Books T&Cs apply

I like to experiment but nothing beats cooking an 'any day Roast' for my boy, I'm lucky he loves his vegetables and it's his favourite meal. It makes it all the more special when we can do on a Sunday and have his grandparents over too

When we holiday with friends it always has to be Jambalya. It's so easy to make and yet utterly delicious. There are so many variations and I always make two panfuls. One for the children (and adults who don't have an adventurous palate!) and one super-spicy pan for the foodies.

I love to cook a roast dinner with all the trimmings

My little boy loves spaghetti bolognese, Chili and anything with chick peas, so I try and include these in my weekly meal planning.

My husband is a great cook, I cannot really compete, but I do make great salads, and I bake. My husband and son particularly enjoy my banana bread and Scandinavian cinnamon buns.

Well I enjoy cooking savoury dishes as well as sweet dishes, and the family enjoy what I cook but they all have ultra sweet teeth!

Any type of sponge goes down well, chocolate tiffin, flapjacks, coconut ice, fudge...

I think the favourite would just be anything homemade, I think it's because of the special ingredient - an overflowing cup full of love that and being able to tailor it to suit all the fussy eaters

Cranberry and choc orange cookies for when the DCs head off to rugby training I swap half the flour for oats to give then a bit more energy

Welsh cakes, yum.

Fish Pie - it's a hybrid of Mary Berry and Jamie Oliver recipes.
For dessert gingered bread and butter pudding.

The most requested snack in this house is blue cheese scones.

When DD1 comes home, she always wants either roast dinner or some sort of curry feast. DD2 is happiest when whatever I cook involves either pasta with lots of cheese, or rice and a free hand with the soy sauce!

For dessert, crumbles and trifle always go down well.

Home made breads and buns..
often with names and initials on such as these Hot cross Initial Buns!

Also I am requested to make home made lemonade on holiday every year (from the lemons in the garden of the house we stay in) . Takes hours (as I have to do it all by hand) and can be drunk in minutes

Homemade Spaghetti bolognese, pizza, lasagne, calzone, Peru peri wedges, Indian roast chicken, Rachel Allan's spicy Moroccan chickpea soup with pitta bread wedges.

Sunday roast with all the trimmings followed by treacle sponge and custard . Eaten with all the family

I bake cakes for my family on a regular basis. Their faves are lemon drizzle cake & chocolate and banana loaf. I also make celebration cakes for special occasions. I most recently made a baby shower cake for my sister in law.

I cook a mean roast dinner every week for the 4 growing males in my home! I can never believe how much food they can consume!

roast lamb dinner we all love it

I cook 2 different dishes depending. If it's for the family them it has to be macaroni cheese. We all love it. If people are coming them it has to be guiness beef casserole. Yummy!

Some of my best dishes are from the slow cooker. My family's favourites are pulled pork, Mexican chicken, or beef stew, anything with tender meat.

I love to cook especially dishes where I can pretend that I actually know what I'm doing tossing things in a flipping them about but the dish I cook for those I love would be home made macaroni and cheese finished off in the oven with grated cheese to make a crust 😍

Irish Stew every time.

Vegetarian lasagne with lots of salad.

I love to cook and enjoy hosting friends for supper and I would never serve this to guests but I'm going to say my mum's soup. It tastes of love. She's long dead now and it's really too thick to count as soup but she made an amazing ham, veg and barley soup. It's a bit of an oddity in that her mother made the exact same soup but we could taste the difference from 'Mam's Soup' and 'Nana's Soup'. My sister and I both make it now and again we can taste who made it - proving love must be one of the prime ingredients! I make it in winter when I need a hug and it takes me right back to my childhood (even if it's not as good as the one she made).

We are all coeliacs and so homemade is mostly what I do. I do a fabulous meat and potato pie.

My family love Moroccan food so I spoil them with a chicken tagine (although some of them have been known to pick out the olives!)

Lots of things: Sausage casserole, chicken stir fry, spaghetti bolognese, curry, and roast dinner
