Simple & delicious Recipes.
If you’re interested in simple but delicious cooking, with quality, fresh ingredients then you have come to the right place! These recipes are easy and use regular, everyday cooking ingredients that are from local suppliers where possible.
The Food Beaver believes that cooking should be enjoyable and stress free, that’s why I aim to provide easy-to-follow recipes that will taste great and won’t cost an arm and a leg.
Seasonality is a big influence in my cooking, so I will be using fresh, in-season, local ingredients where I can.
Some of the places where I buy my ingredients will also be making an appearance in the ‘Features’ section on thefoodbeaver.com, so keep an eye out for these as I am a big believer in supporting local, independent food trade such as butchers, bakers, greengrocers and fishmongers, all of which seem to be fading fast in our ever-changing and convenience-based lifestyles.
I hope you enjoy these recipes and I would genuinely like your feedback and any suggestions you might have, so please leave your comments under the recipe posts, or simply email me at thefoodbeaver@thefoodbeaver.com.
