Buckwheat crepes from Canal House Every Day
I adapted the recipe to be gluten free by using all buckwheat flour instead of the mix suggested. They are still a great consistency and just as delicious as the wheat versions. These are really quick and easy to prepare, and if you are in a real push you can skip the resting time and they will still turn out. It's as simple as combining 1.5 cups of buckwheat flour, 1.5 cups of water and 3 eggs, mixing until smooth and then pouring onto a warm frying pan. Cook for a few minutes until they look about right.
My favourite topping is some grated cheddar cheese (added to the crepe while still warm on the pan so it melts), mustard and fresh rocket. Also can be made into a dessert by putting a small amount of home-made chocolate (see this post for tips), letting it melt and spreading all over. Tastes very delicious and decadent.

Super Crispy Roast Chicken from It's All Good
This has been a Sunday night favourite. I buy my chicken from Ginger Pig via Hubbub or from Meat N16. This is another super simple recipe that tastes amazing. All you need to do is clean the chicken, rub butter/coconut oil, salt and pepper on both sides, stuff with half a lemon and garlic, and pop in the oven for 1.5 hours, basting every 30 min. The best tip is at the end, add half a cup of boiling water to the pan and scrape up all the delicious roasted bits to make a kind of gravy. Pour this over the chicken meat to serve.
Coconut Butter from I Quit Sugar
This recipe makes you feel like a magician. You take a bag of shredded coconut, put it in your food processor or high-powered blender, and let it mix on high for about 10 - 15 minutes, scraping down as needed. After this time it will turn into a really creamy liquid that you can then pop in the fridge. It tastes amazing, a truly creamy coconut treat!
