Living with food intolerance doesn't have to be intolerable
On a recent trip to Morocco, I was quite astounded to find just how serious they are about their herbs and spices. Pleasantly so, I might add. I mentioned to our fabulous tour guide, Jaouad from Infinite Morocco Tours, that I wanted to buy some Moroccan spices. Most of all, their […]
I really do love the fact that vegetables are hidden in so many recipes these days. Not only because it enables us to get vegetables into even the most staunch vegetable hater (gasp!), but also because – why not add one more vegetable serve to your day? These wholesome brownies with […]
Homemade almond butter of any sort is simple and delicious. However, homemade roasted almond butter is next level. Think of that smell if you’ve ever roasted nuts in your oven at home, or bought some from a market stall. That is exactly the flavour that comes through when you taste it. […]
These chocolate peppermint fudge bliss balls make me happy. They bring back many childhood memories of enjoying an after dinner mint at one of my parent’s dinner parties…. even just writing that made me smile 😊 My husband and I aren’t massive dessert fans at all. We can both do […]
Banana and cinnamon muffins with a twist? What’s this twist, you say? …… avocado! 😮 You know I love to sneak ‘green things’ into the foods I cook for my husband…. particularly the green things he doesn’t like, and avocado is one of those. Mind you he has no issue […]
Sweet potato toast hit the internet some time early last year thanks to Kelsey from Little Bits of having no bread in the house one morning. As a result, slices of sweet potato subbed as toast slices and the rest is history as they say. How’s that for thinking outside the […]
This little recipe earned itself the name ‘Gorgeous garlic and chive labneh’ because, well, isn’t it?! I absolutely adore flowers and I always have. I even dabbled in floristry when I was deciding what I wanted to be when I grew up. Those freezing 3 or 4am starts at the […]
Banana porridge to warm on winter days… Yes! Absolutely necessary as we progress deeper into winter in the Southern Hemisphere. I was actually starting to think winter wasn’t coming for a while there. Now I think all the seasons are just a little delayed because it sure is chilly! This […]
Reduce food waste with frittata you say….. Yes! It may seem a bit of a stretch, but nothing could be simpler 😊 I was both honoured and privileged to have had the opportunity to attend a breakfast with Dr Jane Goodall this morning. She spoke about the poor health of […]
Preparing a nutritious breakfast as you fly out the door can seem an impossible task some days. This is where make-ahead meals, like these delicious mini omelettes (or frittatas – whichever you prefer 😊), can definitely shine. They can be made in a big batch on a weekend, or a […]
I had a good and proper bout of Mondayitis today. I used to get it weekly when I worked in the corporate world because I never wanted to go back to the office on Monday, but it’s very rare it happens now that I’m studying what I love. I had a […]
Kohlrabi fries – by far my favourite way to enjoy this under-appreciated vegetable. And I’ll admit, I only recently fell in love with kohlrabi myself. This was all thanks to joining my local community garden and learning more about what we were planting and harvesting. Before pulling some out of […]
