When I was in primary school, my absolute favourite baked good was mum’s homemade milk-chocolate chip muffins. They were seriously the best. Light, fluffy and loaded with sweet and creamy chocolate chips. Like most kids, I had quirky ways of eating certain foods. I loved nothing more than to nibble the buttery muffin parts around the choccie chips, leaving big mounds of chocolate sections for an epic chocolate-in-my-mouth “explosion” afternoon tea finale.

“Fish & Chips”
This is a genius way to make the most of fresh sardines – which are much sweeter than the tinned variety. And, I find, less gag-worthy.
“Banana-Cake Batter” In-A-Jar Dessert
I don’t always use the phrase “BOMB DIGGITY”, but when I do it’s because of taste sensations like this super-easy dessert “parfait”.
This baby only features two ingredients, but the technique and uh-maz-zing flavour combo is the absolute shizzle, I’m not even exaggerating when I say that it honestly tastes like banana cake batter. Who doesn’t love eating cake batter by the spoonful?
Creamy Dreamy (almost) “Instant” Soup
Bone-broth based soups are so on trend right now and for good reason. They are;
- super soothing on the tummy
- never fail to boost the ole’ immune system
- are a warming option on a chilly day.
Thrifty Lamb Soup
If you haven’t figured out yet from this post and this post, I really hate seeing a quality lamb leg go to waste after a roast. It’s virtually impossible to strip all the meat away, and seeing flesh go in the bin is such a sad sight. Thankfully, this is a sight we needn’t see – enter Thrifty Lamb Soup, which, as the name suggests, allows us to be thrifty, ensuring that no part of that beautiful animal goes to waste (plus you get a delicious and dirt-cheap meal out of the whole experience – plus you kitchen will smell divine). Winning all round!
My Go-to Side Dish or “Starter”
I’ve mentioned my adoration of organic broccoli with olive oil, salt and pepper several times before. However, I thought that seeing as I eat this dish pretty much every day, either as a light lunch, side dish with fish at night or a “starter” before a dessert of a few organic bananas with inca inchi butter, I’d better give my beloved greens their own recipe post.
It’s Not All Doom and Gloom
If you’re listening to health-conscious thought-leaders and paying attention to the media sources daring to inform us of inconvenient truths, then chances are you’re at least vaguely aware that we are living in a pretty toxic world.
A Day On My Plate
A blogger fave of mine, Megan from detoxinista.com, writes regular posts entitled; What I Ate, where she shares photos and explanations of what she’s eating lately. I find it weirdly fascinating to take a glimpse at someone else’s nutrition habits. I’m guessing this strange interest is what makes me cut out to be a nutritionist.
Sex-noise Salmon with Seductive Veggie (s)Mash
This meal is seriously worthy of it’s kinky title. The salmon alone will induce the foodgasm of a lifetime. No joke, you’ll be hard pressed to contain the urge to happy dance in your seat and grunt with delight as you savour each flavour-bomb mouthful. Then you discover the seductive bed of mixed vegetable mash. The playful side dish keeps drawing you back for more as you take time to appreciate the moorish creaminess, subtle spiciness, addictive sweetness and grounding saltiness. The crispy skin garnish takes the presentation and texture to another level – who doesn’t love a well-seasoned, absurdly crunchy and deliciously fatty salmon skin?
