Baker & Foodie Content Creator
My name is Lee, welcome to my pages. I hope we can have fun together?
When I’m not developing recipes for others, writing guest blogs, writing my own blog, or even trying to learn how to paint, I’m usually spending time with the amazing Mr G (my husband) or with my lovely daughter or my lovely son (very proud mum).
What is this all about? Great question. This site is about real cooking and baking, real recipes and real mistakes.
No filters here, (although i’d love to find a filter that can take ten years worth of laugh lines away. Just me, whats happening, and whatever cameras or phone i have to hand .
There are many things that get under my bonnet and wiggle around, one of those is food waste. If i buy ingredients specifically for a recipe, and i only need a small amount of the ingredients, i want to be able to use the rest up and not have to throw them away. My mum used to say , “Waste not Want not” is that still a saying ?
For me, waste is not just about using up all the ingredients. What about leftover food? If i’m able , i hope to give ideas as to how to use up any leftovers too.
Be Brave
Cooking isn’t hard , neither is baking, its all about being brave and being ok with making mistakes

Pepper & Paprika Chicken Thighs is a dish that is easy to cook and full of flavour. With a Croatian pantry staple, Vegeta, which adds that certain something extra, it's a weeknight dish or a Saturday night show stopper. Pair it with potatoes, rice just putout a plate of good bread to soak up all that sauce.
Everyone loves a one pot dish, time and flavours merge to make something special. Fish is getting more expensive, so when it's out there at a good price, grab it and make it into this One Pan Roast Salmon & King Prawns with New Potatoes, Peas & Mint. Its fresh and a meal in itself, no need to make anything else. For a Saturday night treat or a week day meal, its perfect for both.
