Yes it’s muffin time again! It seem the muffin love isn’t waning at all in my house with muffins the most popular snack request. This week’s flavour request was for Apple Raspberry Mini Muffins. Thankfully that was doable with the ingredients in the house and they are incredibly delicious! As usual, they are relatively healthy […]
Creamy Broccoli Salad
At this time of year, salads really become my thing. I love how quick and easy they are – perfect for mid week meals. And there is just so much you can do with your salads! They can be one bowl meals or an accompaniment to the main part of the meal. They can be […]
Pork Larb Salad
I love a good salad for dinner. To me, it’s the ultimate bowl food. But i’s got to be tasty. None of this ‘bowl of rabbit tucker and that’s a salad’ for me. I like flavour and texture in my salads and this Pork Larb Salad hits it out of the park. It’s spicy, it’s […]
Chicken with Broccolini Haloumi Macadamias and Mint
I love quick and easy food that packs a flavour punch. To me there’s nothing better than eating a meal that sings in your mouth and hasn’t required a massive effort to cook. This Chicken with Broccolini Haloumi Macadamias and Mint dish is one such recipe. It’s a meal that can be described as Spring […]
Kale and Sausage Pasta
This kale and sausage pasta dish came about almost by accident. When I started cooking, I was planning a completely different pasta dish, something full of bacon and kale with loads of Parmesan and a rich creamy sauce.

Warm Quinoa Cauliflower and Kale Salad

Chickpea Apple and Peanut Butter Cookies
Every now and then I am motivated to make some home made snacks for my girls. Generally, they both eat really well. But I sometimes feel the need to balance out the convenience of packaged food with something I have made. We all know it can be tricky feeding small people when out and about, […]

These kids bliss balls are a perfect sweet treat for a fussy child. Full of natural goodness they taste like a treat but are in fact, quite healthy for them. They are a fantastic addition to a lunchbox or as a post school or daycare snack. Even one on the plate with dinner can be […]
Barramundi with Ginger Broth and Green Veg
I can tell that the weather has cooled lately just by the food I have been cooking and dreaming about. Gone are the salads and stir frys of warmer weather and in have come soups, stews and warming comfort food. There’s nothing better than tucking into a bowl of tasty goodness that warms from the […]
Broccolini Soup
I was out tidying the vegetable garden yesterday after neglecting it for a week. There was an armful of tomatoes, a few zucchini and more broccolini than I could’ve imagined! The broccolini was ready to flower so needed to be picked and used. Given the cooler weather at the moment, a Broccolini Soup seemed the […]
