I made a pork pibl. A pork pibl is pork shoulder that is spicy and is slow cooked. It is GOOD! We started it at 9 o'clock this morning. We put the pork in the slow cooker with spices. Cumin seed Chilli powder A scotch bonnet chilli (without the seeds) Black pepper Ground allspice 2 bay leaves 2 squeezed oranges cut into 4 pieces A splash of cider vinegar 4 garlic cloves Tomato puree This afternoon I cut some cherry tomatoes. I spread the nachos about in a BIIIIIIIGGGG BOOOWWWL.  I chopped corriander which was very very intense. We sprinkled on red onion and red peppers and avocado.  Then I ripped the mozarella cheese and we had grated cheddar cheese and some jalepenos but not on all of it. Daddy cooked some sweetcorn on the BBQ and Mummy put the nachos in the oven to melt the cheese. Mummy used a fork to shred the pork and we put it on top and put it in the oven. I made a dressing. The dressing was creme fraiche which is like yoghurt. And some...

This weekend I stayed with my Grandma and Grandpa and I wanted to cook dinner for them. I made a pesto spaghetti meal which I saw in Waitrose when I went shopping with Mummy. I made the pesto out of: frozen peas chilli almonds parmesan cheese mint olive oil We stirred it into some spaghetti and I had lemon juice on it. We also had salad and for pudding I ate lots of fruit - strawberries, blueberries and raspberries. The pea pesto tasted super yummy and we had Appletiser. I am going to make this again at home for Mummy and Daddy. Thanks, bye.

Today I made burgers on my daddy's BIRTHDAY ! We used      Beef mince Shallots Egg Lots of black pepper    Tiny bit of salt.        I mixed it all together with my hands and then I made them into flat circles with a burger squasher (a burgerlater). We cooked it on the BBQ and wrapped it in lovely, tasty bacon and had brioche rolls.  My Daddy likes to have:- Jalapenos Cheddar cheese Smoky bacon Cucumber Onion and burger! And that's it! We ate the burgers with salad and tortilla chips.

At the weekend I had lots of ideas for vegetarian food. Yesterday I made vegetarian puff pastry pizzas with my sister and Ella who looks after me. I chopped all the vegetables. Tomatoes Asparagus Onions Olives Red peppers Celery Mushrooms Cucumber for me Pickled Jalapenos, For Lara I cut them up a bit smaller. I used puff pastry. I put tomato sauce on. I used tomato puree. Then I put vegetables on. We put mozzarella on the top. I told Ella to put it on once it was all cooked but we put it on before it was cooked so it melted. It also had a cheese-filled crust. We put cheddar inside and then we wrapped the pastry up. Ella put it in the oven for 10 minutes. At the end we left it to cool down for 4 minutes. It tasted really good because of the crust. It had a beautiful taste of tomatoes. A sweet cream taste of the cheese. It was healthy but also a little bit sweet.  We had it with salad. Next time I would put the mozzarella once it had cooked and cool...
