Finger Food
Cannellini Bean and Tomato Tarts
I LOVE making finger food. For whatever reason, making small yet delicious morsels of food to share is something I really enjoy. I’ve got an amazing selection of staple recipes that are always on rotation. But I’m also constantly trying new flavours and creating new recipes to add to the collection. These Cannellini Bean and […]
Snapper and Crab Cakes
These Snapper and Crab Cakes make me think of my dad. He has been making the original Rick Stein Crab Cake version for as long as I can remember and they are always a favourite. This version is based off his original recipe with the main seafood coming from the snapper instead of crab. And […]
Parmesan Crackers
I seriously love my cheese. All cheese. There’s no such thing as a cheese I won’t eat. And there is rarely a day when I don’t have cheese in some form or another. So it’s makes sense that I love to cook with cheese. These Parmesan Crackers tick all the boxes for me when it […]

Thai Beef Salad
I think this Thai Beef Salad might just be my new favourite salad! I was in the mood for something light and healthy, quick and easy to make and packed full of flavour. The weather was warm and a salad of sorts was really all I felt like eating. It had been a while since […]
Mexican Chicken Soup
You may have noticed I’m rather fond of simple Mexican flavours. Be it my Healthy Taco Bowl, my Chicken Fajitas or my Taco Bowl Soup I really love the flavours from that part of the world. And this Mexican Chicken Soup is a treasure to go into that category! There is so much to love […]
Quick Chicken and Corn Soup
Gosh I love discovering recipes like this quick Chicken and Corn Soup. Creating something delicious out of not much is one of my favourite ways to cook! It came about when I was trying to eat down the fridge without shopping prior to going on holidays. The fridge was looking pretty bleak by this stage. […]
Roast Pumpkin and Sage Soup
Now I have to admit something. I don’t like pumpkin. I really don’t It’s one of those vegetables that I find too sweet, especially when roasted. So it rarely makes an appearance in our house, even though hubby just loves it. However I do make a mean pumpkin soup and my Roast Pumpkin and Sage […]
