00Slow Cooker Lemon Meringue FudgeChocolate,Lemons, Meringue, fudge ....what's not to like? With just 4 ingredients this is one of the simplest easy fudge recipes that you can get. The subtle lemon flavour offsets the sweetness of the white chocolate. It's a soft set fudge so is best kept in the fridge to keep it from being too sticky, but you could coat it in a little icing sugar or wrap it in a greaseproof paper casing to enable you to hold it without getting sticky fingers. The step by step pictures give you a handy guide on how to make it so its a good one for the children to try out.

00Yoghurt & Berry Frozen BitesBitesize pieces of frozen yoghurt and fruit are sweet and fresh and great on a hot summer day. A bit of nostalgia here as my Mum did these as treat for after lunch when we were children, as well as making other homemade icelollies with diluting juice etc. it's recently became trendy with dieters and fitness experts as it's so easy and has few ingredients. No cooking involved so this makes them a great one for the kids to do. The fun part is eating them before they melt all over your fingers but you could be really smart and put a lolly stick through them and make your own icelollies. The toppings can be anything you choose and you can layer them up too. I used frozen berries and chocolate buttons but its totally upto you. Its also a great way of using up yoghurt you find in the reduced section of the supermarket. The step by step guide is easy to follow so why not give this a try and let us know how you get on.

00Teriyaki Glazed Spare RibsSpare ribs are a great bbq staple but if your not lucky enough to have a bbq don't despair as there's still an easy way to do them using your slow cooker. I've used some single short ribs which you often find going cheap at the butchers counter but this would work just as well for a rack of ribs just adjust the cooking time a bit.I've seared them first as I'm a great believer in searing the meat to give it flavour but you don't have to do that. You can just place them straight in your slow cooker and you will still get great results. The Teriyaki glaze is lovely but you can just use your favourite bbq sauce instead. The step by step guide will help you to make a yummy meal thats full flavoured, tangy and sweet with just a hint of chilli.

00Beef Teriyaki Stir FryA Stir fry is a speedy dish that is full of flavour and can be as varied as your imagination.The high heat you are using to cook it lends well to a variety of vegetables that you may not normally eat all at the same time. Its also a good way to use up bits of veg that are languishing in the fridge.So I used a stir fry pack but added onions and spinach. I used rump steak as again it's quick to cook and full flavoured. I cook the steak and then add to the veg for the final minutes as it means I'm not overcooking the meat and making it dry, but feel free to add it along with your veg if you wish.The Teriyaki sauce is tangy and sweet and a little goes a long way as it can take all the colour out of the vibrant veg and you end up with a brown stew.The step by step guide means you can follow along but do feel free to add your own touches too.
