Meal Plan Challenge – Oven Baked Risotto….
I made my own version of oven baked risotto last night and it was gorgeous - a big success! I've never made risotto before and I didn't fancy having to constantly stir the pan so I opted for an oven baked version, much more my style.First of all, I fried some diced chicken breast with some onion and garlic, then added it to a large casserole dish along with 250g Arborio rice and 1 and a half pints of chicken stock. I'm a bit clueless with herbs so I just added some Oregano. You're supposed to add parmasen cheese at some point but I'm not really keen so I … [Read more...]

The Gallery….
Tara over at Sticky Fingers has come up with a fantastic idea to encourage us budding photographers. Every week she will post a prompt to inspire a photograph and we can then share our photos with each other.

In the end I decided to go with the two most beautiful people in my life - my children:I am so proud of them both, they are kind and … [Read more...]

Meal Plan Challenge – Cheats Chicken Pie….
I made Cheats Chicken Pie for tea tonight and it was delicious. I had really good intentions of making the tastiest home made chicken pie ever - I was even going to make the pastry from scratch. I got to Tescos to buy the lard for the pastry and they had that readymade puff pastry stuff for just 81p.... It was practically the same price as making my own so I decided that I would cheat just a little bit.Then when I got home I realised I had forgotton to take the chicken out of the freezer so rather than abandon the chicken pie plan, I decided to use the two tins of … [Read more...]
