I’m holidaying In Byron Bay this week and my friend could not have timed her wedding better – I get to avoid a horrendous cold snap in Melbourne and trade it for sunshine and sand between my toes. Happiness overload.
Mini Banana and Macadamia Upside Down Cake
This cake is cooked entirely in a skillet because apparently that’s how I like to dessert. The main reason is because I didn’t want to make a cake to serve a party, I wanted it to be small… like 4 serves. And the easiest way to do that (if you don’t have a tiny cake tin) is to make it in a skillet. So here we are, another skillet dessert. You’re welcome.
Mushroom Ramen with Bacon and Egg AKA Breakfast Ramen!
Breakfast Ramen is the most delicious excuse to eat noodle soup for breakfast ever. Or to eat breakfast food for dinner. The choices are almost endlessly for the directions you could take this in but the basics are really easy.
Meal Plans Week 80
Ā It’s the last meal plan post of August and I’m extra excited because I head to Byron Bay tomorrow! So I obviously will not be in need of these meal plans but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to still write it for you!
7 Ways With: Mushrooms
Mushrooms. How are they such a contentious vegetable? They’re probably up their with brussel sprouts in terms of likelihood of being a despised vegetable. Either that or people adore them. I’m obviously in the latter camp and that’s why today’s ‘7 Ways With’ post is dedicated to those tasty morsels. However, I dated someone for years that hated them, mostly because they were a fungus and apparently eating fungus is gross. Personally I’m all for eating fungus. Especially when it tastes this good…
Broccoli, Hemp and Pepita Pesto Pasta
This pesto pasta is full of good goodness and has a protein boost from the hemp seeds. You could serve it with a poachedĀ egg for even more protein and richness but’s it’s satisfying just as it is.
Chicken Breast Schnitzel with a Superfood Gluten Free Crumb
I’m basically using the term ‘superfood’ in jest right now. What does it even mean anyway? I’m using it to mean ‘full of lots of extra goodness. Extra being the key word because this golden flaxmeal, pumpkin seed, hemp seed and steel cut oat crumb is definitely extra.
Meal Plans Week 79
I just realised this week that I only have 3 weeks left in Melbourne before I go. Which also means 3 more weeks of winter recipesĀ (even if the signs of spring have begun) before I’m back and it’s spring time! So let’s lean into the wintery vibesĀ with this weeks meal plans shall we? Turn the oven on.
7 Ways With: Carrots
The next ingredient in my 7 Ways With series is carrot because it’s the perfect season to be eating loads of these. They’re affordable and delicious.
Rainbow Trout and Raddichio Salad with a Goats Cheese and Lemon Dressing
Rainbow trout is not a fish I cook often and I honestly don’t know why. It’s like a delicate small version of salmon and cooks so quickly, making it a perfect week night option. If you can’t get your hands on it just replace with a salmon tail and cook for a few moments longer.
