3 toppers for the new book

This post was first made on 27/11/2019

As today I had some left over mushrooms and newly harvested onions, I looked back with great joy and remembered the time we made stuffed mushrooms with Alice, Carmen, Li, Erika, Irine, and Sima. I have not seen them for such a long time. I hope they are well.

As I am hoping to get the 3rd cookery book published in the next couple of weeks, I wanted to put in 3 recipes that we had done before, tasted delicious and fancied eating them again.

A bit of a strange combination but a hit nonetheless.
We first made the chickpea chocolate brownies, a gluten free recipe which went down very well. Sema our newest member who claims that she cannot cook, treated us to some gorgeous brownies. We added a cherry from the cherry jam we made last year, and a dollop of greek yoghurt. 




We also made a cheese roll wreath, 


a wonderful recipe, easy to do and great for parties when people can just help themselves to a roll (or two) We use the Lazy dough recipe and then added a block of cheese and the parmesan and italian herbs in oil to spread on top     



Our main meal was the stuffed mushrooms, if only we could have had more of them.
   
  




Carmen suggested that instead of an empty ramekin in the middle of the bread wreath, we could have put in the stuffing we used for the mushroom; colourful and extremely tasty.

Will no doubt make these recipes more often, but for now they will end up in the recipe book.

Stuffed Mushrooms - gluten free

This post was first posted 47/2017
Today we made a vegetarian gluten free  stuffed mushroom recipe with the mushrooms and rice and the french beans.



We started with a lettuce soup to show how easy and quick it is to make a delicious creamy soup.



As Pauline's Morello cherries are ready to harvest and we have 9 pairs of hands to prepare them, we picked them and turned them into jam.




Yesterday I made a batch and turned it into Cherry Juice and some jam.



Although I never use straws to drink from, I have found that the dried chives stalks that I was pulling out were perfect biodegradable straws!
