Simple, Quick and Delicious Sausage Roll
With it being the school holidays we spent the day
exploring the South Downs
. Muddy paths, giant mud puddles and chalk cliffs. With the kids taking it in turns showering, changing and generally winding down, I needed something quick and filling.
Scallops with leeks and lemon chilli butter
I cooked this for myself only because the kids were at their Mums, however, it would be easy to scale up and wouldn't cost much more than £5.00. So if you want something that is quick and easy to cook and tasted great, give it a go. My local supermarket had run out of fresh scallops and I didn't have time to get to the fishmongers. So, I opted for a bag of frozen ones.
Cupcakes - Dad's Delicious Bake Off
