Simple but delicious tomato soup: recipe below Serves 4; 2 medium onions 2 celery sticks 25g butter 2 cloves garlic 500ml stock Seasoning - pinch sugar, salt and pepper Jar of passata (680g)- I used @bunalunorganic and tbh got this recipe on the back of the jar! 👍 Melt butter in heavy based saucepan over low- med heat. Once melted add onions and celery and sweat (lid on) for 10 mins. Add chopped garlic and sweat for another 5. Add passata, stock and seasoning. Bring to a simmer for another 15 mins. Blend and check for seasoning. Serve up and enjoy - I recommend double batching ! #tomatosoup #elbowsoffthetable #fromscratch #healthyfastfood #souprecipe #soupseason #wholefood #cookitypurself #homemade #onmyplate #inmybowl #nourishbowls #eatwell #eattherainbow #everythinginmoderation

Yummy salad black pudding , blue cheese , walnuts and leaves with a side of freshly baked brown bread. Delish - from @thepepperpotcafe . Was great to get out of the house & in for a brief jaunt in town 🥳 #dublincafe #independentcafe #realfood #onmyplate

Slow cooker chicken casserole - a one pot healthy, nourishing bowl of goodness. This is made with homemade organic chicken stock to ward off any January sniffles. I save the seasoning for afterwards so the little man can enjoy it too. Recipe on the blog now 😋 Ps- my stock looks a bit cloudy ... not perfect but homemade for first time in ages so I am happy! I’ll share stock recipe next #fromscratch #elbowsoffthetable #eatwell #onepotmeal #dinnerinspiration #bowlfood #casserole #chickencasserole #cookityourself #myplate #foodforthesoul #chickenstock #realfood #wholefood #healthyrecipeideas

My chilli con carne recipe 🔥: 750g mince 1 large onion- finely chopped 4 cloves garlic - finely chopped 1 red pepper 1 heaped tablespoon hot chilli powder 3 level tsp ground cumin 3 level tsp paprika 1/2 level tsp cayenne 1 tin chopped tomatoes 2 tbspn tomato purée 1 beef stock cube 150ml water A little dark chocolate (a couple squares or approx 5-6 choc drops) - big pinch sugar if you don’t have dark choc.. but it adds a delicious depth of flavour. 1 can kidney beans Will post the detailed method on the blog tonight but the basics 👇 Fry off onion , garlic, red pepper, followed by spices for a few mins , followed by browning mince. Season was later with a little salt and pepper. Add stock, water, tomatoes and purée and dark choc. Season again. Leave to cook for as long as possible. Add can of kidney beans about 30mins before ready. Tastes even better the next day. Check for seasoning and adjust. Serve with grated white cheddar, sour cream, fresh coriander and guacamole and long grain rice . I love spice and this carries a bit of a kick but won’t leave the average joe 💦schweating.
