What are your plans this August bank holiday weekend? It’s a great time for making plans and spending time with loved ones. But sometimes you need to relax and enjoy the break. Spending time at home and indoors can be just as rewarding. You can take this time to master one of your favourite dishes and really get into the spirit of cooking to create something tasty and comforting. If you do decide to try your hand at cooking, then you will have an endless amount of choices to fill up your bank holiday with!

Decide what you fancy creating, you can use a recipe book for inspiration. You may decide to try a sweet or savoury dish, but why not try both? If you really get stuck in then you could have a homemade dish each day! Cooking is also a great chance to invite friends and family over to enjoy the food with you, so you get to share your scrumptious skills with those you love. What do you like to cook?

Baking fever always tends to heat up around this time of year now that The Great British Bake Off is back, it can be quite impressive and inspirational to see their creations! You can keep up with all of the baking gossip on twitter #GBBO.
