This week, Lucy is sharing a Meat Free Monday show stopper which would also make a brilliant addition to your Easter table. I feel I don’t do enough for the lovely vegetarian Lucy Loves readers. There’s only so much Red Lentil Curry you can eat in a week and even though it’s delicious, it’s not…
With Mothering Sunday on the horizon, this week, Lucy is sharing a recipe to butter up the Mum in your life. Mother’s Day can be a bit hit and miss in our house. Not being mean, but over the years, it’s been a rogue mixture of toddler and not so toddler tantrums, sub standard pub lunches mixed…
This week, Lucy is sharing a new savoury take on the Pancake Day classic. I love Shrove Tuesday for several reasons a) it means spring is not far off and winter is almost *please* over b) pancakes and c) more pancakes. I am really superstitious about the fact I have to make pancakes for the…
This week, Lucy is treating us to a classic French dessert, full of elegance and plenty of double cream. I got an email recently from a PR company offering to send me a Creme Brûlée making set, such are the joys of being a food blogger. As I had been meaning to feature a recipe…
This week, Lucy is preparing us for the supposed most romantic day of the year with a lovingly baked treat. According to marketing types and card manufacturers the most romantic day of the year is approaching. If that’s the case then romance is dead in our house. We do exchange cards on the 14th but we’ve never…
This week, Lucy is transforming a pasta dish into something much more weekend than mid week. We must eat pasta at least 2, if not 3 times a week in our house. It’s a huge favourite with teenage boys due to its extreme carb loading nature. It’s easy to let pasta become a sort of…
Wednesday 25th January is Burns Night, the annual celebratory tribute to the life, works and spirit of the great Scottish poet, Robert Burns (1759-1796) and, although we’re far from his homeland, we can still celebrate and bring some fresh flavours and fun to this cold, old month! Most Burns Suppers adhere, more or less, to…
This week in advance of Burns Night on Wednesday, Lucy is treating us to a slightly boozy version of a childhood favourite. When I was young, as I know I have mentioned before, puddings were few and far between. Fruit, yoghurt, jelly at best, all slim pickings really. Until the invention of Angel Delight that…
This week, Lucy is making a simple but tasty cake, and as it’s made with yoghurt, it’s surely a healthy offering. Sometimes, only a simple sponge cake will do. Especially at this time of the year, when the last thing you want to do is spend any time in the kitchen. I may as well have set…
This week, Lucy is back and she’s sharing an elegant family supper dish, which could also utilise some more Christmas leftovers. Happy new year to you all, if you are not sick to death of hearing that or saying it yet. I am also not quite ready to say hello to the new healthy 2017…
