Chicken Quesadillas

YOU WILL NEED:

1 Pack of Tortilla Wraps
1 Jar or carton of Passatta (Italian tomato sauce)
Grated cheese
Cooked chicken pieces
Small amount of butter

This recipe is great when you don't have much time or as a late supper.
Instead of passatta you could use some BBQ sauce depends on your taste buds at the time. But the same principle applies.

Warm up your frying pan with a small knob of butter. Place a Tortilla in the pan, add your sauce
just enough to cover the tortilla just like a pizza. Add your grated cheese and chicken pieces. Place another Tortilla on top like a sandwich. As soon as it begins to brown a little underneath turn it over to brown the other side.

Slice it up into quarters and enjoy!

This can easily be modified try adding some fried onion and mixed peppers for that truly Mexican dish.

To save money use left over meats from previous days dinner.

The Electric Pressure Cooker

Not so long ago I brought my pressure cooker because I wanted to save time and with ill health I thought it would make life a little easier. But to my astonishment it works out to be one of the best time saving gadgets I have purchased, I would absolutely recommend anyone to buy one of these. There are several on the market now and range in prices I got mine at a really good price off the internet. I have made stews, boiled rice (to perfection), I even made BBQ wings in it. Its faster than a electric slow cooker even though it had the slow cook enablement button. you can even cook cakes so it says in the instruction manual. This cost around £35-40 and I have seen larger 5ltr capacity on sale for around the £50 mark There is a timer delay on it so you can go about your day and it will be done for when you return. It keeps warm incase you not back in time for the beeps to say its cooked. They are a good buy and well worth the money and time saving.

Strawberry Sorbet

YOU NEED: 1 Punnet of Strawberries 2 tbsp. Honey 4 tbsp. Plain yoghurt Of course you can use frozen and this will be done almost instantly, without having to freeze. You can also use different fruits most will turn out just fine. Cut tops off your strawberries (if using fresh), place into your food processor. add the other ingredients and whizz on max until all strawberries have virtually disintegrated into the yoghurt and honey. Freeze until needed.

About me.

I should have done this along time ago, people asking me how I do my cooking and where I get my passion from. Who and where do I get my ideas from? Where does this knowledge come from? I didn't learn this from school thats for sure and certainly didn't go to college to be taught how to cook. Cooking to me was just enjoyable, like a hobby tried and tested sometimes i failed miserably. My children used to look at me in a way only children do " what is that"? Hiding vegetables in other foods to try and get them to eat their greens. Concealing sprouts and leeks in with a cabbage I knew they liked and enjoyed. This did work for a while. I even had to call sausages 'Batman Bangers' just so that my son would eat a sausage! Crazy I know. I spent a lot of time in the kitchen when I was younger. I was an accident prone kid and whilst I was off school for one reason or another I used to be watching my mum cook in the kitchen. Bugging her with questions ...
