Is it vegie or veggie? I’ve gone with the latter out of respect for Veggie Mama, but it feels wrong. I suspect that ‘veggie’ is actually the American spelling. The internet is like American spelling’s Trojan horse, soon we’ll be writing favorite, color and, hold me, organization. But I digress. You’ve come here for the food, so…
Lucy’s Mum’s no-bake chocolate slice
Once upon a time a lovely lass called Lucy had a blog called Diminishing Lucy. It was one of the very first blogs I ever read and I truly connected with Lucy through it. It was a health and fitness blog, but so much more than that. Lucy had a way of inviting us in and…
A simply scrummy lemon and zucchini loaf
I’ve gone a bit mad for the loaves lately. I can’t stop making them. There was the dateable date loaf which I made three times last week (two were for gifts, stand down) and I’ve already made this zucchini and lemon loaf twice this week… both times for us. Outrageous! The thing with a loaf…
Simple eggy fried rice with cashews
This is a ‘throw it all together’ one pot meal that my family are ga-ga for. It’s pretty much made with all the stuff you have in the freezer on any given Sunday and it’s yummy. That’s all we really need to know. The nuts add texture and crunch but if you’re not nut-friendly, leave them…
Lovely lemon and coconut muffins
I’ve tried for years, but I couldn’t get the kids even remotely interested in eating brown or whole grain bread. I’ve been reading Michael Pollan’s wonderful In Defense of Food and it’s made me realise that if they will only eat white bread full of artificial crap, just don’t serve them bread. So I’ve pretty much stopped…
A date loaf worth dating
As many of you will know, afternoon tea is the fourth core meal of the day at our place. We stop for a shared afternoon tea most days of the week. It’s not always cakes and muffins and slices and biscuits, but usually it is. We tend to have our sweet treat for afternoon tea and save…
Super-easy maple cinnamon scrolls
I looooooove cinnamon scrolls, I really do. They were one of the gifts of 2011 which is the year I first tried a recipe and ate one. They were big in 2011. The trouble with cinnamon scrolls is that they can be quite cumbersome and not exactly healthy. This recipe goes some way to fixing…
Slow-cooker butter chicken
My kids love butter chicken but before we all decided that butter was a good thing (happy days), I used to panic at the thought of them eating it. It just sounds so… lardy. Then I discovered that butter chicken needn’t have butter in it at all to taste great. In fact, this version of…
Homemade naan bread
Get outta town, we’re making naan bread?! This is definitely not something I would have even thought to have tackled a year or so ago, but the more you cook, the more willing you are to try. See, eventually you figure out that if something doesn’t work out quite how you wanted, well, it doesn’t…
Nut-free bliss balls
Have you made bliss balls yet? They are kind of unavoidable. I consider these nut free bliss balls to be the healthy version of the cake pop phenomenon of 2012. Only much, much easier to make. Pop one of these balls into the lunch box for a hit of energy to power the recess handball game….
