The perfect combination of avaocado, coriander (cilantro), tomato, onion, chili, and lime that’s super chunky and super easy to make. Whoa! I’m sitting at my computer right now, not really knowing what to write. It’s all feeling a little foreign right now. Not only has it been soooooooo long since my last post (sorry folks),…

Orange, Spinach and Pine Nut Salad
A delicious and quick salad for winter that is the perfect combination of sweet, bitter and crunchy. Great alongside a homemade pizza or big bowl of pasta! I call this my SUNSHINE SALAD! I know, it’s a little cheesy but at the end of winter it’s so nice to have this bright little salad…
Chai Spiced Buckwheat Porridge with Maple Roasted Pears
I’m on a bit of a buckwheat buzz this week! Fluffy buckwheat pancakes on Thursday now buckwheat porridge today. It’s a complete coincidence but it’s a good thing because it turns out this little thing called buckwheat not only tastes awesome it’s pretty darn good for you too. What is buckwheat? Despite it’s name buckwheat…
Rachel’s Tomato, Pork and Fennel Soup
This is seriously one of the yummiest soups ever and it’s all thanks to my darling friend Rachel. I really want to claim this as my own but to my detriment I am such a goody-good and too scared of being hammered for plagiarism plus I kinda like my friend, just a little, so I…
Winter Witlof and Walnut Salad
Winter salads. Yes friends. It’s a thing. It’s a thing when you’ve been enjoying all that warming winter comfort food in your big woolly socks and big jumpers but you need a little crunchy freshness.

Roasted Sweet Potato with Chipotle Mayo
Who would have boys? In the past month I have visited the emergency department at the hospital twice, accident and emergency clinic once, and the local GP clinic twice.

Easy Roasted Tomato and Garlic Soup
I’m not quite sure why I chose to do a post on soup. Easy(!) Roasted Tomato and Garlic Soup with creamy Creme Fraiche and Pesto to be exact. While this recipe is delicious, easy and a perfect weeknight dinner or lunch in the winter I’m stuck for what to write because, well, come on?! It’s…
Oven Baked Risotto with Saffron and Chorizo
I love spending time in the kitchen making risotto, I find it so relaxing but that endeavour is without doubt a weekend pursuit. During the week, after a long day, kids screaming at me for dinner and the cat racing around under my feet (I think purposefully) trying to trip me up the last thing…
Roasted Cauliflower with Tahini Sauce
Are you obsessed with cauliflower like me? I can’t get enough. Roasted cauliflower. Pureed creamy cauliflower. Cheesy cauliflower gratin. Cauliflower pizzas. Cauliflower soup. I’m still working on liking cauliflower rice, but like most foods, give it time and I’ll come around. My absolute favourite: my Roasted Cauliflower with Tahini Sauce, of course! Not to mention…
Edamame and Miso Salad
Oh I’m so sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I did it again. I up and left you all and went on hiatus for a month or so without telling you. I have done it a couple of times before and keep vowing to never do it again but it seems to happen. I…
