Where great tasting food is always the answer
Meringue Kisses are really easy to make and look so pretty. They are great in a dessert but also to add something extra special to a celebration cake. Making meringue kisses for the first time I have admired Meringue Kisses for a few years now. I know that sounds weird, but I love how cute they look but have never made them.

My Spanish Baked Chorizo & Beans is a take of a tasty dish I had in Spain. A rich tomato sauce with creamy beans and spiced chorizo perfect as a starter or for lunch. Recreating a tasty holiday dish I had a very similar dish to this on a recent holiday to Fuerteventura.

Whenever we go there, we always try to visit one particular restaurant that cooks steak ... continue reading...
