One of my (many) favourite foodie things is nut and seed butters. Their lusciousness and buttery ways never cease to excite my palette. I love they way when adorned on top of hot dishes such as warmed oats, pancakes or hot toast they ooze and melt with their sexy oils waywardly. I also love ...
These lemon & tahini protein balls are a refreshing break from the standard chocolate flavoured protein balls. Not that there is anything wrong with chocolate flavoured protein balls of course, it’s just that sometimes our taste buds need a bit of a mix up. Personally I love the flavour of citrus in sweets, so ...
I’ve been making and sharing with you a lot of cookies lately. For a while there it was muffins, but it seems cookies have stolen the limelight. The reason I think I find cookies so enticing is that they diverse and easily transportable like a muffin, but they are also a small snack that ...
Everyone loves nachos and these Dairy Free Nachos are no exception. I don’t think I have met anyone to this day who doesn’t like nachos. Nachos became part of my repertoire in my years at uni (studying visual arts) when I was first out of high school. In those days I followed a vegan ...
Besides my tahini addiction, I have another addiction that needs a good fix at least once to twice a week. Sweet potato wedges. To get more specific, these sesame seed & turmeric sweet potato wedges. Dear god they are amazing. I love them baked until they start to turn a dark brown on the edges. ...
This recipe for sunflower choc chip cookies was actually at the time of writing adapted from Belle Gibson’s recipe. Yes, that Belle Gibson. I’ve decided not to update the blog post because I think its a good representation of how the entire community was pulled into this story. I have chosen to feature this recipe ...
I first feel in love with risottos when my love for Jamie Oliver bloomed. Jamies cookbooks were some of my first. Devouring each page of his books exposed me to the world of risottos and all that they could encompass. I swooned over his recipes of oozy risottos filled with earthy mushrooms and goats ...
I’m a pancake fan from way back. As a matter of fact, pancakes were the first recipe I managed to successfully create in the kitchen as a wee sprout. As a young girl with spatula in hand I was often given the task on weekends of ‘pancake duties’ for my family, and especially for ...
I love a good muesli bar. A muesli bar with some real texture, some nuttiness and some natural sweetness. The problem with most packaged muesli bars is that they are loaded with sugars and often use cheap and refined oils. Making your own like these gluten free muesli bars is super easy and creates ...
This roast vegetable pesto salad with hot smoked salmon was created from one of those ‘what’s left in the fridge that I can throw together’ moments. Ironically, often I find this is when some of the tastiest dishes end up being created in my kitchen. I am definitely a fan of roasting vegetables, or anything ...
