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 […]

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 […]

Indian Spiced Cauliflower & White Bean Soup

posted by

Hello lovelies! We’ve been having a couple of wild & rainy days in the Blue Mountains & Sydney, so I’ve used to opportunity to work from home next to the heater, and avoiding the 2+ hour commute to the office with all the road closures and flooding. Have to say, the dogs have been pretty […]

Coconut Cherry Choc Balls

Sometimes you just really need a sweet treat, and these Coconut Cherry Choc Balls are the bomb! Enough healthy ingredients to lessen the guilt and all the yumminess! I was craving chocolate today badly! So decided to whip up a healthier version of a cherry bounty bar. I was watching the new show on TV “Bringing […]

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!

posted by

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 […]

Spiced Pear, Walnut & Sultana Cake

posted by

Hi! Hope everyone’s new year has got off to a great start, I can’t believe it’s March already! I need to be honest – I’ve been a bad girl, actually more stupid than bad. For 6 months I wholeheartedly stuck to my allergy/intolerance free diet and couldn’t believe the changes in myself and how amazing […]

Christmas Plum & Ginger Chutney

posted by

For me, this chutney is Christmas in a jar. The flavour and smell is just so Christmassy, and after years of making this, it just wouldn’t be Christmas without it. But this year, in my eagerness to get ahead and make this a month earlier to really develop the flavours, I managed to completely de-rail […]

Caramelised Onion, Rosemary & Roasted Garlic Tofu Quiche with Olive Oil Pastry

posted by

I had rather naively made the decision that I wouldn’t try to adapted versions of certain dishes that I figured couldn’t possibly be the same as their ‘normal’ counterparts. I saw recipes on vegan blogs and thought ‘they just think it’s good, because they don’t know any better”. Then a couple of weeks ago I […]

Carrot, Apple & Orange Cake

posted by

A friend turned to me the other day and said ” I take it your oven is working again”. Yes it is, I said, how did you know? “Your arms are covered in burns again!”. It’s true, my oven is finally fixed after 9 months! Happy Days!. It is also a fact that, I can’t […]

Corn Fritters with Tomato Relish & Avocado

posted by

Do you have a signature dish? This has become mine. One friend has gone as far to say, that if he had to pick his last meal, these fritters would be his choice. Big call! And of course, I am not horrible enough to send him pictures of corn fritters every time I make them……..”insert […]
