I know its a bit later in the day, but i am bored and fed up of the same old cereals or toast for breakfast. So i made sone Winter Breakfast muffins from Racel Allens Cake CookBook, they are absoloutly gorge and my friends and family go mad for them. I do think that they could maybe do with a tad more mixed spice though. They are so good for breakfast because they have ginger and mixed fruit in them !

Highly reccomended.

A million and one Chantenay carrots left over from Christmas?

Carrot and Coriander soup.

Sweat an onion
Add a teaspoon of coriander powder
Stir it about a bit.
Chop the carrots up a bit
Chuck them in the pot with some stock
Simmer until carrots are soft
Blend the soup
Add fresh chopped coriander (if you've got any)
Add a dollop of cream if you are so inclined

Voila.

Leftovers be gone!

Unfortunately I don't really follow recipies and have a base and make it up as I go along.


Here are some that I have used from online or written out.
