It’s Mid Week YAY! And today I thought we would change it up from Mid Week Makeover and look for a low fat and crowd pleasing Weight Watchers recipe. A few years ago, my former team was offered Weight Watchers at Work which was a fabulous initiative in wellness. Not only did we have a [...]

Fake Out Takeout ~ Cashew Chicken

cashew chicken final

By the time Friday rolls around I am generally to tired to lift a pan to cook dinner. It’s the end of the week, everyone is tired *and* famished, and we need a quick and easy meal to feed the masses that appear at our house each weekend. Friday is also one of those rare [...]

Mid Week Makeover ~ Cheeseburger Casserole

cheeseburger final

I’ve yet to meet a kid who doesn’t like a cheeseburger. In my past life I certainly devoured more than my fair share of the golden arches burgers but nothing could beat the summertime bbq burgers of my Grandad. I still love a (meatless) cheeseburger made from Portobello, but the rest of my family enjoy [...]

Workout Wednesday, Gluten Free Flour and a GIVEAWAY!

Yesterday’s 2 cake post for the Lemon Meringue Cake was a mammoth effort and I’ve not been feeling tip top the past few days so I’m giving myself the night off from recipe blogging for you, sorry!  Plus, with the six foot teenager at home the last 2 weeks due to exams, well, there ARE [...]
