"This dish comes together so easily, and is the perfect weeknight dinner for a busy family. You can pretty much have this on the table within 45 minutes, less if you pre chop the onions and garlic. You can also make this in advance and reheat it. It's a perfect make-ahead meal."

Featured Recipe | Cardamom Pear Muffins from food.baby.life #SecretRecipeClub #recipe #muffins #breakfast

"These muffins were absolutely delicious. The cardamom added a complexity of flavour that I wasn't expecting yet it wasn't overpowering, probably because it was paired with cinnamon and nutmeg (and the clove that I added because I love it)."
