27 years together. 21 years married. 2 children later… and still going on dates ❤️ Somewhere between nappies, sleepless nights, school runs, teenage years and the beautiful chaos of raising a family, we became Mum and Dad. But before we were parents, we were two people who chose each other and now the children are all grown up, we have more time just the 2 of us together. The @The White Horse proved to be the perfect date night location: delicious food and wine, exceptional service and a gorgeous setting … what more could we have asked for? And with the festive season on the horizon, I’m definitely going to suggest a Christmas night out there with friends - the festive menu looks amazing 🤩 #gifted - thank you 🙏🏼 #mumlifeuk #mumanddad #parentsnightout

My daughter has gone back to university early for lacrosse pre-season so, next weekend, we are going to see her and her new house and, in true me style, I’ll be taking some goodies for her freezer including these apple pies 🥧 A true taste of home as the apples were from our garden …. and, as my darling girl helped pick them, it seemed only fair that she got to eat them! I am privileged to bs able to cook for her and, judging my the messages I received, lots of you agree 🫶🏻 #batchcooking #freezermeals #cookingforthefamily

Pizza without the carbs 🍕 I combined 500g of turkey mince with 2 eggs, salt, pepper and some oregano and then split into four balls. I flattened each one out on greaseproof paper to melt my pizza bases and I cooked at 180 degrees for 8 minutes. I then flipped the bases over and cooked for another 8 minutes on the other side. Next I added my toppings and popped back in the oven for about 12 minutes. Make sure you click save and add to your recipe collection … you are definitely going to want to make this one! #turkeypizza #highproteinlowcarb #easydinnerideas

I’m ignoring the haters and cooking meals for my daughter to take back to uni with her! And, before you shout, she can cook but food is my love language and sometimes, when you are away, you just want a little taste of home 🫶🏻 #freezermeals #studentcooking #familyfood

Here’s to never running out of cake 🧁 For this recipe, I added 1 mashed banana, 2 diced apples and dark chocolate chips to the basic mixture 👇🏻 🍰 Makes two 8 inch cakes; twelve cakes or two small loaf cakes 🍰 🥚 4 eggs (broken weight about 200 - 210g ) 🥄 Same weight in Self raising Flour 🍬 Same weight in Caster Sugar 🧈 Same weight in Butter 🥄 2 level Teaspoons of baking powder 💧 3 Tablespoons of hand hot water (6 dessert spoons) The secret is to have the same weight in butter and sugar as the eggs. 1. Set oven to 170C - shelf in middle 2. Break 4 eggs into a bowl and weigh (about 200 - 210 g) 3. Add same weight of butter, caster sugar and flour to eggs (keep flour on top) 4. Add 2 teaspoons of baking powder on top of flour 5. Cover baking powder with 3 tablespoons of HAND HOT water (not cold or luke warm) and let it fizz for a couple of seconds 6. Use a mixer to mix everything together. Mix for a few minutes until very smooth and creamy 7. Divide between two 8” tins and bake in centre of oven at 170C until golden brown (about 20-25 minutes) 8. Check after 20 minutes with sharp knife which should come out clean #cakerecipe #easycakerecipe #easybake

130 degrees - 9 minutes for soft, 11 minutes for jemmy and 13 minutes for hard boiled 🥚

Combine 125ml white wine or apple cider vinegar, 125ml water, 2 tsp caster sugar, and 1 tsp salt. Heat until dissolved and then add 1 tbsp sesame seeds. You can also add crushed chillis is you like a little heat 🌶️ Slow to cool slightly before pouring over sliced vegetables and pop in the fridge before 24 hours 🥒 #pickledcucumber #homenadepickles #pickling

AD/PR: 💪🏻 Two slices = 15g protein. When your sandwich starts pulling its weight 👀🥪 I’m definitely at the stage of life when I need my food to work a little harder for me. So I gave @kingsmillbakery Mighty White Protein Bread a try. It’s soft, it tastes like proper white bread, and 2 slices give you 15g of protein. 🙌🏻 Basically, the easiest kind of upgrade - just swap out your usual bread and carry on with your day. No food rules. No complicated recipes. Just a really good sandwich that works a little harder. 🤍 #HighProteinSandwich #EasyProteinLunch #EasyLunchIdeas
