Hello for the final time from Greece
So my time in Greece is fast coming to an end, though I shall be back again when I can. Since last week’s newsletter we have done a little more exploring of the mountainous interior of Mani, I’ll update on that when I write my monthly behind the scenes email next week. But for now lets just concentrate on what’s been going on in Recipes Made Easy and Only Crumbs Remain.
At this time of the year my blackcurrant recipes become popular. This week I have updated and put together another recipe collection post, and this time for Blackcurrants. Like the other round ups I have shared recently this allows you to browse through the relevant recipes on a theme and hopefully find ones you are tempted to make regardless of which of my blogs they are on.
Being away from home I’ve no idea yet what my crop of currants will be like this year (luckily I have a friend who has volunteered to pick any that have ripened while I’m away and pop them in them in the freezer – Thank you Jane). But no doubt if its a good crop I’ll be experimenting with a few more new recipes to add to the collection. One of the great things about both red and blackcurrants is a lot of recipes can be made using frozen fruit so even if you do not grow or pick your own you can always get a bag or two of frozen currants from the supermarket to try them.
That’s all for now, I’m off for another evening swim in the last few days I can. (sorry not sorry 😂).
Until next time have a delicious week.

Salad Recipe Collection
The collection I put together last week.
Whether you're looking for a quick salad lunch fix, a show-stopping side salad for your next BBQ, or a light and healthy salad dinner option, we've got you covered.
Baked Falafel
Falafel is usually deep fried, but these baked falafel are cooked in the oven for a low fat (and easier) option.
They may be low in fat but are definitely not low in flavour, these baked falafel are served with an easy tahini sauce.
Lemon and Gin Tart
Rich and creamy with a delicous hint of gin this lemon and gin tart takes a classic lemon tart and turns it into a treat that is even more delicious.
