After months of watching other people head off on holidays, RJ and I are finally taking a break and making our way through America-land for a few weeks. In my absence the lovely Claire is here to ply you with treats. You may remember Claire from a few months back when I guest posted over on her site - she was one of those aforementioned holidaying people - and it's great to have her here. Thanks again! (Oh, and if you want to follow our eating adventure holiday, Instagram is probably … [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...]
Moroccan Quinoa, Avocado & Orange Salad
I mentioned in my last post that I'd received a crate of oranges recently, and rather than just eating one each day I challenged myself to do something different with them all. I was so pleasantly surprised with some of the combos I came up with and this salad was one of my faves. Fruit in salad can freak me out a bit - perhaps too many years of bad 90's raspberry vinaigrette has scarred me for life - but oranges are a great way to add a bit of a sweet/tart bite to winter … [Read more...]
Rocket, Parsley & Pepita Pesto
Necessity is the mother of invention and this pesto is the result of a last ditch rescue mission in my crisper. There are a few of those happening lately. A Spaghetti Squash - more on that later - purchased from the same stand as those tomatillos, steamed up. A couple of frozen mackerel filets, pan fried. And the pesto, blended together in the blink of an eye. Fridge surprise lunch at its best. Rocket, Parsley & Pepita Pesto Rather than letting yet another couple bunches … [Read more...]
Bloom. The Healthy Food Co – Mosman, Sydney
The Mosman cafe scene has exploded over the past few months, and it's about time. The local options simply weren't up to scratch - other than one regular haunt for (fabulous) corn fritters - and as a result we were always heading over the bridge for brunch. So you can imagine my delight when, during a morning walk earlier this week, RJ looked up just in time to spot the newly opened Bloom cafe by The Healthy Food Co. We paused just long enough to scan the menu, finding no less than 10 … [Read more...]
Quinoa Fried Rice
A twist on a classic, a fridge surprise, leftover magic... Call it what you will this creation is one of my favourite ways to use quinoa. Truth be told it's one of my favourite ways to use pretty much anything. Clearing out the crisper has been quite a trend round these parts lately and it's bound to continue. The good thing about re-inventing leftovers is that they cease to be tired and simply become an entirely new meal. How terribly convenient. Tell me, what is your top tip to … [Read more...]
White Winter Soup
The good news is I don't have pleurisy. While the thought lives just fine on it's own as a daily positive affirmation statement it may be best if explain a bit further... First some background, I am not a fan of doctors [sorry doctors], hospitals freak me out and I am not one prone to hypochondria. The last time I was in a hospital was 11-ish years ago and in general I am one of those people who will soak gushing kitchen injuries in salt water and bandage with a tight band-aid before ever … [Read more...]
