The other day I gave you all sorts of ways to add veggies to your breakfast bowl, now it's time to put some of those ideas into action. I'm a big believer that rainbows always win and breakfast bowls are no different. Bright swirls of pumpkin and beetroot puree pack a veggie punch, while kiwi and blueberries add a colourful tang. You could certainly apply these topping combos to a bowl of yoghurt and muesli, or even flakes if that's your thing, but oatmeal porridge is my go-to more … [Read more...]
A Dozen Ways to Add Veggies to Your Breakfast Bowl
Who knew adding veggies to your breakfast bowl could be such a shocking (SHOCKING!) idea? Apparently the concept is confronting and unusual and unexpected, yet -- as someone who adds veggies to porridge more days than not -- I find the reaction to the idea as shocking and unexpected as the idea itself. It is however all a matter of packaging (isn't everything?). I recently shot some photos and videos for the #mybrekkiebowl campaign, and as part of the press release I was quoted … [Read more...]
Fruit Omelette & Blueberry Muffin Croutons
No long tomes today, just bright pretty pictures. Because if I get started (really America-land? Trumpf? What the fuck are you thinking?) I may never stop, and it won't be pretty or bright. And right now there are enough dark angry things out there, so I'll refrain for the time-being from feeding the machine. If you need me I'll be hoping the words of this inspirational woman get through to the hecklers and burying my fears for the future in mounds of rainbow coloured fruit. And if … [Read more...]
How to Make Couscous & The Hidden Side of Couscous for Comment
There is currently a storm raging through the Australian restaurant industry and its related media outlets. If you aren't in the middle of the food media field it may have blown right by you like a soft breeze, barely ruffling a hair on your head, but if you are in the midst of people who work and live food there's no way you've missed the hurricane. In brief, a person who fed her restaurant habit (pun entirely intended) by exchanging Instagram coverage for free meals approached the wrong … [Read more...]
Beetroot & Berry Smoothie Bowl
You can hear the detractors arc up as soon as a pretty photo crosses the screens of their phones, "smoothie bowls are so over-done, so trendy, only good for pretty Instagram pictures!". They it yell loudly and repeatedly (because they quite obviously have nothing better to do, or perhaps have been pushed over the edge by one too many failed avocado rose attempts), and fixate on to the next so-called trend. However I, brandishing a spoon like a sword, am here to stand up and say, "who cares, … [Read more...]
3-Ingredient Emergency Cookies
Sometimes you just need a cookie. It's a sentiment which seems to be a common theme around here these days -- although it's not quite as opinionated or parenthesised this time, ahem. These little morsles have made many an appearance on Instagram over the years, generally in a fit of irritation over something or other, occasionally for dinner, and very unfairly with nary a recipe to be seen. Of course this is almost to be expected for something with the word "emergency" in its name. As … [Read more...]
Spelt Crepes, Mulled Wine Poached Pears & The Decadent Pantry
I've always been a bit of a perfectionist. Not in a 'the lines have to be straight' kind of way but more 'just fix that little bit, and that little bit, and that other little bit because they're driving me mad'. Details and I were best friends for years, or so I thought. The predisposition to perfection -- call it low-level OCD if you must -- is terribly handy for activities such as folding fitted sheets (I have the most organised linen cupboard ever, to RJ's chagrin I never quite make it to … [Read more...]
