There’s nothing better than gathering around the table with a couple of drinks and a spread of vibrant crudités - especially when the sun is shining and you can take it all outside. These two dips are absolute staples in my kitchen. They’re fresh, flavourful, and come together with ease. I love serving them alongside chopped carrots, celery, and homemade breadsticks as a light appetizer before a barbecue.

Exam season is in full swing in our house, and it’s easily the most stressful time on the family calendar.

Two of our go-to favourites are homemade pizza dough and a rich, slow-cooked meat sauce. The pizza dough is quick, easy, and endlessly customisable, letting everyone top their own and making dinner feel fun and low-effort.
