  • What's for dinner? is a question I sometimes dread so it's my mission to bring inspiration & easy to follow, affordable recipes to you!
    Our family of 5 includes 3 adults (I feel so strange typing that about our 18 year old son!) & 2 teenage boys of 13 & 16 who believe me can eat A LOT! It can be challenging to keep them full while providing a varied diet and not spending an absolute fortune!
    So if you are looking for ideas to keep your kids full or just some inspiration on how to make easy, budget friendly dinners then this is the channel for you 💗
    Enjoy! Vicki xx

    Hi Victoria, Great video as usual! And yes, please show more breakfast ideas as they can be very helpful especially during a busy week.🙂

    Did you know that you only need about an inch of water with the potatoes, for mash in the pressure cooker, they don't need to be covered. The water is contained and can't escape so it part steams them. Makes them still lovely for mashing but less watery. Using pressure cooker can be daunting at the start. Love your vids and meal ideas so disregard if you are happy with your own method.

      No I’m always happy to hear recommendations from people!! That’s how we learn! I just went by the recipe book that came with the pressure cooker but less water could be great especially if you want things done a bit quicker. Thank you 🥰

    Great meals. That chicken bacon & leek pie , what's not to love !! Yeah I reckon that woukd make a great lasagne filling as well. I woukd love to try a chicken in my air fryer but I don't think I would get 1 in!! Good breakfast ideas , I tend to stick yo same thing, either avocado 🥑 on toast or ryvitas, same with tuna , cheese spread, peanut butter or marmite. Occasionally have cereals just depends. Those hot cross buns do look good tho. Am partial to hot cross buns but usually I just like the plain ones ( or savory cheesey ones) but I do like salted caramel so will try these. Enjoyed this video Vicki

    I use both when cooking a chicken, I pressure cook it, then lift it out and put into the Air Fryer to crisp the skin, its even quicker. 15 on pressure cook, then 10 - 15 mins on airfry. That chicken pie would be amazing as a lasagne. Great idea with the soft pittas, we enjoy the, better than the normal ones. Great meals, thank you for sharing xxx

      You could definitely add full fat yogurt, proper butter and get the syrups that aren’t sugar free. Adding the fruit and the cinnamon made such a difference though!! Xx

    Could you please do a video about the pressure cooker please? I want to buy one but reading lots of things about it taking ages to build up pressure and again to release it so while potatoes in 8 mins is amazing it could actually take an hour. Is this true or what are your thoughts?

    • @Victoria_Foulger
      @Victoria_Foulger  6 місяців тому

      It definitely takes time to build the pressure but nowhere near an hour for mashed potatoes. I love it mainly as I can start it then go and do other things. With a pan of boiling water you have to keep an eye on it, turn it off when finished etc. it’s convenient I suppose x
