Fridge Leftovers Frittata
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
Even the most sorry-looking kitchens should have a few eggs, veggies and a bit of leftover cheese knocking around. My fridge-leftovers frittata is a great little lunchtime dish; it's a filling base for lots of additions, depending on what's in your kitchen. Try adding leftover ham, chorizo, spinach, peas, herbs, all sorts really.
Spicy White Bean and Chorizo Soup
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
It's meaty and filling and is perfect on colder days.
Serves: 4
Moroccan Spiced Chicken
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
This is a brilliant combination of warming flavours and pure fresh spice. A lovely, quick way to make a meal a little different whilst keeping things really simple and light. Spiced chicken, zingy mayonnaise and crisp green salad, yum!
Roast Garlic Bangers and Mash
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
Ah! My ultimate comfort food! I love adding roast garlic to the mash to add even more flavour. Serve these with a red onion gravy and I promise you will have empty plates all round!

Chinese Five-spice Pork Belly
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
Crispy crackling and tender pork belly meat paired with Chinese five-spice powder – a match made in heaven. For just the tiniest amount of work in the kitchen, using an inexpensive piece of meat, you get the most amazing results, which will feed a crowd. There are many different things you can do with pork belly as it’s quite versatile, but I like the simplicity of this method; it’s a nod to Asia, where this is an incredibly popular cut of meat.
Basic Cupcakes
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
This recipe comes from my Aunt Erica, and is adapted from her fairy cake recipe. If you are making these for the kids to decorate and you want to limit the time it takes put everything together, it may be easier to make the cupcakes in advance and then get the kids to decorate them later on.
Serves: 6
Jam jumble crumble tart
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
This tart is a real lifesaver; it uses solely kitchen staple ingredients and is very easy to assemble. It reminds me of the little tarts I used to make when I first started baking but is a bit more sophisticated and I love the addition of desiccated coconut, which goes well with the jam. You can use whatever jam you have in your store cupboard, all flavours work perfectly.

Swedish Christmas Rice Pudding (Julgrot)
From: Kitchen Hero: Great Food for Less
Serve big hearty spoonfuls of the chilled rice with an extra sprinkling of sugar and cinnamon and big dollops of whipped cream.
