I finally wrote my Chemistry and Biochemistry exam on Friday (feels as if I have been studying for it for months!) and so this weekend has been my first “free”, non studying weekend in months. We celebrated by taking the boys on a (short) day trip to the Mornington Peninsula. It’s a gorgeous stretch of […]
Popcorn and Peanut Butter Cupcakes
June 20, 2012 by
Warning!! These Popcorn and Peanut Butter Cupcakes are terribly addictive… they are salty and sweet, crunchy and gooey… and you WILL find it a challenge to stop at just one. (but don’t let that stop you from indulging in these heavenly treats…) I’ve made the ‘sauce’ for this recipe a number of time and have […]
Honey Chicken Nuggets
June 16, 2012 by
These Honey Chicken Nuggets are a bit of a miracle in our house – it’s the first time Mr 3 has willingly, openly eaten Chicken in a “healthy” form. I have tried and tried every chicken nugget recipe I could get my hands on. Soaking the nuggets in all manner of marinades. He turned his […]
The BEST Pumpkin Tagliatelle
June 14, 2012 by
You may think it’s a bit of a stretch to call this the “Best” Pumpkin Tagliatelle, but I assure you that when you make this pasta, it will instantly become your favorite Pasta dish. The first time I made this, I did so by casually added a bit of “this and that” and when I […]
Coconut Pancakes
June 11, 2012 by
I’m always so inspired by the sensational Breakfast Ideas shared each week, especially the creative pancake recipes. So, at the back of my mind I’ve been playing with different pancake ideas, and when I came across Coconut Pancakes while flicking through “5 Of The Best” by Valli Little, I knew I had to give it […]
Pumpkin Pie Bread
June 6, 2012 by
This Pumpkin Pie Bread is most and full of Pumpkin. It’s quite a shallow bread, and not quite as “hard” as a bread would be, but then not quite as “soft” as a pie would be – which is why it’s sort of a cross between a pumpkin pie and pumpkin bread and a recipe […]
Rhubarb French Toast Recipe
June 4, 2012 by
It’s only in the past year that I’ve started cooking Rhubarb, I don’t quite know why it took me so long, but, like with Pomegranates, once I started cooking with it, I loved it and often buy a bunch to enjoy. For this dish you can use any jam or fruit puree of your choice. […]
Double Chocolate Mini Muffins
June 1, 2012 by
My Mom asked me if I’d like to make a sweet treat to contribute to her work’s Biggest Morning Tea Event, which raises funds for the Cancer Council. I always jump at the chance to bake, and when baking for a food cause – even better. I wanted to make something delicious that would be […]

Watermelon & Blueberry Smoothie
May 28, 2012 by
This week my contribution to Breakfast Ideas Mondays is a healthy Watermelon and Blueberry Smoothie. It’s rich in vitamins and anti-oxidants from the fruit and the Flax Seeds provide a healthy dose of Omega 3’s too. I found that just half a glass of the smoothie kept me feeling full for a good couple of […]
