Chicken & Bacon ‘Carbonara’

I say carbonara as it is loosely based on the recipe by using eggs and cheese as the sauce but authentic by no means. I add chicken for extra protein and use what’s available at the supermarket in the form of bacon and parmesan cheese. I also like adding a spoonful of cream cheese for extra creaminess but this is optional. If you can get hold of it, guanciale and pecorino cheese are what authentic carbonara's use. Please have a quick read of the notes before you get started!

Slow Cooker Chicken Balti

Nothing says warm and cosy like a homemade curry bubbling away in the slow cooker. It's rich, spicy with tender chunks of chicken. You can adjust the spice to suit your taste and I've popped how to do it on the hob if you don't have a slow cooker!

Steak & Garlic Mushroom Peppercorn Sauce Flatbreads

Boujee up your next steak night with these banging flatbreads. Juicy seared steak with garlic pan fried mushrooms with a delicious peppercorn sauce all tucked into flatbreads with a sprinkle of crispy onions. This filling is also delish in wraps, or stuffed into pitta breads if you prefer those, or you can have the filling with salad/ rice for a lower cal/carb option.

Beef Fajita Enchiladas

Smoky fajita flavoured beef wrapped in soft tortillas, smothered in a spiced tomato sauce, and baked until golden and bubbling...a perfect cosy weeknight dinner.

Cajun Popcorn Chicken Loaded Fries

These little bites of cajun spiced chicken are absolutely banging. Loaded onto crispy fries with cheese sauce and a drizzle of garlic yoghurt for a cheeky weekend fakeaway.

Chicken & Stuffing Gravy Burgers

The ultimate comfort fakeaway, seasoned chicken breast, a herby stuffing patty, melty cheese, and garlicky mayo all stacked in a brioche bun, finished with hot gravy and a sprinkle of crispy onions. Proper Sunday roast vibes, but in burger form.

Creamy Chicken, Bacon & Leek Loaded Crispy Potatoes

This is such a cosy dinner! Fully inspired by the pie but loaded onto potatoes for a quicker and easier midweek dinner. It's also delicious over mash if you fancy it.
