A fantastically easy Friday night (or any other night) dinner idea - these chicken fajitas make everyone happy! It amazes me to watch the kids happily scoff onions, peppers and lots of salad leaves - even though it can be a battle to get them to eat them in other dishes!!

Also, the kids will eat all the veg in a stir fry. I think it’s that crunchy element. If I served them steamed/boiled carrots, they’ll eat them grudgingly, but quickly stir-fried carrot?

There’s enough of the sauce to coat the noodles, chicken and veggies, without having a pool of sauce at the bottom, making everything soggy....

What is the best way to warm up tortillas for tacos?

This is one of those recipes I’ve tweaked over time. The first version I published back in 2015 was made healthier than your average copycat takeaway with the addition of lots of broccoli and mangetout (snow peas). I’ve got to admit, I leave the veg out now.As much as I like shoehorning a few extra veg into our meals, I feel the beautiful steak and sweet-salty sauce in this stir fry just needs to be enjoyed in its own right....

And frittatas are especially fun to make because you can use up whatever ingredients you happen to have on hand. This egg white frittata is so fluffy and delicious.

So it was much to my surprise to learn that elderberries grow wild all along the American River, less than half a mile from my home. We moved to Sacramento when I was nine; I have spent countless summers catching minnows and picking blackberries at the river. I can’t believe these elderberries have been there the whole time, right in front of me! Foraging For Wild Elderberries Picking them can be a challenge, given the star thistles that poke through your jeans, constant vigilance for ticks (I really don’t like those) and rattlesnakes (have had a couple close encounters with those at the river)....

I actually eat this all year round, especially with BBQs and with meaty Greek dishes like crispy pork gyros or this Greek lamb traybake. Eaten on its own, straight out of the pan for lunch is perfectly acceptable too....
