They say taste is composed of more aspects than just the flavour of the food:
This recipe is a lovely version of oatmeal and milk that happens to be dairy free, gluten-free and grain free. It is a perfect hot breakfast for anyone unable to eat traditional oats or just looking for a change.
For even more punch, I’ve added some powerhouse toppings which are both visually appealing and delicious for the tummy! Continue reading
With the temperatures beginning to drop, I find myself remembering how wonderful a hot bowl of soup can be. Delicious root vegetables and warming spices combine into a delectable autumn meal that definitely get my taste buds roaring!
Whether it be pumpkin, squash or apples, I can’t wait to get in the kitchen and cook them up!
A great soup needn’t be complex! Some of my favourite homemade soups are very simple to make. Who doesn’t love simple?
