Nutella fudge is something that I've been meaning to make for at least the last two years but I've never actually got round to making it though because there are at least a million Nutella fudge recipes online (me, exaggerate?) and each one of them seems a little different.I've read comments on posts where people have had a disaster with theirs not setting and I've also read comments where it hasn't been Nutella-y enough. Wasting perfectly good Nutella is not something my children would forgive me for so I just never ended up making it.But when I was planning my Christmas … [Read more...]
Oreo Mint Chocolate Cheesecake….
Have you ever gone into the kitchen for something random like a glass of water and ended up baking something because a particular ingredient caught your eye and inspired you?I now you're probably shaking your head right now and thinking how mad I sound but honestly, last week I went to get a glass of water and spotted a pack of Mint Oreos on the counter. I'd bought them thinking the kids would love them but apparently Mint Oreos are 'just weird' and make all the other biscuits in the biscuit tin taste funny!So, I spotted the full pack of rejected Mint Oreos and decided that I'd make a … [Read more...]
Chocolate Banoffee Quesadillas….
A few years ago, for some unknown reason, Mr Frugal bought me a quesadilla maker for Christmas. I can only assume it's because he wasn't happy with the standard of my quesadillas although he swears that he bought it because he thought I'd appreciate the quirkiness of the little Mexican hat covered gadget.It makes life easier when I make quesadillas (about once a month) but aside from that it just gathers dust in the back of the cupboard. So when I was decluttering the kitchen and trying to get rid of any gadgets that are just taking up space (slushie maker anyone?) the poor little … [Read more...]
Homemade delicious and creamy slow cooker rice pudding….
Sometimes, when the skies are grey outside and you're not feeling your best, the best thing for you is some good old fashioned home cooked comfort food and the best comfort food I know is our gorgeous slow cooker rice pudding! Yesterday afternoon was one of those afternoons where comfort food was called for but seeing as I wasn't feeling great, I called on Master Frugal to take over the kitchen and make us a batch.Slow cooker rice pudding really is easy to make yet it tastes so delicious and always makes me feel better. I make it with milk or occasionally if I have some in the house, … [Read more...]
Amazing Chocolate Chip Banana Bread (with optional Nutella Swirls)….
Yesterday was my favourite day for ages as Miss Frugal and I had a girly afternoon in the kitchen together. She made all sorts of Lush inspired goodies and I baked some delicious chocolate chip banana bread which I'm just about to go and serve up to Mr Frugal with a cup of tea since I've got him painting the living room today. I hope he likes it as much as we enjoyed our slices yesterday!This is a great way to use up bananas that are just on the turn and to be honest, it's just as lovely without the chocolate chips and the Nutella so if you don't have them, don't buy them just to make … [Read more...]
Overnight Oats – what’s all the fuss is about?
Overnight Oats is my new favourite breakfast! It's filling, tasty and thanks to the fact that you make it the night before, it's also super quick on a morning when I'm rushing about. I can even pop it into my bag and eat it at work if I'm running late (which I often am). You can even make it Slimming World friendly.Overnight oats are something that I've heard about so many times both from fellow mums who want an easy breakfast option and from friends on Slimming World who swear by them for an easy but filling breakfast.Until a couple of week's ago, I'd never tried them because … [Read more...]
