Ooh yes, I’ve mentioned before how blessed I am to be in love with a man who can whip up an incredible risotto at a moment’s notice and I figured Vegan Mofo was the perfect time for him to show us what he’s got! Don’t believe the rumours. Risotto is not difficult or scary to […] Read more…
I do believe it was my gorgeous bloggy friend Lisa from The Raw Serenity who first told me about socca pizza crust when she commented on my Blue Moon Mexican Pizza many blue moons ago. I was so excited to read about it on Wiki, who knows why it took me so long to try it, but let’s […] Read more…
Oh my beautiful friend Gnocchi, how I’ve missed you! Remember how much we crushed on this Spicy Tomato & Basil Gnocchi last winter? mmmmmmmmmmm… Soooo delicious and comforting – not to mention ready faster than you can say where’s my other fluffy slipper?! Gnocchi is usually a sure-fire hit with everyone. And just […] Read more…
I’ve already learnt so much during my Institute for Integrative Nutrition studies I barely know where to begin, but as a former chocolate-and-Starburst addict I particularly liked the module on ‘deconstructing cravings’.

Both times the tarts were the most […] Read more…
There are two types of people in this world – those who do things in moderation and those who go overboard. I most definitely find myself in the second category most of the time. When I was in high school I ate vegemite sandwiches for lunch every day for five years and loved it. When […] Read more…
bbbbbrrrrr, it’s freezing in Perth this week! I’m not at my sparkly best in the cold. Sunshine makes me sparkly. Running around in the cold makes me crave fast, comforting meals so I can get back to snuggling on the couch with re-runs of Gossip Girl a good book, a block of chocolate and […] Read more…
I had a wicked craving for pizza the other night. The kind of craving that tempts you to drive to the local pizza shop in the rain and hope to heaven they can pull off a vegan pizza. Then I remembered… I write a food blog! I could make a pizza myself! *light globe* I was […] Read more…
Meatballs are sooooo passé. This is ‘Modern Italian-Egyptian Vegan Fusion’ at its finest! Tell them I said so! 🙂 If you have the time and the inclination, you could make your own falafel balls (and even pasta!) for this recipe, but if you’re like me and like your recipes super quick and easy, you can buy ready-made falafel […] Read more…
