Spur of the moment posting! It wasn’t until after I already chopped the bell peppers, chili pepper and onion that I spontaneously decided to grab my camera and turn it into a quick photo posting. The photos aren’t great because, well, I was in a hurry (dinner time) and didn’t have time for a proper set up, but you’ll get the idea! This is really simple and basic food—the type of food that pops…
It’s Sunday, just got back from a long walk in the park before the bad weather is supposed to set in. I have plenty of free time on my hands, lots of beef in the freezer, stocked up on vegetables, radio tuned in to the best Motown, northern soul music and my munchkin is napping.

Found it in one of those old fashioned ‘grandma cooks’ cookbooks some time ago and it immediately caught my eye. It looked so cheerful and playful, I simply had to make it.

I’m a firm believer of ‘less is more‘ when it comes to cooking. Less is often much, much more. Get down to basics – good…
There are so many burgers out there, it’s amazing. Just google it, the list is endless. Every one claims the best burger. I don’t. I think ‘the best burger’ simply doesn’t exist.
