Baking club has started again. Putting the Easter chocolate indulgence behind us, it was lovely to see that William had been busy preparing some juice berry fruit salad which included strawberries, blueberries and banana pieces.

BBC Radio Leeds: My Signature Dish.
Today I was interviewed by BBC Radio Leeds to talk about my signature dish that I regularly make during the week for all the family which is Teriyaki Salmon served with seasonal greens.

This evolved into making my e-book called 'Can I Eat It?', ...

Review: Kirsty’s Chilled Ready Meals.
Today has been another one of those typical crazy days flying from one place to another spinning plates, collecting the children from school and nursery, a quick change of uniform, half the fridge demolished by the two eldest and straight back out to the weekly swimming lessons. Familiar to many I am sure.
I love cooking from scratch but on some occasions, there are physically not enough hours in the day to fulfil my passion and get creative in the kitchen. Cue Kirsty’s.
We recently ...
