I love crêpe pancakes! They are one of my favourite treats that I can enjoy guilt-free. I love just throwing ingredients together and seeing what happens and this recipe was exactly that, throwing together these ingredients made such a lovely and healthy crêpe for the whole family to enjoy.

Lahmacun is a round shaped flatbread-style pizza with spicy lamb or beef mince which is a traditional meal enjoyed in Turkey, North Cyprus and Turkish communities around the world, served with fresh lemon and salad which is rolled up and enjoyed.
I love burgers and if it is a healthy burger then even better! I love making homemade burgers, like I have said before on my post Quick & Easy Beef Burgers, I prefer homemade burgers to shop bought ones as I know what I am adding into the mixture.
This Turkish dish is similar to the one that I would eat when I was a young child and before I made this I hadn't eaten it for many years. So in true Turkish style I threw in all the ingredients I thought would make up the recipe and voila! it was pretty damn close and tasted so scrumptious.
I really do enjoy a nice warm vegetable soup for lunch during the colder months. Making your own soup gives you the freedom to use whatever ingredients you want and it doesn't have to take hours to cook. Two of my favourite vegetables are courgettes and peppers so I thought I would make a yummy afternoon soup for me and the kids using some of the left over vegetables in the fridge.
For February's first post I have decided to share my top tips for living a 'healthy lifestyle'. A lot of my friends ask me how I do it, I eat healthy all the time, I exercise at least twice a week and have an active social life with my family.
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.
Broccoli and Cauliflower Cheese has always been a favourite of mine especially when I was a child. My Mum would make this as a side dish either along side one of her amazing roasts or fish dishes. It is also a great dish to create for a weaning baby because it is full of the goodness from the vegetables and the calcium from the milk and cheese. You can make a big batch of this dish and reheat the next day or even freeze for another day as well as placing it into small pots for your baby.
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.
I'm one of these people that don't believe in diets and skipping meals. I love food, I really do! If I don't eat for a few hours I actually get "hangry" (a combination of hungry and angry, if you have never come across this type of person before). On a serious note, the best way to keep healthy and fit is to make sure you eat 3 main meals a day and 'healthy snacks' in between. It is also important to eat the right types of food for your body depending on how much and when you exercise. For me I eat a lot of protein, this gives me plenty of energy to get me through the day as well as helping me get my body back to pre-pregnancy shape. Good protein in your diet is great for reducing tummy fat and helps with skin stretching back to normal.
This recipe is a great filling lunch for one, full of good fats and protein, perfect for a post-work out meal. I will be honest; this concoction came together by pure fluke with left over ingredients left in the fridge and resulted in this wonderfully enjoyable meal one afternoon.
Time literally got away from me the last few weeks and its been a whole month since I last blogged, I have been super busy with my babies and family things. This month beautybakingbella is back with new regular posts.
Here is a lovely dish that I threw together a few weeks ago and absolutely loved and was a winner with the whole family. It is so quick and easy to make and even my 9 month old loved it.
Here is a quick and easy recipe that is a great source of protein, great for a post work out meal and a great one for meal prep for the next day or for later, as you can freeze it too. In my house we love chicken but it is nice when we change things up a bit and use beef, lamb or even turkey. This is a yummy beef recipe that can be cooked to how ever you like your steak cooked and it really is so easy to make.
I love chicken! Chicken is my favourite meat and in my house we have it at least two to three times a week. Its such a good source of protein and if cooked in a healthy way a great compliment to your daily veggies and salads. This recipe is great for a light and healthy but filling meal perfect after a busy day or as a post-gym meal and its a winner with the kids!
When I make a paella I always seem to have some chorizo left over and late one Sunday morning I decided to use it to make a Spanish Style Brunch.
The summer weather can make planning dinner a little difficult when you have less of an appetite and the kids are too busy playing in the garden to stop for food. So I threw together a quick and easy dinner for the whole family, keeping it healthy and nutritious and would be perfect meal prep for lunch as well as dinner the next day. Here is my recipe for a lovely and healthy summer pasta salad..
I love experimenting with food, if I go somewhere and taste something I love I will come home and try and recreate my own version. I love cooking up new recipes and trying to change things up a bit but sometimes its nice to keep things nice and simple.
I absolutely love chocolate, it is actually the only sweet thing I like to eat as I do prefer more savoury snacks, although brownies are my favourite!
This is actually the first time I have ever made brownies and when I was browsing for a recipe I just couldn't find one where I was happy with all the ingredients used. I decided to try my own recipe and threw a load of ingredients I had and was happy using together and voilà.. they were very yummy and a hit with both my husband and daughter so the recipe is now in my personal cook book.
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.
