Happy New Year! Feeling rested and refreshed – today is my first day back blogging after a 10 day break. Over the break I’ve had heaps of fun making noodle creations with my vegetable spiralizer… the absolute hit were these Broccoli Spiralizer Noodles. They’re a fun and tasty gluten and grain free noodle alternative! The […]
Hash Brown Cake (Potato Kugel)
My kids ADORE Hash Browns, so I thought I’d treat them to a Traditional Jewish Dish “Potato Kugel”, which is really like a giant Hash Brown which is cooked in the oven. In fact, on seeing the finished dish, Mr 4 decided it was a Hash Brown Cake – so this recipe has two names. […]
Corn and Red Pepper "Sunset" Soup
I adapted this recipe from Nigella Lawson’s Recipe for Sunshine Soup in her incredible book – Nigella Kitchen: Recipes from the Heart of the Home. It’s a book I page through regularly, I love reading the beautifully written recipe introductions and the photography is something to aspire to. Nigella’s Sunshine Soup consists of Corn and […]
Purple Carrot Soup
Recently, my Sister introduced me to Purple Carrots. She generously gave me a packet and told me that they have loads of anti-oxidants and anti-cancer qualities. I hadn’t heard of purple carrots before and discovered that they cook and taste just like “normal” orange carrots – but make EVERYTHING they cook with completely purple. My […]
Gluten Free Pumpkin Muffins
These Gluten Free Pumpkin Muffins are also Kosher for Passover, which is what lead me to come up with a recipe for muffins that the boys can have for snacks and meals during the Passover period. These are full of wholesome and nutritious ingredients – ground almonds, pumpkin and eggs. The perfect solution when you […]

A beautiful time when all the flowers bloom, amazing butterflies are fluttering in gardens and cute little bunnies hop through the fields. This […]
Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower and Coconut
I don’t think there is a sight more comforting than a Baked Macaroni and Cheese with a crispy, cheesy crust on top. Growing up, my sister and I would always fight over who got more of the “Nutty Bits” as we called the crunchy, hardened cheese on the top. I made this when she was […]
4 Beautiful Beetroot Recipes
Over the past week I’ve shared with you four delicious, beautiful beetroot recipes, including both sweet and savory delights. The week started on “Meatless Monday” with a nourishing Beetroot, Coconut and Tofu Risotto. I fed the risotto to Mr 21 months as part of an inviting Muffin Tin Meal, which is a brilliant […]
Beetroot and Chocolate Muffins
Earlier in the week I did promise you another Beetroot Recipe. It’s taken me a couple of attempts to get this recipe just right, so it’s taken an extra few days to bring the Beetroot Recipe to you. I’ve come to the conclusion that equal volumes of chocolate and beetroot (as opposed to more […]
