This is barely cooking but tastes delicious and it’s so versatile. Using a really good quality tomato paste is what will transform this sauce and you all know how much I love my Turkish one 😍
I pair it with spaghetti and serve it with veggies, salad, or even roast chicken my daughter’s favorite! 🍗💯
Here’s the recipe:
2 tbsp olive oil
1 heaped tbsp Turkish tomato paste (about 75g)
1 tsp garlic purée
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp sugar
1 cup water
Cook the sauce until the oil rises to the top
Then toss in your cooked spaghetti and voila!
Quick, delicious, and kid-approved. Save this for busy weeknights!

Dumb Dinners: Creamy Crunch Taco Bake
Here’s exactly how to make it:
Creamy Crunch Taco Bake
Serves about 6
Ingredients
• 1 can crescent roll dough sheet
• 1 lb ground beef
• 1 taco seasoning packet + water listed on packet
• ½–1 cup refried beans
• ¾ cup chunky salsa
• ½ cup sour cream
• 1 cup shredded Mexican blend or cheddar
• 1 handful thick tortilla chips, crushed
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Spray an 11x7 or 9x13 baking dish. Press crescent dough into the bottom of the dish. Bake 5–6 minutes until slightly puffed. Remove from oven.
Spread a thin layer of refried beans over the crust.
Brown ground beef in a skillet until no pink remains. Drain grease.
Add taco seasoning and water from the packet. Simmer until thick, not watery.
Let meat cool 2–3 minutes, then spoon over refried beans.
Add salsa and sour cream directly into the baking dish and gently stir into the beef layer without disturbing the crust.
Sprinkle crushed tortilla chips over the top.
Cover evenly with shredded cheese.
Bake 18–22 minutes until cheese is bubbly and edges are golden.
Let rest 5–10 minutes before slicing.

STEAK, CARAMELISED ONION & SPICY MAYO SANDWICH
Perfect weekend dinner & all within my calories for the day at 623 for my sandwich
Steaks:
- 2 steaks of choice (I use fillet)
- Salt and pepper
For the bread:
- 2 sainsburys half ciabatta bread
- Handful rocket
- 2 sliced onions
- 2 slices spicy cheese
- 10g Parmesan
Recipe for spicy mayo:
- 30g light mayo
- 10g sriracha
- tsp wholegrain mustard
- tsp cajun seasoning
Fry the onions until softened / caramelised.
Whilst that cooks, cook your steak. We like our steak medium rare, so i cook them for 3 mins each side. Then leave to rest.
Once done, slice the baguettes add some of the spicy mayo, top with the onions, lay on the cheese & then bake in the oven for 5-6 mins until the cheese has melted.
Then add the steak on top, along with rocket and Parmesan.
We had ours with air fryer chips.
