Another great idea from Cooking Without Limits. I might be tempted to try this with some frothy milk which I make in the van with a battery-operated, milk frother https://www.amazon.co.uk/Ventuci-VENTUCI-Premium-Milk-Frother/dp/B01M4QIK4B/ref=sr_1_12?ie=UTF8&qid=1494235615&sr=8-12&keywords=hand+whisk+battery

LUSCIOUS LUNCHES: Girona Salad

Just wanted to share a Luscious Lunch that I made today for Glyn and I from bits and pieces that I had in the house already.

Campervan Shows: Cooking Demo, Special Vans and Gorgeous Smells at The Harrogate Motorhome Show, Yorkshire

Last Weekend, Glyn and I went north to beautiful Yorkshire as I was giving a campervan cooking demo at The Harrogate Motorhome Show. There were some unusual vehicles at the show and we inevitably bought new bits of kit for the van at the stalls. We arrived a couple of days early to explore the area a bit first and really enjoyed our day in Harrogate (serious cake as you will see later)….

When I am working at home I try to cook myself a lunch which let’s me try out ideas for my campervan cookbooks. Some are best forgotten but some turn out ‘luscious’ and I’d like to share this luscious one with you: ‘The Nicoise Power bowl’
