Food & Lifestyle


These Philadelphia Stuffed Peppers are a great dish to serve on its on or as a side to a chicken dish. The cooking time is a little long but the preparation time is quick and easy. My mum used to make these and now I make them for my children. This is a quick and healthy dish for all the family to enjoy together.

This meal is a perfect winter dish for the whole family which is really easy to make. This is also a good dish to make and freeze for a later date or great to reheat any left overs for lunch or dinner the next day. 

I love burgers but I hate getting the frozen ones or ready made ones as they are alway so fatty and you can never be too sure what kind of meat has been used. So I decided to make some beef burgers for the family using all fresh ingredients, adjusting my recipe for Turkish köftes, I made a simple and easy to do beef burger recipe. This is so quick and easy to make when you haven't got a lot of time to make dinner, I have used this recipe a few times and it has always been a hit with my family.

Chicken and mushroom pie is my all time favourite pie but I have a confession, I have never had a traditional English Pie, Mash and Liquor.. it is on my list of things to do! But for the time being a homemade pie is my next best thing, I'm not a fan of buying the shop made pies as you can never be sure what type of meat has been used or have control on the amount of salt used. This recipe is so easy to follow and using puff pastry instead of short crust makes it quicker and easier to make. 



I've mentioned before how much we love chicken in our house and this was the same growing up. My  Nene and Mum would always use chicken in all their cooking, whether it was chicken wings to create a broth for homemade soups or roasted chicken of some sort. This recipe is one that reminds me of my childhood, Roasted Chicken Thighs, Turkish Cypriot style! This recipe is so easy to make and you can just leave it to cook in the oven for hours and it makes the house smell so delicious. If you like more red meat in your diet this recipe can be used with Lamb Necks, which is another dish my Mum would make.

Sometimes it can be hard to eat healthy but one thing I always say is just to mix what healthy food you love together. This meal was literally thrown together for a quick and tasty dinner for me and the family and the ingredients are so simple and a healthy choice for a healthy meal...

This chicken and pepper pasta recipe is a good recipe for prepping and great reheated for lunch the next day (I usually do this for Hubby for his lunch the next day).  Here is my recipe for this quick and yummy dinner...

There is just something about meatballs that makes such a yummy dinner for the kiddies and us grown ups. This is another of my daughters favourites, if she could she would eat this meal every day! 

Here is my simple and quick recipe for the perfect spaghetti and meatballs full of flavour, great for the whole family.
