Morning Bircher Muesli Mix
At times my life tends to be a little bit disorganized and chaotic, but I try my best to keep my sh*t in order. When I have a bit of free time, I try to get organized to make the days ahead easier. A way …

Curried Sweet Potato + Celeriac Soup
With Christmas behind us now we are getting into the less nice part of winter – a.k.a every day of winter after Christmas – and the need for coziness is at its peak. At school I like to cook in big batches so I don’t …
Chocolate Swirl Banana Bread
I came up with this Chocolate Swirl Banana Bread quite some time ago, but I wanted to save it for the perfect occasion. Now that we’re well into November, I think it is fair to say that we could all use a little bit of cheering up, right? I know I could! November is my least favourite month of the year by far (April being the second worst). I hate how early it gets dark and the weather is atrocious. It’s not quite winter yet, but it also isn’t really fall anymore; it’s just a gross transition between the seasons. So that’s my rant about November. Gross times of the year such as this make for a perfect opportunity to curl up with a hot cup of tea and a slice of warm, homemade banana bread.

Strawberry Chia Jam with a Twist
A few weeks before summer officially began, I sat down and wrote a bucket list of all the things that I wanted to (try to) do before September rolled around. One of the items on the list was berry picking. I have a couple of …
Grilled Za’atar Flatbread with Garlic Infused Olive Oil and Smoky Eggplant Puree
Not gonna lie, this was a really fun recipe to create. I got to combine three of my fav things: bread, grilled food, and za’atar spice blend! Woo! I’ve made this recipe before using spelt flour (which worked great), but I wanted to try to …
Chocolate Crispy Treats
I have very fond childhood memories of my older sister, Emma, whipping up a batch of rice crispy squares after school, which we would then devour whilst watching The Ellen Show. Oh, to be 9 years old again.. But seriously, rice crispy squares are a classic treat. Continue reading Chocolate Crispy Treats
Sushi “Burritos” with Kimchi
Whenever I get together with my two good friends Riley and Camryn we always make sushi. See the thing is, as a group we are quite difficult to feed. Riley is a pescatarian, Camryn is allergic to dairy, but eats meat and I don’t eat meat and …
Super-seeded Hemp Heart Granola
Back in the summer I did a bit of housesitting for my aunt while she was away on holiday with her family. I was in charge of looking after the house and her two dogs: Charlie, a Rhodesian Ridgeback and Tucker, a Corgi. For the …
Sweet and Spicy Cauliflower Tacos with Red Cabbage Slaw
A little while back I was browsing instagram, as one does, when I came across an instagram story from Tara O’Brady, the author of the Seven Spoons blog and cookbook. The story was a very loose recipe for roasted cauliflower with honey, hot sauce and nutritional yeast. As soon as I saw it I was sure to screenshot so that I could try this combo later. When I finally did give it a try, it was love at first bite haha. Since that first time I’ve fooled around with the quantities of the ingredients to get, in my opinion, the perfect sweet, spicy and salty flavour combo.

Vegan Banana Chocolate Chunk Muffins
I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this before, but I work at a bakery, which is pretty ironic considering that I can’t eat 99% of the product that we sell. Lucky for me we do have delicious gluten free and vegan muffins (yay!). Honest to …
