Culinary Goddess: Winter Warmers Recipe - Broccoli & Cauliflower Soup



With the nights longer and colder, we really crave our comfort food.  Something rich and delicious (and preferably nutritious!) to warm us from the inside out!

So this is the first of my 'Winter Warmers' recipes, which will be a series of recipes full of food that does just that. To follow the series, you can click on the 'Winter Warmers' label/tag above or at the bottom of this post :)

This is such a nice, simple and comforting recipe that anyone can enjoy - and for anyone doing Slimming World, it's full of speedy veg too which is a great bonus! :)

Culinary Goddess: Cold & Flu Tips and Home Remedies

It's that time of year where the days are shorter and darker and the nights are colder - we're hustling and bustling to and from the cold and one central heating system to another and this can wreak havoc on our immune systems, so we need to take extra care of ourselves to try and avoid the sniffles that are bound to do the rounds any minute (if not already).

These are a few tips and tricks that I've come up with over the years that I always abide by as both preventative measures as well as upon first signs of any sniffle symptoms.

I love to play around with recipes, get creative and make them my own - which is exactly how I came up with the below recipe, which has become very popular and a real favourite with my family and friends.

I took a simple blueberry muffin recipe and adapted it to make it even more jam-packed full of goodness!

Do You Know This Couple?

Do you or someone you know like to spend Sunday afternoons paddle boarding with their other half on Dublin's River Liffey?

Dubliner Anthony Burrowes took the below photo on Sunday afternoon (November 1st) just before 4pm.

Overlooking the Liffey, the photo captured a perfectly candid and romantic moment between a couple on their paddle boards - which was completely accidental.
