Most people are used to eating Beef Stifado but this is just as tasty (with the same spices etc) but the meat is replaced with mushrooms. Its best to use a really firm mushroom such as chestnut or portobello so they keep their firmness through the cooking process. I like this served with rice and a little tzatziki on the side!

I think I might start to look like a mushroom soon! I have a husband who loves all things mushroom and as they are a good source of vitamin D why not! These little empanadas were really tasty and had a nice little kick to them, they are smokey, sweet, and spicy. Surprisingly they tasted great cold as well.

These may look a little rustic 🙂 but they are very comforting. Although I have added them into the weekend section, they really didn’t take that long to prepare and cook. They got a thumbs up from my husband and would definitely be a winner at a social gathering – I even think meat eaters would like these. This is another recipe that you can adapt to your favourite spices and all the ingredients are readily available. Sweet potatoes are highly nutritious and support the immune system, and are rich in fibre, combined with chickpeas which are high in protein, mushrooms that have vitamin D and you have a winner!

The magic of mushrooms! The humble mushroom packs a great immune-boosting punch, they are full of proteins, vitamins, minerals, amino acids, antibiotics, and antioxidants. They are a rich source of fibre, selenium, vitamin C, and vitamin D – so even though these are a tasty treat, they are also pretty good for you. Chilled and frozen pastry seems to be in good supply in the UK as are all the other ingredients – so get the kids and give this a go!

I don’t know about you but I love a pasty! Sometimes there is no substitute something hot and tasty through the winter months, some hot mashed potatoes, veg and gravy 🙂 These pasties have endless options for fillings and I enjoyed mine with a large dollop of dijon mustard – if you have time you can make your own pastry – if not pop to the shop and buy some from the chiller counter – we all need a little help sometimes!
