Together to Eat - Family Meals These Overnight Oats with sweet banana and crisp apple are the perfect balance between refreshing and comforting, which is why I personally love to eat it through the warmer months of the year. To help us start off the day in the best possible way, I also love to pack these overnight oats with protein, nutritious seeds and other flavours like vanilla essence and cinnamon. As well as the chai and flax seeds you can add in, the peanut butter is going to give more added protein. It really goes so well with the apple and of course banana. If you’ve ever had peanut b ..read more

Together to Eat - Family Meals This Air Fryer Pork Souvlaki is delicious, speedy and super family friendly. It’s actually a bit of a cheat recipe, and that’s because it includes a few shortcuts to really keep the time from start to serve right down at just 15 minutes.  Those shortcuts are: You don’t HAVE to marinade the pork. If you don’t have time earlier in the day, you can just stir the marinade ingredients through the pork right before you cook it and it will still have great flavour. We aren’t using skewers! This really helps keep prep and cook times right down.  Of course we a ..read more

Together to Eat - Family Meals These healthy, Easy Easter Cookies require no baking skill to make and are great for little hands to help with and eat! In true bird’s nest style, the cookies are topped with an Easter favourite, Mini Eggs. But there’s a difference between these and most recipes out there, as these are a healthy option as they made with bananas, oats and Nutella. There’s no other added sugar or fats and they are also egg-free. You can even eat them for breakfast! And for very little ones, you can even pop on non-edible little Easter chick decorations on instead of Mini Eggs, see ..read more

Together to Eat - Family Meals This Slow Cooker Mince Pasta Bake is a new family favourite, firmly grabbing a spot in our regular meal rotation! It has a tomato and beef mince sauce, which once cooked, has cream cheese stirred through, taking the edge off the tomato tang and making the sauce a little creamy.  You’ll also stir through your cooked pasta and then top with a generous layer of grated cheddar, recover and leave for 5-10 minutes until gorgeously melted. Delicious! One reason I personally love to make this meal is because it takes just 5 minutes to prep, a quick 5 minutes to bro ..read more

Together to Eat - Family Meals Ready in just 15 minutes, you can make this Halloumi Bake with ease in the air fryer. Simply halloumi, bell peppers and onion, tossed in ketchup and a little harissa paste and served with a harissa lime yogurt sauce. It’s mild enough for the littlest family members to enjoy, but if you want more spice, no problem, just add in more harissa - I’ll recommend how much. If you have an air fryer with two drawers you can even make two versions, a mild one for the kids and a spicer batch for the adults.  The spice level can be adjusted for your family. If you have ..read more

Together to Eat - Family Meals Perfect for weeknights, this Red Pesto Chicken Pasta can be on the table in just 25 minutes. Seasoning the chicken with mixed herbs and smoked paprika before pan frying will give it maximum flavour. For the pasta, we’ll add shop-bought sun-dried tomato pasta for speed and ease. To make it creamy we’ll add marscapone, and balsamic vinegar for a little acidic sweetness. Then we’ll finish it off with some chopped fresh basil. You can also stir through a couple of handfuls of spinach too, otherwise, it’s delicious paired with just a simple salad. If you have a toddl ..read more

Together to Eat - Family Meals Everyone absolutely loves this Slow Cooker Banana Pudding, so I have been making it on repeat recently. Essentially a banana bread made in the slow cooker, it achieves pudding status with the addition of caramel. We’ll top the batter with a thick layer of shop bought caramel which while cooking, will sink down, creating a gorgeous layer in the middle. And bonus, it takes just 10 minutes to prep! This pudding is great if you have guests over or have a large family, but even if you don’t, the leftovers reheat beautifully in the microwave, so we often eat it over a ..read more

Together to Eat - Family Meals This chunky Sausage and Tomato Soup is everything you need it to be; full of flavour, hearty and comforting. Using broken up sausages or a block of sausage meat, tinned chopped tomatoes, diced potato, white beans and spinach, it’s definitely not a soup you need a ton of bread with. I’ve gone for Mediterranean vibes with the seasonings, adding in sweet smoked paprika and oregano, making the broth smoky and earthy. If you have a toddler, weaning baby or fussy eater and are wondering how to adapt this recipe for your family, see here > Making my Sausage and Toma ..read more
