Mac & Cheese with hidden veggies

This recipe is so delicious and will definitely satisfy those pasta cravings. When I make these sort of dishes for my family I am always finding ways to include some extra hidden veggies. This pasta dish was a total success – my family does not like capsicum however did not even know it was in…
Choc Chip Caokies

Hello! Just wanted to share with you a quick recipe that is simple to make and great for those chocolate cravings. I made these for the girls lunchboxes, perfect size to keep their energy levels up. Plus they have chocolate in them so they are a winner! I called these Caokies because they are like…
One Pot Wonder

This dish is another favourite of mine because it is so comforting, full of flavour and loaded with heaps of nutritional ingredients. I started off just making kitchari, then began to add some more ingredients like split peas, rice, quinoa and chickpeas. It’s like dahl rice and veggies all in one pot. This recipe is…
Caramelised onion & sweet corn on the cob muffins

Savoury Muffins loaded with caramelised onion, sweet corn on the cob and spinach are so good anytime of the day! The great thing about these muffins is that you can swap and change the veggies in the recipe, with what you have spare in the fridge. I have used grated carrot and zucchini (make sure…
Midnight smoothie bowl

I was so fortunate the other day, the fruit and veg market had organic blueberries and blackberries half – price!! Yeah some where not perfect but when blended up no-one would know no different. When I go to the store I always have a look on their discounted trolley. I hate wastage it is a…
cream cheese blondies

So if you like creamy desserts and white chocolate brownies (blondies) you are going to love this combination.

Plum & banana smoothie bowl

Here is a simple, but yummy colourful smoothie bowl. I love experimenting with different fruits, whole foods and spices in my recipes. In this one I chopped up a soft plum – that no one wanted to eat! And froze it down with a large banana. I also included some blue spirulina as it contains…
Creamy pumpkin & Pea pasta

You can never have too many pasta recipes! Comfort food is a blessing especially on cold rainy days or when you need something quick to quip up because the day is going too fast (I have these days quite often!). I usually roast off the veggies while making the girls afternoon snack and school lunches…
Fruity Tahini Muesli SLice

My friend introduced me to tahini a few years ago and I have been a fan ever since. I especially love it with banana and maple syrup – such a great combo! This friend also asked me to create a yummy slice that was nut and gluten free because of the food allergies her family…
Smokey Eggplant dip with dukkah

I love eggplants, I only learnt a few years ago that Aubergine is what it is commonly known as overseas. I am fortunate my sister grows yummy creamy eggplants and I usually stuff them with curry veggies or make lasagne with them. My mum however isn’t a fan of them so she usually misses out.…
Vegan basil pesto with pasta & Veggies.

Pasta is such a comforting meal and the sauces that you can create are endless. Basil is definitely a favourite herb of mine, however when looking for a pesto there are very few that are vegan – unless I want to drive for an hour or pay a ridiculous price for it. So I make…
