The countdown is on and I’m super excited this year. H and I were chatting about getting a photo with Santa the other day – or more accurately I was trying to convince him it was a good idea… Me: What are you going to ask Santa for? H: A drum and a flower Me: Who…
Macadamia Bonbons with Chocolate Toffee
These macadamia bonbons are super healthy, they contain macadamia nuts, chia seeds, tahini, coconut, vanilla and I have sweetened mine with maple. If you want a sugar-free alternative use rice malt syrup. I was pretty excited when my toffee idea came together. I put brown rice syrup in a small saucepan and heated it over…
Pancetta Rolls
There is something so satisfying about making bread at home. Kneading the dough, the smell of it baking in the oven and it is a fabulous activity for kids. H loves measuring the ingredients and getting his little fingers into the dough. It’s also very calming for little ones if things are getting crazy… What do you do…
Spiced Lamb Quinoa Pilaf
I have been making a version of this dish for years. It is a perfect mid-week meal – easy to prepare, super tasty, it all happens in the one pot so there isn’t a lot of clean up, and it’s always a hit. The spices are balanced beautifully with the sweetness of the currants…
Quick Pickled Veggie Salad
Pickled veggies may not appear to be the most toddler friendly of dishes but my little one certainly approved. The pickling liquid isn’t too heavy on the vinegar so give it a try, you can always add a little extra sugar if you think it is still too vinegary. This is my favourite salad to serve…
Quick Roast Lemon Chicken
Quick roast lemon chicken is a great weeknight meal with minimum fuss. By butterflying the chicken it cooks in half the time and allows you to add your veggies in from the start. I love meals like this that all go in at once and allow you to clean up while the magic happens. So easy and perfect…
Healthy Avocado Lime Ice Cream
I have two weaknesses when it comes to food, chocolate and ice cream. I often enjoy a bowl of ice cream of an evening, and up until recently I would serve myself ice cream and H natural yoghurt – sneaky but brilliant right :) But at 2.5 years old, H is now totally on to me….
Healthy Carrot and Walnut Muffin
These carrot and walnut muffins are really delicious, and with 2 cups of carrot they are also good for you. I always like to have a batch of muffins in the freezer, they are super handy for lunch boxes or healthy snack on the run. They aren’t overly sweet so if you like things…
Teriyaki Salmon
Teriyaki salmon is one of those dishes you assume is time-consuming and has a million ingredients but it is actually very simple. It has only 4 ingredients: salmon, sugar, soy and mirin. Simple but really delicious. Serve with a salad and you have a super easy weeknight meal. I cook the salmon under the grill when making this dish….
Baked Ricotta
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…
