BLACKBEAN VEGETARIAN BURGERS

December 5, 2018 36 Comments

Hello Everyone,

Happy new month everybody, December is here and I am yet to find where my tree is and when to start all the decorating. Meanwhile, my son has decided to stop eating meat and be a vegetarian, so what does that call for? More recipes and cooking involved which is all good since I do love trying out recipes. This past weekend I decided to make some blackbean vegetarian burgers for him to try out and it was a success. He claims not to like beans but he didn’t even notice that he was having them. If you missed my juicy oven baked turkey burgers post and video do check it out here, and do subscribe to my channel. Here is the recipe for them.

EASY VEGETABLE FRIED RICE

October 4, 2018 38 Comments

Hi There,

As a busy mum, I try to figure out what is the quickest and fastest meal I can be able to prepare and still make time for my almost 6 month old and 5 year old. Now, I don’t really make fast meals everyday but there are days when I literally can’t think of anything else to cook without it having too many steps. So when that time comes, my easy vegetable fried rice hits the spot and is ready in minutes compared to my beef pilau recipe or the salmon fish cakes. Also my son really loves it and always eats it with a side of oven baked salmon which will come next on the blog later on. Today, we will be focusing on the fried rice part. So, you will need:

Gosh,

It really has been a long time since my last post. How are you all doing? I should be apologising for not been around but I won’t even lie, it has really been awful, I am dealing with the 4 month sleep regression which is totally driving me nuts, on the positive side, this is my 100th post. Never did I ever think that I would end up with 100 posts someday but here we are and I am very proud of myself, it just seems like yesterday when I was busy trying to think of blog post ideas and what to write about in my first post and whether anybody would even want to read it, so thank you everyone for all the support and stopping by and I would like to celebrate it by sharing with you this easy orange glazed & sticky oven baked chicken wings recipe.

ONE BOWL APPLE CAKE (Pinterest try)

June 19, 2018 27 Comments

Hiya,

I hope your all having a lovely day today and are ready for a great week. I have always wanted to do a post like this where I get a recipe from Pinterest that I like, give it a try and show you guys how it turned out instead of just pinning it and never getting a chance to make it. Also I am planning on making it a thing on here whereby I get to try recipes on Pinterest weekly. During the weekend, I bought some apples thinking that my son would snack on them but sadly, that never happened. That’s why this one bowl apple cake (Pinterest try) was the perfect recipe for me.

NOTE: I have made this recipe twice already and I loved it only this time I changed two things, the temperature, the number of eggs and my baking dish is rectangular. That’s it.

Hello Everyone,

So Christmas is upon us and as much as I’d like to say I’ve done everything, there are still some last minute stuff to do plus I haven’t even wrapped presents since I have to find a way to hide them, without the little one thinking that it’s time open them already. Anyway I’ll think about that later this week but before I let you all go off and enjoy your Christmas celebrations, I decided to come on here and share with you a recipe I know you would really love and if you need something to make last minute, these gingerbread cupcakes are just the thing.
