Here I’ll share some tips and tricks to making the most delicious BLT Hot Dogs!
Whilst this might seem like some sort of a novelty recipe, I promise it’s incredibly delicious! Follow me…
Bacon Wrapped Hot Dogs
Hot dogs are great, but hot dogs wrapped in bacon are superior in every way. The crispy bacon with the soft and juicy filling? It’s too good. Think of it like a giant pig in a blanket!
What kind of hot dogs should I use?
I tested a few different hot dogs and found the firmer vacuum-packed ones work best. Raw hot dog style sausages also work well too. I found the thin soft jarred ones ha ..read more

This spicy salmon pasta is creamy, fiery, rich and absolutely delicious!
This is one of those recipes that really does tick all the boxes. Thankfully it’s really simple to make as well! Follow me…
Pan-Fried Salmon
Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel that salmon + pasta is an under-appreciated combination. Salmon excels in many different dishes, but nestling it’s way into a rich, creamy pasta has got to be one of the most delicious ways to serve it!
What kind of salmon should I use?
We’ll be using a couple of boneless skinless fillets. If your salmon has the skin on you’ll want to remove it before you ..read more

Chicken breast coated in a creamy, tangy and delicious coconut and lime sauce!
Coconut and lime is such an under-represented flavour combination. It’s one of my favourites though, especially in this context. Follow me…
Pan-Fried Chicken Breast
We’ll talk about the sauce in just a sec, but first let’s quickly go over what’s going down with the chicken. When it comes to preparation, you’ll simply want to slice and season it. Slicing the chicken breasts will create 4 even-sized breasts, which in turn will cook quicker and more evenly. When seasoning the chicken I like to add in flour. This will ..read more

This creamy sausage and mushroom pasta is so delicious and truly couldn’t be easier to make!
You really can’t beat a one pot pasta, especially for a quick weeknight dinner. This one comes together with such ease and tastes absolutely delicious! Follow me…
Sausage and Mushroom Pasta
I feel like sausage and mushroom is a combination that often goes under the radar. Which is a shame, because it really is a match made in heaven.
Frying the mushrooms
We’ll start by frying the mushrooms then removing them from the pan, in order to make room for the sausage. When frying the mushrooms, it’s important ..read more

Juicy seasoned chicken thighs in a rich and creamy chorizo sauce!
If you’ve been around here for a little while, you’ll know chicken and chorizo is one of my all-time favourite combos. Today we’re celebrating it in the form of a one-pan wonder! Follow me…
Chicken Thighs
For this recipe we’ll be using boneless skinless chicken thighs. I love using chicken thighs in this recipe because they add so much flavour to the sauce! They’re fattier than breasts, so when you fry them they leave behind a gorgeous pool of fat (aka flavour). This is perfect to incorporate into a sauce.
The sauce is packed w ..read more

Here I’ll show you how to make the crispiest and juiciest bang bang shrimp!
Bang bang shrimp is typically served as an appetiser, but I’m here today to show it can be the main event! This dish originates across the pond, so I’m respecting the original name of ‘shrimp’. But for my fellow Brits, we are most certainly using prawns! I’ll probably use them interchangeably throughout the post, but they both mean the same thing ? Follow me…
Bang Bang Sauce
The sauce honestly couldn’t be any easier if it tried. It’s just mayonnaise, Thai sweet chilli sauce and Sriracha. I think you’ll be surprised at ..read more

Here I’ll show you how to use tortilla wraps to create the most delicious pizza imaginable!
If you told me 10 years ago that I’d be creating pizzas out of tortilla wraps for a living, I’d have been too confused to even laugh. But here we are ? Follow me…
Tortilla Wrap Hack
Like most trends on the internet, I’m usually a year or two late to try it. There’s only a handful that have grabbed my attention over the years and this is definitely one of them. Because if you’ve been here for a while, you know I’m mildly obsessed with tortilla wraps ?
What is the viral tortilla wrap hack?
It’s essential ..read more

Crispy chicken breasts topped with creamy feta then drenched in hot honey – this dinner is truly irresistible!
This recipe is such a gorgeous combination of flavours. Spicy, salty, sweet and savoury – plus you get the contrast in textures of the creamy feta, sticky honey and crispy chicken. You’re going to love it! Follow me…
Hot Honey Chicken
I’ve been pretty late to the hot honey train, but I can say with my full chest that I’m absolutely on board. The sweet/spicy combo is almost too much to bear! Plus, you can drizzle it over just about everything. Today’s victim – feta chicken (which we’l ..read more

Here I’ll show you the most delicious way to make the classic Chicken Chow Mein!
Quick dinners don’t come more delicious than this. It’s one of the few takeaways that actually takes less time to make than order! If you haven’t made it at home before you’ve got to give it a go. Follow me…
Chicken Chow Mein
I like using chicken thigh as it’s more fatty and flavoursome than breast. You’ll want to thinly slice the meat, just so it’s more evenly distributed throughout the noodles, as opposed to big chunks here and there.
Chicken Chow Mein Marinade
Whilst you prep the veg and sauce, you’ll want to ..read more

This tortellini is cooked in a rich and spicy sausage sauce which all comes together in one pot!
For how hearty and delicious this recipe is, I think you’ll be shocked at just how easily it comes together. Follow me…
Sausage Tortellini
When I say ‘sausage tortellini’ I’m referring to the sauce that the tortellini is cooked in, not the filling. We’ll be using a cheese filling, which we’ll get to in just a sec!
What kind of sausage should I use?
We don’t have the widest selection of minced/ground sausage meat in the UK, so I typically use the meat from inside a pack of sausages. I typically go ..read more
