Chicken and 7-a-day Mediterranian Vegetables

Chicken and 7-a-day Mediterranian Vegetables by Janice Pattie

I thought I'd better make a recipe for my own blog challenge: The Slow Cooker Challenge. The theme this month is 7-a-day Fruits or Vegetables. Now it might be pushing it to get a full seven portions of fruit or vegetables onto one plate, but it isn't that difficult to add 7 fruits or vegetables to a single dish.Chickenwith 7…

Chocolate Pots by Janice Pattie

Simple recipes require the very best of ingredients. Chocolate Pots is a simple recipe and deserves good chocolate as the main ingredient.

Chardonnay Poached Pears and a Slow Cooked Christmas

Chardonnay Poached Pears and a Slow Cooked Christmas by Janice Pattie

Christmas cooking doesn't have to be rich and heavy, full of sugar and fat. I love a lush sugary treat but sometimes it's also nice to have a lighter fruity dessert like these poached pears. The recipe, and the wine, were supplied by Eisberg wines and I've replicated the recipe in it's original form below. However, I used my Slow…

What to Bake and How to Bake it: Festive Fruit Cake by Janice Pattie

Do you make a fruit cake for Christmas? Usually I have my cake made at the end of October and maturing until it is iced a couple of weeks before Christmas. However, this year I was in danger of not having any cake at all, as I've just been so busy. Thank goodness I was sent a copy of What to Bake and How to Bake it by Jane Hornby…
