#avocadotoast

July 13, 2019 by Christian Gott 1 Comment

Did you know that there are over one and a half million pictures of avocado on toast on Instagram? The dish really exploded in popularity in the 1990’s and it has been suggested that it has caused a massive spike in the cost of avocados.

The Food Bloggers Breakfast and my home baked Granola

April 2, 2019 by Christian Gott Leave a Comment

Home made Granola and Berries

Granola is a very popular breakfast cereal made from baked oats with oil and honey or sugar. Factory manufactured granola can be quite expensive and yet it is so very easy to make at home. It is delicious mixed with dried fruits and nuts such as flaked almonds, apricots, raisins, and sultanas or eaten with creamy, natural yoghurt, sliced banana and sprinkled with blueberries.

My Perfect Christmas dinner – sides

December 23, 2018 by Christian Gott Leave a Comment

My perfect Christmas Dinner – Sides. A perfect Christmas roast turkey dinner isn’t a perfect Christmas dinner for me without the stuffing, gravy, roast potatoes, and the rest of the sides. Honey roast parsnips, buttered carrots and today’s recipes braised red cabbage, Brussel sprouts and of course cranberry sauce.
