a few of my favourite things {October 2013}
I’m just putting the final touches on the last of Gourmet Gadget Challenge posts, so I thought I’d sneak in a little favourites post quickly before that goes live sometime in the next day or two. It’s been a very busy month, but I’ve managed to find some little gems on the online world to […]
kohlrabi, beetroot + apple salad with parsley + lime
Mum and Dad used to grow all sorts of fruits and vegetables when we were little. There were rows of strawberries covered in black netting to keep the birds out, rows of corn that we kids would play hide and seek in, mounds of potatoes, which if I remember rightly is where I put the […]
vegan fried rice with sugar-snap peas + chilli recipe

a few of my favourite things {September 2013}

spiced millet pilaf with beetroot, feta + mint recipe
I love rice. Some would say there have even been times in my life when I’ve lived off the stuff. Rice porridge for breakfast, rice chia bread for lunch, followed by curry and rice for dinner… It’s played a huge part in our diet since changing over to gluten-free 5 years ago, it was my savior when […]
