Vegetable, lentil and chickpea curry
I know summer is coming but I still like to cook the occasional curry….also I like to make a big batch so that I can stock up my freezer for when I fancy the night off!
Kale and kiwi smoothie bowl - Slinkii
As I’m sure you all know by now I love my smoothies and you can’t go past a delicious and nutritious smoothie bowl post-workout.
The ultimate asian breakfast bowl
Sometimes I wake up and crave something savoury, so this is my current go-to breakfast salad. I like it because it’s low carb and low sugar but still really satisfying!
Hot smoked salmon kedgeree
Kedgeree is something I have been eating all of my life as my mum makes a really good version. Usually the fish is fresh smoked haddock poached in milk but I have had such trouble trying to find this in Sydney!
Roasted Beetroot Hummus - Slinkii
I just made the most delicious Roasted Beetroot hummus for the Slinkii blog. Topped with pomegranates this dip/spread/topping is to die for!! If you would like the recipe for this easy recipe please click, here.
Vegan Kale Pesto
I don’t know about you but I always have SO MUCH leftover Kale in the fridge! It just never seems to all get eaten….until I put this kale pesto together! This is so amazing with zoodles, crudités, on toast, on eggs, on anything you would usually put pesto on really 🙂
Lemon and turmeric low sugar balls
As you may have seen from my other energy ball recipes they often contain natural sugar derived from dried fruit such as dates, apricots, sultanas and so on. I thought I would come up with a low-sugar recipe for all of you who are trying to watch your sugar intake and possibly lose weight.
Meal Prep 101 - Utensils
By now you will know that I LOVE my kitchen and its actually a place I feel like I can relax and switch off! I spend hours upon hours creating and trying out new recipes and working out ‘easy’ ways of doing things! Hence the reason I thought…
gluten-free crab, corn and chilli fritters
I have to say there was a bit of trial and error with this dish! I was a fritter virgin until I made these…which is quite surprising as they are so easy to throw together (as long as you get the measurements right!!).
4 x ways to make really tasty Apple Cider Vinegar drinks
Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) is not something I took to straight away. In the beginning I went down the track of just adding honey, but no amount of honey could cut through the awful taste…..so I gave up.
Mixed mushroom carbonara zoodles
I’m having a moment with mixed mushrooms! The depth of flavour that you get from asian mushrooms is incredible! I topped this off with truffle oil and a creamy vegan sauce which worked SO well! I want to make this again ASAP it reminded me of a rich carbonara!!
Essential matcha latte recipe
I know Matcha has been ‘popular’ for a while now but it’s only recently I’ve really developed a taste for it…..I mean, I should say ‘obsession’…
Roasted Cauliflower, Chickpea and smoked cheese soup: Mode Sportif
SOUP!! I love a good soup and I can’t get through winter without a few soup recipes up my sleeve. This one I gave to the lovely team at Mode Sportif so if you would like to check out the recipe, click here
Unconventional vegetable ramen
What is not to love about a hearty, vegetable ramen? I have called this ‘unconventional’ as I tend to throw in whatever I have in the fridge….in this case I had some broccoli and cauliflower but you could add any vegetables you like.
My overnight oats
This is a great one for meal prep as it is so quick and easy and it will keep in the fridge for a few days. I like to use a mix of almond milk and coconut water but you could also use fruit juice or water if you don’t want it to be too creamy.
Peach, mango and strawberry smoothie
As many of you know I have recently been contributing recipes to the Slinkii blog. I really wanted to get a summer vibe going even though it’s the middle of Winter so I created this…

Excited to share with you my first recipe for the Slinkii blog! I will be writing more recipes for Slinkii in the coming months so make sure you check back here and on the Slinkii site, here. If you are unfamiliar with Slinkii here is a little bit about the brand…
The Brexit bowl: a message for solidarity
I feel compelled to write something about the recent events concerning Britain’s referendum and the result to leave the EU. Being British in a foreign country has always felt strange to me…I mean I still refer to Britain as ‘home’ despite having lived in Australia for 7 years.
The tastiest Coconut and Strawberry Chia Pudding: Slinkii
You all know how much I love my chia puddings! SO easy to make, low fat, nutritious and delicious! Check out this yummy recipe I did for the Slinkii blog here
Halloumi & Roasted pineapple wraps
It is no secret that I love Haloumi and because it is quite a salty cheese it compliments the sweet roasted pineapple really well. You can be inventive and use whatever you have in your fridge like avocado, peppers, cucumber, carrot, chilli, onion and so on! I made an omelette to go in this one…so good!!
