Making Healthy Cooking a Delight

This site is all about cooking with whole, natural foods. With modern lifestyles, most of us struggle to set aside time in our busy schedules to prepare, and cook meals. Trying to balance our busy lifestyles and maintain a healthy diet can often be seen as a challenge. Through this blog, I hope, I may take beginners on a journey where not only will you begin to cook but will grow more confident and be able to change the recipes to suit your taste buds. 

With the recent rise of ready-made meals, it is often too tempting to open the freezer to see what we can heat in the microwave as opposed to starting from scratch. Once you start cooking you will be reluctant to buy these meals as home cooking tastes so much better. It’s fresh, you know exactly what’s in your recipe and you can control the amount of salt, sugar etc. that goes into them. There is no need for preservatives and your meals have not been prepared weeks or months in advanced. You will truly see the difference. I have come to realise it is not the cooking that most people find challenging but the thought of what to cook for yourself or your family is overwhelming, especially if you have fussy eaters and if you have family responsibilities, after school commitments etc. it is always easier to go for the easy option. I aim to show you that you can still enjoy a delicious and healthy diet without having to spend hours in the kitchen. 

 Organising your week ahead of time, you can be more in control and not feel overwhelmed. Click here, to see examples of how to plan, your meals. The recipes on my site range from beginner to intermediate levels, and are mostly based on recipes, from my mother, mother-in-law and grandmothers I have also added my twist on some of these recipes. 

Through my blog, I aim to share these recipes so you can experience the same enjoyment and satisfaction from cooking at home. I’ve also found inspiration from recipes I’ve caught on TV or eaten in restaurants and added my own twist to it. I can never follow a recipe and always end up adding ingredients or omitting them depending on what’s in my fridge. 

So, grab some herbs and spices and join me on this adventure as I aim to show you the simple way to create traditional and modern dishes. And as always happy cooking!
