Daddy cooks with M Savers
My hubby is not the best cook in the world but he can do quite good sometimes. He makes the best steak and potato pie! After we shopped at Morrisons he decided that he should also give the MSavers recipes a chance. Also he really enjoy eating the Meatballs in tomato sauce with spaghetti that i cooked thank to the recipes on Morrisons website.So last week he decided to make burgers. This is not a MSavers recipe but the ingredients he used were from the MSavers range and he used the method shown on Morrisons website.

Bean and tomato spread
The Romanian translation would be Zacusca de fasole. You see my family – hubby and boogie – don’t like aubergines so even if traditionally this spread is made with them I thought I should give it a try to the beans one. Well my idea came last weekend when we visited our dear Romanian friends for New Year. My friend Ioana had a jar of shop bought zacusca and I loved it! I think I end up eating the whole thing myself. So…I decided to google the recipe and give it a try and cook it. All the Romanian blog sites are full of ideas and different ingredients for this…
