Baked ricotta is creamy, lemony, deliciousness. What more can I say! The little dude was a huge fan. He looooooves dips – or possibly the actual dipping itself, but either way he dipped away with gusto. Serve as a dip at your next party or I love it served with roasted veggies and crusty bread for a…
Citrus Salad with Fennel and Walnuts
There isn’t a whole lot I like about winter, but juicy blood oranges are one of the few things that I can’t get enough of. The colours are just gorgeous and I love love love orange salads. There is another one that I make regularly with rosewater, pistachios and goats cheese – but I’ll leave that for another post! This citrus salad with fennel and…

The rich flavours are balanced beautifully by the sharpness of the quince and although it does take a little time to prepare, I promise it will be worth…

Tomatoes are easily H’s favourite food so I knew he would love this dish. I have found that by adding Big H’s favourite foods to new dishes he is more likely to try new things, and get used to new flavours more easily. This dish is easy to prepare and the coriander lime dressing is lovely…
Lebanese Beans with Chickpeas
I just had to include the picture above. Check out the lower left hand corner. It’s a baby Tyrannosaurus Rex! I noticed it when I was going through my photos – too cute! These shots were the best of the bunch, as that spice in the dish was everywhere and he was using it as…
Caramelised Sweet Potato
Spiced Lentils
A big bowl of green goodness!
This is my go to super easy lunch/dinner for Little Big H if I haven’t had time to prepare anything. He loves it and its ready in 15 minutes. It’s best served cold, so make it ahead of time if you can. If you don’t have a lots of fresh veggies on hand, it’s just…
