	Spiced Spinach and Potatoes (Saag Aloo) by Sylvia Waltering Pin It Now!I know, I know, you could think I'm being sponsored by Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall, because this is another recipe from River Cottage Veg Every Day, but I am not. The only reason why I keep cooking from it and then blogging about it is that the recipes are really, really good and in my opinion the book is well worth buying.…	1 vote 340 views
	Roast Broccoli by Sylvia Waltering Roast Broccoli might not sound quite as exciting as let's say Torta di Spinaci or Lemon Drizzle Cake and I don't even know if you could really call it a recipe, probably more of a method, but it's amazingly good and certainly got me excited. Even my pictures aren't very exciting as I wasn't so sure it'd be worth writing about. It…	1 vote 471 views
	Rich Scones by Sylvia Waltering Mondays have become 'Making Mondays' at mine. I try and set the day aside and do some of my own work, rather than work work or just wasting the day away not achieving very much at all. So far it's working out quite well, but this afternoon I needed a little pick-me-up, make-me-smile kind of treat to keep going. So did Lucy who had…	1 vote 267 views
	Cauliflower and Chickpea Curry by Sylvia Waltering When the days are as busy as they are at the moment, I really regret not taking my slow cooker with me the last time I moved. I thought that my current kitchen was too small to find room for it, but on days where I get home late from work and still have a million and one things to sort out in the evening I so wish I'd open the front…	1 vote 409 views
	Key Lime Pie by Sylvia Waltering Well, maybe I should just call it Ordinary Lime Pie, because obviously I am unable to get key limes here in Manchester, but that doesn't make the pie any less good, so I'll just stick with the better known and let's face it better sounding name.When I was 16 I went on a three week road trip around Florida with my sister. That's when I…	1 vote 284 views
	Warm Butternut Squash, Sweet Potato and Lentil Salad by Sylvia Waltering I love sweet vegetables, butternut squash being one of my favourites. So when I saw a recipe for Squash, Sweet Potato and Lentil Salad on We Don't Eat Anything With A Face a couple of weeks ago I bookmarked it straight away. Sweet vegetables, warm spices, earthy lentils and salty cheese, what more could I want?Lucy and Yuri liked it,…	1 vote 568 views
	Smoked Mackerel and Avocado Sandwich by Sylvia Waltering Smoked Mackerel is one of those things that I regularly put on my shopping list even if I have nothing specific to make with it in mind. I just like having some in the fridge as it's not only healthy, but also delicious and a great additin to a salad, or what my friend H. calls a deli dinner (the kind of dinner where you just have…	1 vote 275 views
	Pea, Mint and Lettuce Soup by Sylvia Waltering Okay I admit, the words lettuce and soup together might sound strange. For most of us lettuce is there to be eaten raw in salads, but sometimes it actually works really well cooked. You should try it sometime.This recipe is based on one from an Avoca Cookbook, but I have changed it quite a bit, as I felt the original lacked flavour.…	1 vote 408 views
	Poached Egg and Avocado Toast by Sylvia Waltering Most weekday mornings I just have a bowl of cereal, porridge or a buttered crumpet with a cup of Earl Grey tea for breakfast. Today though, the combination of working from home and having planned soup for dinner, meant that I felt like having something a little more substantial and exciting to start the day off with.When I checked my…	1 vote 524 views
	Rhubarb Upside-Down Cake by Sylvia Waltering As you might have read in my previous posts, I'm on a bit of an economy drive. For a few months now I've been keeping a houshold book and realised that I spend a lot of money on food that I either never cook, which of course is not just bad for the environment, but also for my bank balance and that I spend far too much on bad canteen…	1 vote 337 views
