The weekend is finally here and we are back to our normal schedules, so make a quick stop at your grocery shop, grab the ingredients for these recipes below!

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and it wouldn’t be breakfast if it wasn’t a scrumptious, filling start to your day. Make these super-fruit toasties for Saturday breakfast and add an extra boost to your day.

We all know around 11 AM the hunger games in your belly start to set in. These mixed nut tartlets are the ideal sweet and crunchy snacks to munch on, especially if you find yourself busy this weekend.

Nothing beats a braai on the weekend. Put this lamb roll braai pie together at this weekend’s braai and leave your guests amazed at your culinary skills.

Or if you’re not in the mood to braai why not throw together this mushroom and beef short rib ragu tagliatelle. Serve it with a good bottle of red wine and you’re good to go.

We’ve always got our vegan and veggie lovers covered and this week, you can look forward to leek, mushroom and tomato tartlets. Serve with a freshly made salad or even potato wedges.

Weekends are the perfect time to indulge in all types of comfort food like some delicious home baked goods and these triple chocolate brownies are definitely top of the list when it comes to comfort food.

It ain’t the weekend without a bit of pasta, enjoy this macaroni and cheese cake that is filled with delicious bacon, chorizo and lots of cheese. It can be eaten for lunch or dinner – the choice is yours.

And since we have the time to actually bake, how about baking these beautiful lemon and pistachio cupcakes as a treat for the whole house? You can also make it fun and get the kids to help you.
