Hi and welcome to Easy Peasy Foodie!
I’m Eb – professional blogger, busy mum and passionate foodie and I’m on a mission to make cooking EASIER and MORE DELICIOUS!
I am mum to 2 small, but very vocal, food critics (age 8 and 10) and wife to one long-suffering husband, who patiently puts up with having to wait for his dinner while I insist on photographing it from every angle first! I live in Sussex, in the UK, and in my spare time I go running with my local jogging group in an attempt to ‘earn’ extra calories, so I can eat more delicious (but always easy peasy) food!
If you want…
- easy midweek dinner inspiration,
- meal planning advice (plus FREE MEAL PLANS!)

Easy Midweek Meal Ideas
Love the idea of making delicious, stress-free, family friendly food from scratch every night but don’t think it’s possible?
I’m here to tell you it’s totally possible…even on busy weeknights!
With easy to follow recipes, neat tricks and shortcuts I show how you can make great tasting food without the hassle.
Many of my recipes take less than 30 minutes to make, while others take just a few minutes prep, then I let the oven or slow cooker take over and do all the hard work. But I never stint on flavour – my recipes might be quick and easy but they seriously deliver on taste too!
My recipes are all tested and approved by my harshest critics: my two kids (aged 8 and 10), who will always give their VERY honest opinion!

Easy Entertaining
Whilst most of my cooking is the quick and easy weeknight kind, I also love throwing dinner parties for my friends.
But here’s the thing…I want to enjoy my dinner parties too! I want to hang out with my guests and eat all the delicious food and have lots of fun. I definitely DO NOT want to spend my evening stressing in the kitchen.
So I have created a whole bank of recipes that are absolutely perfect for easy entertaining. Recipes that look impressive but are actually really simple to make and recipes which can be made way in advance. Leaving you with more time to get ready for the party (or get the kids into bed, at least!).

Hi Eb,
I found your site quite by accident. I love Nando’s food and was looking for recipes to recreate them in my home. I do a lot of marinating and baking of chicken, beef, etc., mainly because my daughter had a few allergies and wanted to use a healthier form of cooking. We are Indian from the stiate of Goa, albeit resident in the very hot Persian Gulf state of Dubai. I am going to try out your fakeaway recipe and give you my feedback. I was surprised at the various Indian style dishes you have. Your repertoire is international. Going trawling now for other recipes. Will be back soon. Thank you for your wonderful site.
So pleased you like my website – that makes me very happy! Oh yes, my repertoire is very international. I just love different cultures and cuisines and love looking at traditional / authentic recipes and then adapting them to make them do-able on busy weeknights. I hope you find plenty of recipes you enjoy – do let me know what you make! Eb 🙂
