Last week I shared with you my Recipe for Gratinated Razor Clams with Chorizo & Parmesan which was the starter dish for my anniversary meal with Dan. We followed it up with these delicious Moules Marinières as the main course. A complete seafood feast! We’ve …

Whenever I ask someone on a grainfree diet what the one thing they miss eating most is, the answer is inevitably bread! I’m no different! I spend a great deal of time in the kitchen coming up with bread alternatives. I have Grain Free Sandwich …
