Peach & Mint Ice Tea
Ice tea is my favourite way to quench my thirst in the summertime. Cool, refreshing and sweet! It’s so easy to make it yourself, and a bonus is that it is nowhere near as full of sugar as the shop bought varieties. I’ve always liked Earl Grey tea, but I prefer to stay off the… Read more »

Zucchini Lemon Loaf
Last year, I learnt that zucchini isn’t reserved for savoury dishes alone. No, it works really well in baking too. In the same way that carrot adds sweetness and moisture to a carrot cake, so does the zucchini. I made a few zucchini breads last summer, adding in chocolate and spices.

Watermelon Salad with Mint & Lime Yoghurt
Here’s a lovely summer salad with a fresh mint & lime dressing, perfect for warm days. It would also work really well to bring on a picnic. My friend @theroguebrusselsprout asked me to contribute to her collection of salad dressings, and after messing my first attempt up, this is my second try. I dare say… Read more »
