Chocolate Brownie recipe
I’ve never been much of a baker (as you’ll see from the amount of desserts that appear on FitBrits.com), so I decided to give chocolate brownies a go.

After looking at a few chocolate brownie recipes, the ingredients seems pretty standard. However, one thing I don’t stand for when cooking is FAFF! “Sift the flour, fold in the flour, make a well for the eggs – blah, blah, blah”!  I was under the impressions these were supposed to be easy to make!?

It’s all going in the same place after all, so I just chucked everything into the bowl and mixed, and you know what, the outcome wasn’t that bad either! Literally, just chuck everything into a mixing bowl (after melting the butter and chocolate) and mix thoroughly.

Siftings for time-wasters – so check out my Chocolate Brownie Recipe on FitBrits.com!

Yorkshire Pudding Recipe
Winters on it’s way and I thought it was about time I added a Yorkshire Pudding Recipe to FitBrits.com

You really can tell the difference between shop bought and homemade Yorkshire Puddings, and whats more, this Yorkshire Pudding Recipe is really easy to make.

All you need to do is make a simple batter and cook them in the oven for just the right amount of time at just the right temperature.

Check out the recipe here and why not leave a Facebook comment on the recipe page.

Flapjack Recipe
I hope you’ve all had a great weekend, the weather has certainly been phenomenal to say the least.

It’s been a busy weekend in the FitBrits kitchen too, not only have we been perfecting our Gourmet Pizza Recipe, we’ve also tried, tested and uploaded a great Flapjack Recipe to FitBrits.com

The recipe came from a good friend over in South Africa (where they call a flapjack a crunchie), the only missing ingredient is something called ProNutro which is a fortified cereal originally made to help against malnutrition in babies.  The good thing is you can’t really tell the difference without it, and even better, this Flapjack recipe is dead easy to make. It’s literally a case of throwing everything in a bowl, cooking, then enjoy!

We hope you’ll try it and let us know what you think of it on Facebook, you can leave a comment at the bottom of the Flapjack Recipe page.

Turkey and Spinach Lasagna RecipeLasagne is a great, wholesome dinner that 9/10 times leaves you feeling pretty satisfied afterwards. However, it can also be pretty unhealthy as a consequence.

Even if we were to switch to the extra lean variety of beef mince, this still has about 4.5g of fat per 100g, about half of which is likely to be saturated. So my suggestion: switch to turkey mince!

You’ll want to chose the Turkey breast mince as it is sometimes available in thigh mince version also (which is slightly higher in fat).  The rules are then simple, just add the turkey when you would have added the beef and cook as normal, you’ll also be surprised at how turkey mince doesn’t dry out half as much.

So, if you’re looking for a lasagne recipe try our FitBrits Turkey and Spinach Lasagne recipe and if you feel like experimenting even further, why not try this Chilli con Carne recipe which also works great with ground turkey.

Sometimes I get ‘eating block’ when I’m struggling for inspiration at the supermarket. I want to try something new but there’s a debate going on between my stomach and my head!

Stomach says “Just buy it and feed me”, head says “Well hang on, how can I make this more interesting to eat?”

So before you start going mad down a supermarket isle, it’s worth remembering that you can jazz most things up with pre-prepared breadcrumbs, yes, plain-old breadcrumbs!

So you’ve bought a plain chicken breast, salmon fillet, piece of pork or a bag of white fish and you don’t know what to do next, well, you can bread them. Simply have 3 separate bowls with one of the following in each:

  • Flour
  • Egg
  • Breadcrumbs

Dip your piece of meat/fish in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs and cook in the oven – simple! If that’s not enough, it tastes even better if you mix a little chilli powder (or other herb of your choice) in the breadcrumbs.

FitBrits.com already has two great breaded recipes which are really quick and easy to make. So why not check out our recipe for Homemade Fish and Chips and our Chicken Nuggets Recipe and let us know how you get on through Facebook.
