The Magical Recipe Tree

Welcome

The idea for storing my most used recipes online came after a period of having my recipes and cookbooks tucked away in storage. The ease and convenience of having them available at the push of an internet button was simply to good to resist! As much as I love cooking and experimenting in the kitchen, I didn't create the majority of recipes on this site, I merely love to use them, but I'll attempt to document every recipe I know the origin of.
As a pescetarian, the selection of recipes will reflect this- but there will still be a few family recipes included from my pre-pesc years... though I aim to convert these to pesc-friendly dishes at some stage!
