I've been in a bit of a lull lately. A self-imposed lull. I've been battling some thyroid-related health issues for some time now. At last, I have a diagnosis of the underlying cause, but treatment is yet to commence and to be honest, after all the other things I've tried, I'm not celebrating just yet.

Yes, I'm out on a limb with this recipe. Putting fish in a lunchbox is a little dicey - there's always the risk that by lunchtime the fish smell will be overpowering not only your child but everyone else as well. Noone wants their kid to be in fishy exile for all of lunchtime! Having said that, it's not the first time I've developed a fish recipe for the lunchbox. You may remember my Tuna and … [Read more...]
