salt + vinegar kale chips recipe {revisited]
So, as some of you may know… I’m a virgo, and a Galloway (yes, that’s a double whammy). What this basically means is that I’m a perfectionist. A painfully anal perfectionist. There, said it. Understand that this is both a blessing and a curse. Right, now that that’s clear there are a few things that […]
creamy split pea, carrot + sumac soup recipe {vegan}
Yesterday was one of those days where a roaring fireplace wouldn’t have gone astray. The drizzle hung around most of the day, making me feel like I was back home in NZ. From the moment I woke I had soup on my mind. Growing up I’m pretty sure there was a constant supply of soup […]

zucchini, quinoa + rocket salad w/ lemon, mint + chilli
There is so much food kicking round my house these days that I very rarely have to actually think about something to make for lunch. I just eat whatever happens to be there for the days shoot and carry on. But today I wanted to make one last late-summer-style salad (okay, okay I know it’s […]
