Thai prawn & asparagus pilaf

Guess who's back, back again... I come bearing excitingly flavoured gifts. I noticed this recipe while in Waitrose but substituted a few ingredients because a) my mum doesn't love super spicy food and b) we didn't have them all. I present to you thai prawn & asparagus pilaf!

A bit like a spicy risotto, this dish is great cause it only uses one pan. I am definitely going to turn this into one of my go-to recipes, it's relatively quick and easy and tastes great.

Spicy cauliflower tacos

I never used to like cauliflower, however I've recently been finding myself eating more of it, and I feel like it doesn't deserve its bad reputation.

This is a healthy and vegetarian (can be vegan if you don't add cheese) alternative to chicken or beef wraps. I don't know if these count as tacos or fajitas (please can someone explain the difference!) but they're pretty great!

Frozen chocolate banana bites

I've been pretty busy over the past few weeks with trips to Bristol and Devon so there hasn't been much time for cooking... added to long days at work involving a lot of writing, sometimes the last thing I want to do is come home and write more! Anyway, I missed blogging and I'm back with the laziest "recipe" EVER.

This is not the neatest or most photogenic recipe but its quick and relatively healthy. I have a constant struggle with being addicted to chocolate and ice cream but wanting to be healthy, so I think this recipe is strikes a sort of balance.
