EASY BAKED GARLIC PARMESAN CHICKEN WINGS

September 30, 2021 No Comments

Hello Everyone,

If you’ve been following my blog for a while now and have seen my recipes, then you already know that I tend to have more chicken recipes than other meats. That’s just because I love chicken and my most favourite will definitely have to be chicken wings. There is just something about eating chicken wings that make me super happy, I can have them plainly roasted, dry-rubbed, sticky, spicy and my recent obsession which are my garlic parmesan chicken wings. They are easy and baked to perfection and finally tossed in some parmesan cheese.

My son also loves chicken wings and as much as he used to make me have to debone them for him, he has now appreciated the satisfaction of eating it on the bone and asks for chicken wings every chance he can get. This recipe is super simple and the outcome doesn’t disappoint, with some small prepping time and the oven at your service, then you will love this recipe. You will need;

Hello Everyone,

Am I the only one who thinks puff pastry is God sent? I honestly don’t even know how I never used it before but thankfully all that has changed. Once I discovered store-bought puff pastry, there is no holding me back, I think my family is fed up with all the sausage rolls they keep finding me making but no complaint has been filed yet. Talking about puff pastry, how do some puff pastry creamy chicken and vegetable hand pies sound? Well, you don’t even have to answer that because I have the perfect recipe for you. Perfect for lunch, dinner, picnics, snacks you name it. They are delicious and with the help of some store-bought puff pastry, half of the work is done for you. For this recipe you will need;

HEALTHY OATMEAL PANCAKES

September 27, 2021 No Comments

If you’re a breakfast person and are looking for a go-to filling breakfast, then these healthy oatmeal pancakes are the ones for you. How are you all doing by the way? I hope all is well and are still staying safe, today I am back with a breakfast recipe for you. I first made them when I told myself I was on a diet for like the millionth time and needed breakfast to keep me going for longer and handle my hunger during workouts.

The best part about these is that they are fun to make and if you have little ones who can help you, then they will love these. Not your typical shape since as much as you try to form a perfect circle, they go their own direction and as my mum said “butterfly pancakes” but the taste is worth it. Also once you make the mixture, you will think that it’s either too runny but don’t worry they turn out great. For this recipe, you will need;

EASY ROASTED TOMATO SOUP RECIPE

September 24, 2021 No Comments

There is just something about warm, comforting soups that does it for me, especially in the chilly evenings. One of my favourites and most loved soups would have to be my easy roasted tomato soup recipe. Roasting them instead of boiling them just makes a great difference and you retain most of the flavour. If you haven’t tried this version before, then no worries because I am going to share with you my recipe and I know if you’re a soup lover, then ready up the garlic bread because this one is for you. Unlike my butternut squash soup, this one tends to be a lot simpler but very delicious at the same time. Lightly spiced, and all you need is your oven and an immersion blender to do all the work for you. For this recipe, you will need;

ONE POT SAUSAGE AND PASTA RECIPE

September 23, 2021 No Comments

Busy evenings, who doesn’t love them, right? Anyway just joking. If you’re like me and tend to end up rustling up dinner while still thinking of how many million things you still have to do before the day ends, then this one-pot sausage and pasta recipe is one to have on hand. All in one pot, no need of cooking the pasta beforehand and packs a punch when it comes to great flavour. Depending on what kind of sausage you like using, you can pick your favourite but if you can find kielbasa, then I suggest you use that. The last addition of cheese brings this dish altogether and adds a creamy texture that will not disappoint. For this recipe, you will need;

April 8, 2021 140 Comments

Hello There,

Happy end of the week everybody, I hope that you are all having a great one. Today, I have another post for you and it’s all in the name of blogging. We all know how to start a blog, getting blog post ideas, writing posts and even the promotion of blog posts. Now, let’s go back a bit and go through the basics of whether or not you are doing things right or just hoping for the best when starting your blog or thinking about it. If you’re already blogging for a while then this is not for you, but if you’re still dreading to push the publish button or are yet to even have a domain, then I suggest you go through some of these points. Here are some tips on what not to do when you are starting your blog in my opinion.

MY SKINCARE ROUTINE UPDATED VERSION

April 7, 2021 26 Comments

Let’s talk skincare,

It took me a while to figure out what my skin really needs, and had to learn how to keep up with it during changing seasons and hormonal breakouts. I started researching more about Korean skincare, and the number of steps it takes for daytime and night-time routines were too much for me. After trying it for a while I noticed that I needed to reduce some of the products since my skin was taking none of that layering system, so I decided to create my own spin on Korean skincare with the number of products my skin can take. If you read my post on the best tips for sensitive skin, then you now know that my skin has become super sensitive and I have to be very careful when I choose products to apply to my skin and body too. This is my skincare routine updated version.

I also know that with this pandemic, self-care is important so before we are released to the world without restrictions, I decided to just share what has been working for me and if you need some ideas for some products. Also, it’s been a long time coming for me to actually stick to a routine that works and hasn’t caused me major skin problems hence the no photo sessions in most of my posts. Hoping to change that soon since my camera roll is empty.

OVEN-BAKED HONEY SOY CHICKEN

February 17, 2021 50 Comments

Hello Lovely People,

I hope you are all doing great and having a great week so far, another week calls for another recipe and let me just tell you this one is a keeper. A delicious oven-baked honey soy chicken recipe is what I have for you today, now I just have to confess that I have tried similar chicken recipes before but always ended up with blackened meat and not well cooked inside. After many trial and errors, I found the right way to cook these and they turned out perfect. I did end up marinating my chicken for 3 hours but I do know there are times when you just don’t have all that time, so I would suggest a minimum of 30 minutes when it comes to marinating and it will still hold on to the flavours and turn out great. All you’ll need;
