In a new feature for Nub News, we have teamed up with Brazilian-born Bianca Rodrigues-Perry to share a new monthly recipe with our readers.

The self-taught chef and foodie from Leamington, is also the face of Bia's Kitchen Show, being streamed to audiences on YouTube, Spotify, Instagram and Facebook.

The show, launched earlier this year, aims to champion local independent businesses with many restaurateurs and chefs taking guest spots.

And to launch our new feature, Bia has shared a chocolate treat in time for Easter!
