Salad Day

After yesterday's heavy on the fried food list today I thought I'd better try harder to get my five-a-day fruit and veg in today.



Greek country salad, or nearly anyway as I've substituted toasted hazelnuts for the feta cheese and I'm not sure if the Greeks grow mâche. Even if they don't I'm sure they'd enjoy it as they make use of huge range of green leafy plants. To serve with it, tzatziki, soya yoghurt with cucumber, garlic and mint stirred in and some slightly stale bread for that truly nostalgic memory of holidays past.

Dinner for Two

Our 10th year anniversary dinner, 21st June 2007.

The theme was food that could be fed to your lover, tiny nibbles, finger food, dishes to share, nothing too heavy or intimidating.


Love Bites - amuses bouche of marinated olives in lemon and herbs and spicy baked chickpeas.


Nostalgia - on our first 'date' I made bruschetta like these.


Pierce my Heart - tofu skewered, with soft fondant potatoes and tender mange tout.


Pudding to share - Chocolate Apricot Gateau with Green Ginger Ice Cream.
