This is a my light twist on a classic salad. Waldorf salad has such amazing textures and pairs beautifully with warm, oozy cheese.

Spinach and Strawberry Salad with Salmon
Spinach and Strawberry Salad with Salmon is one of my favourite ways to give my iron levels a boost. The balsamic dressing has a great consistency and sweet, tangy flavour.
Greek Yoghurt and Passion Fruit
Passion Fruit and Greek Yoghurt is one of my favourite breakfasts for giving my body a boost after indulging in rich foods over the weekend.
Peanut Butter and Jam Eggy Bread
I didn’t grow up eating peanut butter so I’m getting a second childhood diet through my Canadian children. Sweet and somehow savoury at the same time, Peanut Butter and Jam Eggy Bread is such fun to make.
Breakfast Trifle
Breakfast Trifle is a very happy combination of brioche, yoghurt, fruit, custard and cream. The kids love building their own trifles from the ingredients laid out on the table.
Cranachan
Cranachan is the Queen of Scottish desserts. Raspberries and toasted oats enveloped in whisky cream is the perfect dessert for Burn’s Night.
Heart Hero Porridge
This loaded porridge is my go-to breakfast. It’s amazing for my heart and tastes fantastic. I want a long life but I don’t want it to be filled with bland food!
Fig, Lemon and Cinnamon Jam
I rarely plan to make jam or chutney. It happens because I have fruit that I forgot to use and I need to turn it into something ASAP! I don’t need recipes that require a kilo of fruit because I rarely have a kilo of leftover fruit so this quick and easy recipe makes one jar.
Fig and Pecan Salad
Amongst the rich and decadent dishes of Christmas I look forward to this lighter dish. So full of flavour and texture it is one of my favourite festive lunches.
Canadian Apple Betty
When cooking apples are plentiful (and free from my Dad’s trees) I make this dessert that is a crumble with more bite! Canadian flavours smothered in British custard makes me happy.
