Pumpkin, Chickpea & Spinach Curry

I’m back from our awesome 5 week Italy trip, boy did the time fly! After a slight (ok, major) hiccup at the start, I got the date of our flight out mixed up and had us arriving at the airport a day late….oops! Thankfully we were saved by the most wonderful man on the Emirates […]

My newest obsession…. Overnight Oats!

Hi there! It’s been so long since I last posted. I’ve sort of gone into winter hibernation I think. Business has been crazy busy and we have been getting ourselves ready for our trip to Italy, which is now only 2 weeks away – YAY!! Super excited, and a bit nervous. I’ve been busily trying […]

Slow Cooked Rogan Josh Curry with Mint Yogurt and Spiced Quinoa

I found a little slice of heaven last week, a shop in Rozelle in Sydney’s inner west called About Life. It is amazing! It’s like a health food shop, meets organic/healthy supermarket with a cafe. How did I not know this place existed until now? I probably should have listened to my brother, and as […]

Mexican Rice with Chicken, Black Beans & Quinoa

Mixed Mushroom & Thyme Risotto with Lemon Infused Oil

(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 […]

Char Sui Pork & Prawn Rice Paper Rolls

(gluten, dairy, egg & nut free) While the produce where I live in the Blue Mountains is great, it is lacking in diversity. Luckily I work in the Inner West of Sydney, which has a real mixing pot of cultures. I love going to different areas and visiting shops that have amazing food and produce available. […]

Cafe de Paris Butter with Steak

I love a good steak, my problem is that I am pretty bad at cooking them. I’d have a better chance of getting one of Adriano Zumbo’s cakes right, than I am of cooking a perfectly juicy, medium-rare steak. Luckily, this recipe has saved my steaks for years.  It is a recipe for Cafe de […]

Lemon & Parsley Chicken Schnitzel with Garlic Coleslaw

(gluten, dairy, egg, soy & nut free) I have been really trying to keep positive about changing my diet, but this weekend, I took a trip down self-pity lane. After a few weeks with no soy, I took my chance on a soy coffee, since soy came up as a mild intolerance. I haven’t had […]
