Courgette breakfast strata A really easy breakfast bake, perfect for using up lots of courgette.

Courgette and Barley Salad I bought a bag of barley last year with high hopes of making hearty soups and comforting stews in the winter months. A year later and there was still half a bag languishing in the back of the cupboard. We’ve still got some courgettes in the fridge, and I decided to try using the cooked […]

Courgette Spaghetti I discovered a new blog recently – Smitten Kitchen. It quickly went on my google reader subscribe list and I’m now suitably hooked so I urge you check it out too. This recipe immediatley appealed as it’s another courgette recipe. Although very similar to other courgette pasta, this is a sort of light version. Courgettes […]
