I love cake like there is no tomorrow. I was randomly watching facebook food videos when I came across the video to make this recipe. I didn’t pay attention to the ingredients when I was watching the video, but I knew in my mind that I really really wanted to try it. Then I actually … Continue reading Royal Walnut cake
Yoghurt pancakes
Who doesn’t love a nice and fluffy flapjack??? I do. Sometimes the flapjack tastes more like baking powder than anything else… but this simple, easy and quick recipe is tops. The flapjacks are light and fluffy and they just melt in your mouth. I opted to use a ¼ x cup measure to pour the … Continue reading Yoghurt pancakes
Breakfast quesadillas
I have never heard about this ever before until I was watching The Pioneer Women and then I forgot about it until I read about it again in Ree’s cook book.

The Pioneer women’s waffles
I am a huge waffle fan, but the time to find time to drag out the waffle maker and whip up a batter is soo time consuming. I buy store bought waffles now and then, but it tastes like cardboard. So I was flipping through the pages of Ree’s cookbook and I came across this … Continue reading The Pioneer women’s waffles

Then … Continue reading Escalloped cabbage

From as long as I can remember my mum has always told me that I should … Continue reading Eggless quiche
Savory pie crust
I have never ever made pie crust before… if a recipe asks for pie crust, then I tend to avoid the recipe or I use puff pastry and just poke holes in the base and hope that it doesn’t puff up too much during the baking process. I tried making pie crust once, I won’t … Continue reading Savory pie crust
Angel food cake
I have been hearing angel food cake every which way I go and whenever I turn on the television they are always showing how it is made. If that wasn’t a sign, I should at least attempt to make it, then I am not sure what is. In order to make this cake, I needed … Continue reading Angel food cake
Yorkshire pudding
So the other night, I was watching Mary Berry’s on BBC Lifestyle and she was making Yorkshire pudding. I have heard and seen that name so many times, that I convinced myself it was part of a pudding. I saw it being made on The Great British Bake off, and they made it seem so … Continue reading Yorkshire pudding
