Cauliflower “Rice” : Late adopters welcome

I like cauliflower. I’ve posted several recipes  on this site so that proves it but I have always shied away from getting on the “cauliflower rice” band waggon. I think it’s the use of the word rice rather than the actual food itself. It is after all just finely chopped up vegetable but I guess… Read More Cauliflower “Rice” : Late adopters welcome

I’ve added sweetcorn to my vegetable selection because I always loved sweetcorn relish so it satisfies two things for me. My daughters bought me a great book called The Modern Preserver by Kylee Newton which gave me most of the… Read More Manchester Piccalilli

Tasty Tabbouleh

The thing is there are loads of ways to make a tabbouleh so don’t get too hung up if you have things missing. But you need loads of herbs, bulgar wheat (although couscous, quinoa or lentils could be used), lemon and olive oil.

I’m Will

Welcome to my site. My aim is to find ways to use my love for food and drink to make me thinner NOT fatter. As a 50 something bloke my view of how to achieve this, I think, is more realistic than many food bloggers.
