Our favorite of all is this English classic -- Eton Mess. You know why? It wasn't only delicious but has just 3 ingredients  --- meringue, cream and strawberries!! When you use store-bought meringue (which I do) all you need is 10 minutes to make this awesome summer dessert!! Intrigued? Read on....

It seems like forever since I posted. I do apologize my dear readers for that hiatus. We've been on a month-long holiday in Europe in June which extended up to the first week of July. Thereafter, it took me a little over a week to get over the jet lag and pure exhaustion. I have only been getting back into the swing of things recently and thankfully,now, I feel human again!! Hurrah! :)

Slow Cooker Salsa Verde Chicken

Simply dump the chicken, salsa verde and seasonings and what comes out of the slow cooker is one super delicious dish. Perfect for your tacos and burritos!


My family loves Mexican food and have it at least once or twice a week. Although Mexican food is pretty reasonably priced we cannot afford to buy it all the time as we would be bankrupt! So for us the only way to satisfy our cravings for tacos, burritos and enchiladas would be if Mom (that's me!) make some and feed her hungry family!

It's summer time and we have been experiencing such lovely weather here in England where we are on holiday and visiting some family. That explains why I have been a bit late in posting some recipes for the month of June my dear readers. We have been traveling and I am just over the jet lag, I think and I hope so.  In the next few days I hope to catch up and I finally I got a new one for you!!
