Butternut and tomato risotto

Hi everyone my name is Lucy and I would love to share some of my good, cheap, healthy and baby friendly recipes with you. This is my first go at this blogging thing so please be patient and any feedback would be much appreciated. I decided to go on this journey after searching for loads of cheap dishes, books, the whole lot and I have found it hard because even the budget-friendliest recipes out there has ingredients I do not have, so this is my attempt to put together a list of recipes with ingredients that people do have in their cupboard or even just ingredients that can be purchased cheaply.  Now I am by no means an amazing cook but I do enjoy and love coo...

VIDEO: Quick and Simple Chicken Chorizo!

This is an old video from last year (Nov 2016) which my husband began recording without any warning (as you can probably tell from my reactions)! He was trying to encourage me to start a food blog back then, and now it's finally here! I'll update this post to include the recipe properly, since the beginning of this recipe wasn't caught on camera. Despite the randomness of the video below, some people on Facebook did manage to follow along and successfully make their own dish from this -- so just bear with my husband's silliness and commentary ;)   Watch the video below for the process   Let me know how yours goes in the comments below -- post photos!...

4 Step Slow Cooker BBQ Meaty Ribs

This is one of my new favourite go-to recipes -- it goes down very well at parties and with guests, and best of all: it's so easy to make! People will think you spent hours making the perfect BBQ ribs, when in reality you sat back and put your feet up (unless you have a small child like me!).   So here's a quick guide to how I make my "famous" BBQ ribs in four easy steps:   Step 1: Chop onions and garlic, place ribs in slow cooker and cover with a whole bottle of BBQ sauce.   Step 2: Add a little water to the BBQ sauce bottle (about half), swish around and pour out over the ribs.   Step 3: Cook on HIGH for 4 - 6 hours (or LOW for 6 - 8 hours)....
