Easy Pasta Recipe

Quick and Easy Pasta Recipe

As part of my easy midweek meal recipes, I would like to introduce to you this simple, delicious and super quick and easy pasta recipe. Using just a few ingredients you can get this delicious dinner to the table in less than 15 minutes and it only costs a few pounds to feed the entire family. Family life seems to take over rather quickly. We never seem to have enough time. I'm either running about after the kids or helping them out with homework. You all know that I try to avoid processed food. I would rather cook from scratch and that way I know what we are eating. Plus, it is a lot cheaper. A midweek meal needs to not only be delicious and affordable. It needs to be quick and easy to prepare and cook. Most parents, myself included, don't have time to be in the kitchen for hours on end every night. Check out my latest affordable and homecooked recipe here.

Another perfect midweek masterpiece type recipe. This Greek feta traybake recipe is quick, easy and delicious. The cost came in at well under £5.00 to serve all four of us and I actually had most of the ingredients in the house already.

It is full of vibrant colours and looked amazing on the plate when served. If you do have any leftovers, it makes can be eaten cold the next day for lunch.

Why not give it a go and remember to let me know what you think.

Greek Pork Kebabs - Pork Souvlaki with Greek salad and rice

With the six-monthly family visit to the dentist after school today I needed something fairly quick and easy to cook on our return. I already had the pork from a yellow sticker haul last week. So grabbed that out of the freezer this morning.

These Greek pork kebabs can be cooked on a BBQ but the weather isn't quite there yet, so I used the grill in the oven instead today.
