Sit up straight, take a deep breath and repeat after me... "Leftovers" is not a dirty word,"leftovers" is not a dirty word,"LEFTOVERS" IS NOT A DIRTY WORD! Don't believe me? I'm such a fan of the sentiment that I even made a little video to prove my case. Now I do get it, leftovers are -- without a doubt -- polarising. People either love them or hate them -- and the hateful feelings are generally driven by shudder-inducing (or gag-inducing) memories of dried out, fragrant in the … [Read more...]
Vegan & Gluten Free Teff Anzac Biscuits
Sometimes baking is the only solution. Spoon, measure, stir, pour, the motions happen almost automatically, ingrained in my mussels it seems. But as my hands move on their own they in turn leave my mind free to spin and swirl. It's a dangerous situation at best. And so it was, as rain spattered the window and clouds darkened the sky in waves, my swirling mind swirled -- then paused briefly, not on our (now distant memory it seems) brunching and sunsetting all over the place, but on the … [Read more...]
Rainbow Swirl Hot Cross Buns
It's not the first time I've made rainbow food and coloured it using only natural (from nature not from a lab) ingredients. It's also not the first time I've made slightly out-there Hot Cross Buns. And I'd love to tell you that I made these a million ways and this is the best but truth be told time got the better of me this year and right now done is better than shelved for another year. In theory veggie powders would work a treat but fresh produce was all I had so that's what … [Read more...]
Amaretto Peaches
Dear Sydney summer, you suck. You've been blisteringly hot or rainy and cold all season, with barely enough decent beach days to count on two hands since you began. And lately? Well it seems you think we all enjoy the frizzy hair and sweaty faces that accompany 80%+ humidity. Well guess what, we don't. Yes, yes, I sound all first world problems and all but seriously, what's the point of living here -- with the over-priced fomo food fads and heart breakingly expensive real-estate … [Read more...]
Summer Mango Salsa
For so long I took photos only for myself. And then I got better at taking photos and started shooting for other people. And somewhere along the line I kind of stopped shooting for myself. Then last weekend RJ requested fish tacos with mango salsa for dinner and there was something so very perfect about the pile of fresh, brightly coloured produce we brought home from the shop that it simply had to be photographed. Of course not just made and shot but chopped and dropped and spread … [Read more...]
Chocolate Hazelnut Raw Truffles
Every year more and more people celebrate World Nutella Day and every year I post yet another Not-tella recipe in protest celebration. If you want to read my pasts rants explore my past iterations of all things choc-nut inspired you can head over to Chocolate Tahini Spread (nut-free Not-tella) or Chocolate Macadamia Spread (Aussie Not-tella) or Nut-tella-type Choc-Hazelnut Spread (3-Ingredient Not-tella) or even Banana Split Spread (heaven). Or you can simply make a batch of Choc … [Read more...]
Raw Choc-Chip Cookie Dough Truffles
Truth be told, you really can't go wrong with chocolate chip cookie dough. Of course there will be an argumentative few who shake their fists and insist this is not proper cookie dough and to them I say pshaw -- go on and eat your raw eggs and raw flour, if you need me I'll be watching from the corner with a cup of tea and a pile of cookie dough truffles. These babies were made for a bake sale late last year and took pride of place alongside those Lemon, Macadamia & Coconut Raw … [Read more...]
