Well I have made lots of soup in my time. Pre primal I would just mix up a stock cube or 5 with water and throw that in the mix. And it all tasted fine.

Going primal made me actually look at what was in this so called “stock cube”, OMG yuk and double yuk!! So, I progressed onto the purest store bought stock I could find, and I found my soups tasted 100% better (well surprise, surprise). Next step, of course, is to make my own – then I will know for sure what’s in it and can cook it long and slow to make sure all that lovely goodness is got.

So off we go…

Monday night and after a long day at work I just want to get home, change into comfy clothes and blob in front of the fire. So what to cook that takes minimal effort, hits the taste buds and uses up all the left-overs from the weekend?

Fritatta, that’s the answer. But not just any old “mix up a few eggs and stuff” one, this is super special it’s Soufflé Fritatta. We can thank the lovely Michele Tam over at Nom Nom Paleo for the inspiration for this fluffy little number.

This recipe is another one from the More or Less category, so use your imagination for the filling or just chuck in whatever is in your fridge!

The wonderful thing about not freaking out about fat is that you are open to all sorts of possibilities.

Consider a Tuesday night, you are nearly through to Hump day, the week is still blah! So do you really want to prepare food when, let’s face it, a heathy slug of red wine is so much more tempting. But feed the inner you is what needs to happen at some point. Well, luckily for me our supermarket (food market, call it what you want market), sells BBQ free range chicken and nice and moist it is. But chicken on it’s own, although rather enticing, needs a little something extra. So a forage in my fridge comes up with sour cream, mushrooms and a 1/2 bag of baby spinach.

Brilliant – so here we go!!
