    So this week I’ve made: Meal 1: Roast Chicken (also the shopping list is in this post) Meal 2: Chicken Broth Now it’s time for Meal 3. Again it’s a simple, filling and uncomplicated meal on a budget. I raided my fresh sage in the front garden to pop on top of this roasted squash with chicken and spaghetti meal. It really added to the flavour. This is a big comforting bowl of food. Just the kind of thing on a day like today.

    Take 1 Chicken, Meal 1 of 3

    22/06/2014 /

    I have this thing about roast chicken. Maybe it’s something from my childhood but the smell of a roasting chicken in the oven makes me feel like a Bisto kid when I walk into a house. It’s the ultimate Sunday roast for me, and I normally cook it once or twice a fortnight. Most people don’t realise how frugal a roast chicken can be, maybe because they throw away the carcass after the main event (the roast dinner) or perhaps because they just see the initial cost of buying a chicken. Have you figured out that if you’re careful a roast chook will last for 3 meals? You can expect…

    BBQ Marmite Chicken Wings

    27/04/2013 /

    When I was gifted a jar of Marmite this week I was a little unsure what to make with it. Thankfully these BBQ Marmite Chicken Wings are the perfect way to use up the sticky brown stuff. Mam was at her most practical this week and arrived down with a bag full of tins and jars that she knew I’d be using for my recipes over the next couple of months. To cap that she also brought me a fresh bouquet (garni) crammed full of bay leaves and rosemary that she’d picked from her own herb garden. So thoughtful! As she was leaving I spotted a familiar and distinctive yellow…

    Slimming Summer Broth

    26/06/2012 /

    This time of the year I normally eat plenty of salads but this is a wholesome slimming summer broth which is lovely either hot or chilled. It is gluten, dairy and virtually low fat along with being low GI. This broth is also made with seasonal vegetables from the garden along with being low salt!

    Jubilee Leftover Lunch

    03/06/2012 /

    This is a basic coronation chicken recipe which I use for my leftover roast chicken, particularly if I’ve made a roast on a Sunday. You can tweak the fillings to the tastes that your children have and I prefer it on crackers but it’s perfect in wraps, sandwiches, pitta breads and on its own. It seems appropriate to use it today, on the jubilee as it’s based upon the original Coronation Chicken Recipe! However it’s doubly the right time to use it as the Easy Food Home-Cook Hero Awards were launched for 2012 within the past week.  I was one of the finalists in the Lunchbox Challenge section last year…
