AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @p AD - Press Trip | I had such a great weekend at @pottersresortsfivelakes with @slwilson84. It was an action packed three nights with a full activity and entertainment programme, great food, lovely drinks and beautiful surroundings. 

The staff go above and beyond to make everyone feel at home and they ensure that everyone has the best time possible. I don’t think I stopped smiling all weekend.

The best thing about Potters holidays is that everything is included in the price you pay. Four meals a day, all your drinks - including wine, Prosecco, most spirits and soft drinks - great accommodation and so many activities. 

I’ll write a full review soon but for now here’s a little Reel of our weekend
I always have a lot of questions about accommodati I always have a lot of questions about accommodation when we stay anywhere as a family so I thought I’d share this little tour of our room at @windjammerlanding which was a pretty perfect place to stay.

It’s the ‘Ocean View Two Bedroom’ which was like a little house, with an upstairs and downstairs, built into the hillside. Both rooms had outdoor space and their own shower rooms. Such a great option for a family.

And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is And just like that, Athena is 12! What a joy it is watching her grow and what a wonderful young woman she is becoming. We could not be more proud. Love you Pickle, have a great birthday.
We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in S We’ve just got back from two glorious weeks in St Lucia staying at @windjammerlanding and it was just the holiday we needed. Two weeks of sunshine and relaxation in what must be one of the most beautiful islands in the world. 

We can’t wait to go back again in the future. Here’s just a little snippet of our trip.
AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @na AD - Press Tickets | We had such a nice day at @national_motor_museum despite the rain! The children loved the Little Beaulieu play area and we loved exploring the National Motor Museum and Top Gear exhibit before having a ride on the monorail! We went on an old open topped bus, explored the Beaulieu Manor House and loved the gardens. 
Beaulieu is always a great day out - whatever the weather. This summer they have a whole ‘Summer of Fun’ planned, with activities most days - parades, bird shows and hundreds of sculptures within the grounds too. If you’re looking for a day out this summer definitely think about heading to Beaulieu.
AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to t AD - Press Tickets | Tonight we took the kids to their first concert - but it was so much more than just a concert! @abbavoyage is incredible. With CGI ABBA and a live band, it’s like being at an ABBA concert 40 years ago but with modern lighting, effects and sound. ABBA look and sound real, it’s a mind blowing experience.
The set includes all the songs you know and love as well as a few less familiar ones.
You can’t take photos during the show which actually made a refreshing change. A whole arena focused purely on the show and soaking up the moment. It’s definitely something the four of us will always remember.
Now, I’m off to sing Dancing Queen all the way home.
AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdo AD - Press Trip | We had such a great day at @phdockyard today. They have a fantastic Ultimate Explorer ticket that lets you visit all the attractions as many times as you like for 12 months - and after a day at Portsmouth Historic Dockyard we can see that you need more than one day to really do everything!

We explored HMS Warrior, HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Exhibition - which is incredible! We also saw where ships are built and restored and spent time in Action Stations where the kids climbed and did an assault course.

Portsmouth Historic Dockyard is such a fun, educational day out with something for all ages - we can’t wait to go on their harbour tours next time we visit!

Omelette Maker from Aldi Ambiano Review

Disclosure: We were sent the featured products for the purpose of this post however all opinions are my own.

This post contains affiliate links and I may receive commission if you visit a link and buy something. Purchasing via an affiliate link doesn’t cost you any extra, and I only recommend products and services I trust.

I love trying out new kitchen gadgets and small kitchen appliances and Aldi sent us their electric Omelette Maker to review. I never even knew that omelette makers existed so I was looking forward to seeing how it worked and whether it would fill a gap in our kitchen gadget lives.

How easy is the Aldi Omelette Maker to use?

The Aldi Ambiano Omelette Maker is incredibly easy to use. It comes with the Ambiano omelette maker manual which couldn’t be simpler to understand. If you’ve lost yours, you can find a copy online here. You literally brush it with oil, plug it in and wait for it to heat up. Then you fill it with your favourite omelette mixture.

It comes with a handful of recipes to get you started and I’ve written a post of our favourite omelette maker recipes too. You can use the basis is two eggs for each omelette you make – four eggs to fill the omelette cooker. Then just include whatever ingredients you want to add – ours often include plenty of cheese!

The omelet maker takes just a couple of minutes to heat up. It has a light indicator on the top to let you know when it’s ready. Once the mixture is inside it takes roughly ten minutes for the omelettes to be cooked. As long as you oil the machine first the omelettes slide out without any problems once cooked. They look beautifully golden brown too.

Why should you get an Aldi Ambiano Omelette Maker?

This is a great way of making healthy lunches. You can make lunch tailored to anyone’s diet or appetite and you can make one or two omelettes at a time. You can use low fat cooking spray instead of oil and can make vegetarian or meat filled omelettes.

It really is a handy, simple to use machine that can revolutionise your lunch times. You can make any omelette maker recipes in it.

This cheap omelette maker can also be used to poach eggs but we haven’t used this facility. We just love the omelette option too much! I love that I can make my lunch in less than 15 minutes. Plus, I have ten minutes to potter around whilst it’s cooking, giving me a beautifully cooked omelette every time.

Are there any negatives of the Omelette Maker Aldi version?

The only downside to the omelette maker is that it is wipe clean only. You cannot take the non stick cooking plates off to clean them. However, we’ve been using a damp cloth to clean it. Because the non-stick plates work so well, and we oil the plates each time we use it, it has been quite easy to clean.

Before Aldi introduced me to the Ambiano Omelette Maker I didn’t know it was even a thing. But, I love omelettes and just don’t eat them enough. They have now turned into my go-to quick and nutritious food option for lunch.

I cannot wait to try out more flavour combinations – and even add a side salad too! The omelettes made with this maker are so much nicer than when we’ve used a microwave omelette maker in the past. They are so much firmer around the edges than a microwave omelette. It’s just like having an omelette from a frying pan!

I can’t say that the ambiano omelette maker is the best omelette maker as it’s the only one we’ve tried. But as far as an omelette machine is concerned we couldn’t be happier. It’s well worth investing in and it’s perfect for us. I hope you’ve found this omelette maker review useful.

The Aldi Ambiano Omelette Maker has an RRP of £12.99 and if you’re looking for the omelette maker instructions or user manual you can find them here. I’ve also written about the Aldi Ambiano Nutrient Blender and the Ambiano Churro Maker too.

    How did I not know these things existed?! I make the worst omelettes ever, they always look like scrambled egg. For £12.99, I’m definitely going to buy one of these.

    Haha nope, this is totally fixing something that isn’t broken. Happy with a non-stick frying pan that you can shove in the dishwasher!

        I’ve never even thought to make food like this at work. It would feel such a luxury! I usually just take a salad or sandwich.

    I’ve only eaten omelette a handful of times, for some reason it’s just not something I ever make. I’d be curious to try something like this out though, sounds like it makes the whole process pretty foolproof! x

    Great Kitchen Tool.
    We’ve just had omelettes at my sister in laws today with this appliance.
    It was perfect did ours in 8 minutes.
    I am going to see if I can see if I can buy one in store.

    Just got this yesterday from Aldi (only £8.99, don’t you love a bargain)and yes it made lovely tasty omelettes. Not sure how I have gone through life without it lol.
    I love omelettes but hated the mess afterwards and could never turn them successfully in the frying pan.
    This makes it so much easier. Would definitely recommend

    Can anyone tell me if the lid is quite loose or should it click into place. Wondering if I’ve got a faulty one

      No, it’s quite loose. It doesn’t click into place like a sandwich toaster, just closes to cover the base

    Hi I love my Ambiano omelette maker, but the non stick coating is coming off all over my food, which is pitting me off ever buying a new one. I have always sprayed the device and wiped clean with kitchen roll.

      I’ve never had this problem – my non stock is still absolutely fine even years later. I’d contact Aldi.
