Banana and Muesli Cookies  It was a huge moment for friends of ours when their Dwarf Lady Finger Banana Plant, which they had been growing in their backyard for a while now, finally produced beautiful bananas.   They very kindly gave us a whole hand of these cute lady finger bananas. Interesting to know, is that this type of banana plant grows quickly but bares fruit between 15 to 18 months.   The bananas are deliciously sweet, have thin skin and grows to about 10cm in length. Bananas are a favourite fruit in our home. When bananas ripen too quickly, it’s a perfect opportunity for me to use them in a recipe and whip up a treat. Bananas are really versatile.   Please check out my previous blog titled Blissful Banana Tart , where I share with you the health benefits of bananas.   Here is a recipe for a batch of healthy and tasty Banana and Muesli Cookies. These Banana and Muesli Cookies are the perfect breakfast cookies when you on the go and there is no time

 Stuffed Sweet Paprikas Millions of people all over the world have been forced by the unprecedented times of the COVID-19 epidemic to slow down their pace in life for some time, by living under various lock down regulations. Like these millions of people staying at home, I too have had to look at ways to keep myself occupied and also happy. So, amongst the things I have been doing, is a lot of baking and cooking, after all we have to eat. My kitchen is my happy place. It has been loads of fun cooking and baking, then clicking photos and sharing recipes with family and friends over social media. These lock down days have seriously brought about the creative side in many individuals, which is pleasing to know.  It has been exciting to attempt a few different but interesting and delicious meals with the limited ingredients available. Whilst shopping for essential fresh produce, these beautiful, large, coloured sweet paprikas were purchased and brought home to cheer me up. Th
