About me
A Dash Of Flavour... and a pinch of effort, a teaspoon of love along with an ounce of imagination food becomes and exciting experience.... which is why we decided to create our blog. All four of us (we are mam, dad, son and daughter) enjoy cooking and food especially enjoying new edible experiences.
Many of the recipes can be incorporated into a weight loss program, especially Weight Watchers, as I am currently on my own weight loss journey. I am also a wife, a mother, a full time trainer and assessor within the construction industry.
A Dash Of Flavour was a pipedream cookbook that I had hope I would some day publish. It has since turned to a reality through Blogger and with not only the support of my family but with their help and input also. My hustand, Noel, also loves food, cooking and experimenting. Both our children, Oliver and Alexandria are showing that they too are starting to have a passion for food and a flare for cooking which I think is brilliant considering they are both still young.
WARNING: Some recipes are definately NOT weight loss friendly and have been shared because they are just too good NOT to cook!!
We just hope you enjoy these recipes just like we do!!
Oh forgot to mention - a glass of wine here and there helps too!
Cooking Influences
I guess, for me, having two parents that were good cooks who enjoyed good food and also like experimenting in flavours are who I would have to say were my biggest influences. Both my parents are Welsh and while we ate a lot of British meals there was always Indian or Chinese on the menu. My mam even took a Chinese cooking class and my dad was a fan of slow cooking.
Noel and I influence each other.. we bring out the passion in each others cooking and we always challenge each other into trying something new, whether we are cooking it or eating out. In fact, we make a great team in the kitchen especially when entertaining for our family and friends.
As far as celebrities go, I tend to like British chefs especially Nigella Lawson, Ainsley Harriot and Jamie Oliver.
