Bolognese
Bolognese is one of those dishes that everyone knows and probably has their version of it. While traditionally Bolognese is used for dressing pasta, this meaty sauce is a perfect centrepiece to a meal instead of dressing.

A lot has happened in the last year, I took some time out to rediscover what makes me happy and focus on what is important to me. One year on my life is simple, but it is enough for me. I’ve relearned to find pleasure in the small things and put myself first again. Being…
Alternative ingredients
One of the key things missing that I found important when removing ‘standard’ foods from our diets was knowing an alternative I could use. Many of the alternatives I discovered, that were suitable for how we wanted to eat.
Kitchen essentials
I’d like to think that I’ve moved along my cooking learning curve enough to offer some advice around what a good kitchen should have in it.
