These are perfect for Mother’s Day and amazing for kids lunchboxes or as healthy toddler snack AND they freeze really well.
For Mums on Mother’s Day, it is so lovely for your little one to bring you up one of these in bed, served with fresh cream and strawberry jam. Mine always included their little homemade card and flower from our garden. It’s so simple but to them and me, it meant everything 💛

Watch our Simply Better brand ambassador @nevenmaguire prepare this delicious Irish Strawberry & Lemon Tart using our new Simply Better Irish King Strawberries from Clarke’s Fresh Fruit. Find the full recipe below:
Ingredients (Serves 8) 500ml Simply Better Single Source Irish Jersey Cream 1 Jar Simply Better Sicilian Lemon Curd 250g Simply Better Irish King Strawberries, sliced 50g Pistachios For the Sweet Shortcrust Pastry 175g Plain Flour 100g Butter, diced and chilled 50g Caster Sugar Pinch of Salt 1 Simply Better Free Range Corn Fed Egg ½ Tbsp. Simply Better Organic Irish Jersey Milk Zest of ½ Lemon
Method 1. To make the pastry, place the flour, butter, sugar and salt into a food processor and blend for 20 seconds. Add the egg, milk and lemon zest and blend again just until the pastry comes together – do not overwork the dough or the pastry will be tough. Wrap in cling film and chill for 1 hour. 2. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F/Gas Mark 4). 3. Roll the pastry out thinly on a lightly floured work surface. Transfer the pastry to a 23cm (9in) fluted loose bottomed flat tin ensuring the pastry is pushed into the edges of the tin. Transfer to the freezer for 10 minutes to firm up. 4. Remove the tart tin from the freezer. Line the pastry with baking parchment and fill with baking beans or rice. Bake for about 15 minutes or until the pastry is firm, then remove the beans or rice and cook for about 5 minutes more, until golden brown. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely. 5. Whip the jersey cream in a bowl until you achieve soft peaks then fold in the lemon curd. Pour the lemon cream into the cooled pastry case. Arrange the sliced strawberries on top and scatter over the pistachio nuts. Keep chilled until ready to serve.
RECIPE ⬇️ Healthy Tropical Ice Cream 🍨🍍🥭🌴🥥 Follow @babyledfeeding for easy summer recipes that are great for babies AND busy families too.
The ice cream is so creamy, the way ice cream should be. All of the ingredients are from your local @dunnesstores – and if you get a chance try the new Mango yogurt drink. It is so delicious and a great way to get live cultures into kids during the summer months.
350g Bag Frozen Pineapple (or fresh) Cream from 1 can full fat coconut milk (keep in the fridge for 2 hours) 1 tsp vanilla extract (optional) 500ml Mango Yogurt drink (or natural yogurt) Juice 1 lemon
1 fresh mango 1/2 tsp turmeric
4 tbsp desiccated coconut (optional but worth it!)
Add the pineapple, coconut cream (keep the milk for another recipe), vanilla, 3/4 of the mango drink (375ml) and lemon juice to a food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour into a freezer proof dish.
Cut the mango flesh and add to a blender with the turmeric and the remaining mango yogurt drink, then blend until it is a vibrant yellow.
Pour over the coconut and pineapple mixture and use the back of a spoon to swirl it around.
Freeze for around 4 hours or until it is set
Add the coconut an oven dish and airfry at 180ºC/350ºF for 5 minutes. It browns really quickly so check it often. Stir and cool.
Creamy Chicken & Spinach Pasta | I love recipes that come with a dash of nostalgia and this one never fails to deliver. In what now feels like another life, I was in a band with my Swedish pal Jonathan and, while staying at his place, I picked up this great recipe from his family. Ingredients from @dunnesstores 💛
Serves: 4 Time: 30 mins
300g tagliatelle 1 tbsp olive oil A knob of butter 400g skinless chicken breasts, sliced into thick strips 3 garlic cloves, peeled and finely chopped 50g ready-to-use sun-dried tomatoes 150g baby spinach leaves 250ml single cream Parmesan shavings, to serve Basil leaves, to serve Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1. Cook the pasta according to the instructions on the packet. Heat the butter and olive oil in a large frying pan and, when foaming, fry the chicken for about 4–6 minutes or until cooked through. Season with salt and pepper before adding the garlic, sun-dried tomatoes, spinach and fry until the spinach has wilted. 2. Add the cream and bring to a steady simmer for 3–4 minutes. Once the pasta is cooked, drain and add to the sauce. Toss well and serve straightaway with some fresh basil leaves & Parmesan shavings.6d
