Metallic melodrama.....



I am loving loving loooooooooving flatforms and definitely embracing the metallic trend a lot more through my accessories. I absolutely adore these shiny metallic flatforms. They remind me of primary school sandals for some reason. I was  a bit hesitant as some high shine items can look tacky but after trying them on they are perfect. They have enough shine to catch the light and accentuate an outfit without looking trashy. The two below are my favs.

The warmer: Roasted pepper & butternut squash soup


London has been experiencing some dodgy ass weather once again. Is it hot?, is it cold? why is there rain, wind and weak sun assaulting my senses? Is this hayfever or a light "summer" sniffle I am experiencing?
 I dunno anymore. What I do know is that I have been craving roasted squash soup, with lashings of garlic and other beautiful accompaniments.


Squash, Red peppers, Garlic, Carrot and Spanish onions
 Recipe:
1 medium sized Squash
4 full bulbs of garlic
5 medium sized carrots
1 long bell pepper
2 medium sized onion
salt and pepper to taste
2.5 tablespoons of olive oil over the the veg 
roast 45 mins

Greek Yogurt and Dried chives added
  
Part 2:
Remove the skin of the now softened squash and roasted garlic. Cut carrots and squash into small chunks and blitz all roasted veggies in a blender with 1 cup of water.

Whilst blitzing, get a large pot that can hold the soup and some olive oil and add chopped spring onions and fried mushrooms cook down and add soup mixture. I seasoned with lots of chilli to balance the sweetness, black pepper and season all. My Focaccia recipe can be followed here.

Enjoy trying it out!

Keeping it simple: Grilled chicken & 4 cheese ravioli


It's bank holiday Monday, the sun is shining and I am finally feeling the vitamin D on my skin.
 I am chilaxing with my nephew in old as time pjs chowing down on some grilled chicken and 4 cheese ravioli.

This the best picnic of jam food as its simple yet effective and works hot or cold.


 My Friend Kezy made the Cheddar, goats cheese, mexicana and blue danish ravioli. After I raved about a similar ravioli I got from a deli. I believe she followed this recipe.

I used 4 Chicken breasts and sliced in a medium cut. They were seasoned with dried chives, season all, chilli, black pepper, soy sauce, paprika, lime and a dash of hoisin . Deglaze the pan for some sauce.

This is a deffo must try!
