The Boyfriend’s Homemade Fakeaways: Donner Kebab

When I first met my boyfriend he’d barely ever cooked a thing, having served 5 years in the army, he’d been fed three times a day and never had to. However being a big food lover and knowing how big a foodie I was, he won me over when we were first dating by cooking…

Tortilla Pizzas

Do you ever get a bit bored of sandwiches and soup for lunch options? I do. On a rainy Sunday recently I had an array of wraps and rolls that could do with using up, a variety of salad and sandwich fillings and just really didn’t fancy another same old sarnie. It was a bit…

The Saucepot’s Lunchbox: Chicken, Sweet Potato & Houmous Wrap

I haven’t done lunchbox post in absolutely forever. Many because I’ve been naughty and lazy and started going out to buy lunches while I was at work.

Essex Festival of Food & Drink

A few weeks ago I was absolutely delighted to discover the Essex Festival of Food & Drink literally ten minutes drive from my house. Having found out about it all very last minute from my cousin who had been last summer, I didn’t really know what it was all about and was expecting to find…
