We've team up with vegan blogger @eatsandvinyl to bring you this delicious wild mushroom, artichoke and sweet potato salad, drizzled with truffle oil and topped with watercress and wild garlic.

Perfect for buffets, finger food or even a spring picnic, these little twists look impressive but are pretty quick to make (and pretty delicious to eat, too!). Makes 40.

Take comfort food to a new level with this luxurious risotto. It’s a fairly simple recipe that makes the most of its wonderful ingredients – a fair bit of stirring is involved, but the end result is well worth it! Serves 2

Fresh spring veg are lightly cooked then stirred into pasta, for a tasty, seasonal celebration of all things green and good! To make this into a vegan recipe, just swap the butter for an extra tbsp of oil, check the wine is vegan (if using) and leave out the cheese. Serves 4.

Flavoured with our own, locally-distilled gin, this special twist on the classic Lemon Drizzle cake is a perfect teatime treat for G&T-loving mums everywhere.

These little cheesecakes are perfect for an indulgent pudding - decorate the tops with mini-eggs, chocolate sprinkles or whatever tickles your fancy! Makes 8

A little of this goes a very long way, so it’s best served in espresso cups or tiny ramekins – fresh strawberries or raspberries are a nice accompaniment. It’s simple to make, but remember to allow several hours’ chilling time. Makes 4 small servings.

Get creative and make your very own edible work of art! The decorating is fun to do with children – you can prep and prove the dough ahead of time, if you like, so all they need to do is add the toppings before a final prove and 20 minutes’ baking time. Makes one large focaccia loaf.

If you’re a fan of our Lobster Thermidor, why not try this delicious crab-centric version? Rich, creamy and packed with flavour, it’s delicious served with fresh bread for mopping up every last bit! Serves 4 as a starter.

With a little adult help, young children can have a go at making these easy cookies – whether they enjoy weighing ingredients, rolling dough, making thumbprints or adding the Nutella and decorating, there are plenty of ways for them to get stuck in!

This delicious, savoury pie is pretty straightforward to put together (you can even make the filling ahead of time and refrigerate it until needed). Serve with salad or your favourite seasonal veg. Serves 4.
