Simple and tasty and perfect for the in-between weather, this recipe began as a throw together fridge and pantry dinner, that turned out deliciously and has stuck around. I’m not sure how ‘Tuscan’ it really is… but it’s quick to pull together and most of the ingredients are staples. A crowd-pleaser, full of flavour and even better the next day. But nobody said anything about sharing the leftovers...

We are big fans of rhubarb in our house and this cake is so quick to pull together and a great one to take to a friend’s house. It’s gluten free and can also be made with raspberries or blueberries. It is a moist cake so just be careful when transporting.

I’ve had this recipe for so long I can’t remember where it came from. I do remember the first time I made it though – I was sceptical, as I have never been a huge fan of soups, so I am always just a little bit more in love with the Italians for creating this fake soup! Minestrone, in it’s chunkiness, is the exception to my household’s ‘no soup for you’ rule. Filled with veg and mucho flavour, it’s taken on somewhat of a cult status! And I personally take it as a challenge to find the cutest soup pasta shapes to keep in the cupboard especially for Minestrone!

Nothing beats a classic and jam drops are just that. Classic and unbeatable. Grab a jar of jam and whip these up for a tasty afternoon tea treat.

These Big Mac Tacos took the interwebs by storm a few months ago. I gave in to the viral sensation. Any chance to use a pickle and I’m there! Also, my husband is a die-hard Big Mac fan. Not only do our Bread & Butter Cucumbers feature on top, but I also managed to squeeze them in to the sauce! I posted a reel of my efforts. A few days later my friend sent me a photo of their dinner, using TDT Cukes! Can you call yourself an influencer if you influenced one person to try something…?! Seriously though, you should try these!

I have an abundant rainbow chard plant in my garden. It lives on neglect. And thrives! Every few weeks, I hack at it and make something for dinner - gozleme, spanakopita, these spinach & feta parcels! Best served with a BIG DOLLOP of Tomato Relish!

… or Mum’s Fried Chicken as it’s now known in our house! This is a surprisingly quick and easy dinner that the whole fam will love. Trust me!

The thing I love about these nachos is that they’re colourful and packed full of flavour. It just feels fun! Best served with our Spicy Green Sauce, of course!
