one. Double Yay! Simply Being Mum's Friday ...

Emergency Mid-Week Meal | Pasta Bake

August 14, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

It's Friday Guys. Food Waste Friday. This week Kristen (The Frugal Girl) is officially hosting so head on over to hers at the bottom of this post. Today's Friday photo is a rare glimpse of the outside of our fridge. Inside it's stocked with food items, as I had to do a grocery shop yesterday (Thursday). I'm all out of routine this week. My No Waste ...

Did I listen to what you said about Food Waste Friday?

June 19, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

Good Morning! It's Food Waste Friday! Hi Guys, it's not my week to host. Officially Food Waste Friday is over at Kristen The Frugal Girl's today - so head on over and link up. But after you've read (and commented) on my blog post! (pretty please?) Last week I asked for help on how to improve my Food Waste Friday posts. The feedback received I digested and ...

No Waste Tastes Great / What A Waste!

June 5, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

Hey Guys it's Friday. It's #FoodWasteFriday. As always on a Friday I follow my No Waste Tastes Great routine. Now this used to involve photographing my fridge, but the strange lady (yes that's me) is now videoing her fridge and uploading to YouTube. After all how many funny videos of cats doing cute stuff can you watch? Fridge is the new cat. ...

Food Waste Friday / What Shouldn’t Be In My Fridge?

March 20, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

It's #FoodWasteFriday Guys. Food Waste Friday began in 2008 when Kristen aka The Frugal Girl, embarrassed by the amount of food she was wasting, decided to call herself out and blog about her food waste on a Friday. I joined in 2010 and have been hosting alternate weeks for a couple of years now as Kristen kindly invited me to get involved. My spin on ...

Welcome to SimplyBeingMum – one mother’s personal website documenting the journey toward a family life simply done.Here you will find a collection of recipes, ideas, musings and philosophies related to families who feel a pull toward a more conscious, mindful and simpler way of life.

You don’t have to homeschool or bake your own bread daily (I do neither of those things – well actually I do homeschool now we are in lockdown!) to hang out here. At whatever stage of your journey, you are on, you are very welcome. I personally still have a long way left down my own path and find that by blogging about it, it helps to keep me on track.

Please stay a while, have a meander around, see what takes your interest, and do join in the discussion.
