Taking the ‘Blue’ from Blue Monday with Tesco Takeaway Pizzas

January 31, 2017January 30, 2017 by Jes

The 16th of January was called Blue Monday. It is officially ‘celebrated’ as being the most depressing day of the year as we say goodbye to Christmas, the New Year and the ability to binge of rich food and treats. It’s also still winter and the days are dreary and cold. We were given an opportunity to ‘celebrate’ Blue Monday and make it a day of fun rather than despair, with Tesco. Besides being sent a lovely hamper of goodies – games and a blanket, to have fun, we were also sent vouchers to try out the all new sharing …

#AsdaSS16 Food Showcase

March 8, 2016 by Jes

Two weeks ago, I was invited to the Asda SS16 food showcase. On entering, I was pleasantly surprised to start the day on steak. Yes, I never knew I would enjoy steak so much at 10 am. It was so deliciously cooked and accompanied by some scrumptious sauces that I could have sat down and had a meal right there. There is a huge range that will be on sale come Spring and summer and I especially look forward to their new ready picnic/barbecue range and the cakes to celebrate the Queen’s birthday. I tasted some of the eclairs with …

April Degustabox Review

May 18, 2015 by Jes

I like experimenting with food and love to try out new products. So, when I was sent a Degustabox to review, I was quite thrilled. If you didn’t know, Degustabox is a monthly food box that contains 9 – 14 products, some of which are new to the market. The subscription is priced at £12.99 including delivery and from what I received in my box, I would say that the contents are well and truly worth much more than this. I received the April box that had an international food theme. Just up my street as I love trying out …

I know we should be eating more fish – it’s so healthy. The benefit of Omega3 and cognitive development make fish important to our diet. We tend to do a fish dish on the weekend and we try out different recipes but I am hoping to incorporate more fish into our diet. The children love salmon and this was something we tried out this week. It was fragrant and succulent and delicious. Here’s what you will need to make Jacinta’s Oriental Baked Salmon 1 kg Salmon fillet 2 stems lemon grass 1 inch ginger julienned 4 garlic cloves finely sliced …

White Chocolate and Blueberry Pancakes :Clarks Pancake Challenge – #MapleVLemon

February 16, 2015 by Jes

Tomorrow is Shrove Tuesday, sometimes better known as Pancake Day. It’s the day before Ash Wednesday (the beginning of Lent) when people ate rich foods before embarking on a season of fasting. We love pancakes in our home and Pancake Day and the run up to it, is the perfect time to indulge in making and eating Pancakes – lots of them. The children never seem to grown tired of eating them and I am happy to oblige and make them as they are ever so easy to make and the ingredients are always readily available in the food cupboard. …
