This story begins and ends with me eating cake for breakfast so, if you get worried along the way, be safe in the knowledge that everything will be ok. On cheesecake and fat If you are going to eat cheesecake just accept that it should be full fat. You can try to mess with it, go low-fat, but honestly ... why bother? It's cheesecake. I'm not going to get into the pro/con argument over fat, there are plenty of people leading that particular charge just fine on their own, but keep in mind … [Read more...]
Tahini & Raspberry Power Breakfast Shake – a PB&J twist
After taking September off from the Secret Recipe Club while we ate our way across the US, I'm back with a bang and excited to explore all the lovely creations that appear each month. My SRC assignment for October was Baking and Creating with Avril and as usual I was spoilt for choice. I took to her side-bar tags for inspiration and the first thing to catch my eye was a Pumpkin Swirl Bread, however as I've been a bit heavy handed with the pumpkin lately I figured I'd simply bookmark it … [Read more...]
Vegan Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream & Halloween Ice Cream Bars
Pumpkin makes me think of autumn, simple as that. Overflowing bins of carving pumpkins just crying out to become jack-o-lanterns. Costumes and candy and festive parties and crazy decorations. The promise of Pumpkin Pie at rapidly approaching holiday dinners. I've said it before and I'll say it again, no matter how long I live in Australia I still associate end of year holidays with cold weather -- and Halloween falls firmly in this category. People in many parts of the world don't … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: September/October 2013
As good as it was to be off on another adventure it is so very good to be back in my own kitchen and eating veggies on a regular basis. I contemplated doing a collage of the food we ate while we were away but there is just too much of it... I'm not even kidding. Most of the fun things from our holiday ended up on Instagram so if you are looking to waste time, plan an eating holiday, or just make yourself hungry go for it. In the meantime here are a few things from before we left, things … [Read more...]
SABH October – Halloween!
After a few months filled with a few new fabulous guest hostesses I'm back to take my turn hosting for Sweet Adventures Blog Hop. As it is October and I do have a soft spot for all things pumpkin and Halloween, I couldn't quite resist making this month's SABH theme all about ghouls, ghosts and general trick or treat debauchery. This is your chance to use your imagination and go crazy! Put your cupcakes in a witches hat costume, dress them up as little devils or pipe on frosting in the … [Read more...]
Concord Grape Curd & Vegan Meringue Pie Parfaits
Well now isn't that a mouthful in more ways than one. I mentioned that we are off on another adventure, however as the first two weeks of our trip involved hanging out in Cape Cod with my extended family, followed by a week at Mom's farm in upstate NY, it was nearly impossible to keep me out of the kitchen. I found myself whipping up salads and cakes and more salads along the way so figured I may as well pull out a slightly unusual twist for this month's Sweet Adventures Blog … [Read more...]
Macadamia & Coconut Granola – gluten, dairy, fructose free
3 days. 3 days until we're sitting on an airplane headed to America-land. 3 days of blur. The past few weeks have flown by in a flurry of editing and technical-publishing-learning-as-I-go-blah-blah and food photography and art direction. It will continue up until the moment we leave, and quite possibly for a bit while we are away, and as a result the impending holiday is proving a bit more laced with stress than anticipation. Incidentally, any recommendations on things to do and places to … [Read more...]
