Scrambled Silken Tofu Breakfast with Greens

posted by

Breakfast is my least favourite meal, mainly just because I find the options that are egg, dairy & gluten free to be boring, and there is a lack of choices. I read that Black Salt, which strangely is pink, is the secret ingredient in making great scrambled tofu. I found some at Herbies (they have […]

Pumpkin, Carrot, Ginger & Turmeric Soup with Fried Curry Leaves

posted by

I’ll be honest, I wasn’t expecting much from this soup, but it really surprised me. The addition of the fried curry leaves lifted it to a new level.  I was really just trying to make a soup out of the vegetables that are on the low histamine list, and I wanted to include turmeric for […]

Summer Zucchini, Corn & Basil (Vegan) Chowder

posted by

I miss a proper chowder, and will have to make when I can have seafood again and add some in, but this was a bloody good version on its own, and packed full of goodness. I’ve been struggling the past year or two with allergies/intolerances that I just can’t work out. I break out in […]

Spinach, Broccoli, Kale & Black Rice Egg Free Frittata 

posted by

I had a heap of veggies left over from my produce bag and figured I’d give an egg-free frittata a go. I love the tufo quiche I make, so figured I’d do something similar. I seen a frittata recently that had wild rice in it and it looked great, so went with adding it in, made […]

Vegetable Shoestring Fries

posted by

   A quick & easy way to get some veggies into a “fun” meal. Instead of potato I used a mix of sweet potato, parsnip, zucchini & eggplant to make shoestring fries.  My husband is being so good about how many vegetarian meals I’m making, so grilled up some steak, in keeping with my bargain […]

Heirloom Tomato, Zuchini Flower, Broad Bean & Ricotta Tart

posted by

    We are having such a crap summer in Sydney this year. Is has rained most days, and the days it is sunny tend to be roasting hot and muggy and then storms roll in by the afternoon.  We bought new outdoor furniture at Christmas and we are yet to be able to enjoy it. […]

Banana & Blueberry Bread

posted by

   I generally don’t bake. Baking doesn’t suit my “let’s just add this see how it goes” personality and since I can’t have gluten, eggs or most dairy I just find baking too hard to get right. But there was a banana situation that needed to be dealt with, and I am seriously using any […]

Lemon & Garlic Stuffed Artichokes

posted by

A couple of weekends ago I went to a food styling and photography course with Billy Law from A Table For Two workshops. I have done a bit of photography before and thought this food blogging thing would be a breeze, until I realised two things. Firstly, I haven’t done any photography for a long […]

Mixed Mushroom & Thyme Risotto with Lemon Infused Oil

posted by

(gluten, egg, soy & nut free ) A good risotto is a labour of love, and like all good love stories, I’ve found a little alcohol never goes astray 😉 There is a half a glass of wine in this recipe, which leaves plenty for you to enjoy a glass or two during the 30-40 […]
