When I find something I love (and my family loves) I go a little crazy and find different ways we can enjoy it. For me I obsessed a little over Raspberries and I think I had every right too. Fresh Raspberries are normally close to $8 per 250 grams and frozen Raspberries are over $5 […]

Raspberry & Pear Loaf
Frozen Raspberries were on special this week for 1/2 price so about $2.80 which is such great value. I can never afford to buy fresh raspberries as they are normally close $8.00 for 250grams and I can never justify that when I could use that $8.00 to buy a kilo of meat. There is nothing […]
CORN, CARROT & POLENTA CAKES
I bought some lovely fresh corn today and had visions of pairing it with some Polenta I had in the cupboard and that is how these Kinda Sweet, Kinda Savoury, Super delicious cakes were born. This a one bowl mix recipe so it is also super easy and basically fail proof. INGREDIENTS 1 Cup Corn […]
HOT CROSS BUN PUDDING
Looking for ideas on how to use up the Hot Cross buns that seem to multiply over Easter. You could simply freeze them to enjoy later, but if you have some lying around that are not as fresh as they were the day you bought them, this simple twist on the classic bread and butter […]

This is a perfect cake to celebrate Easter, especially if you are looking for a change from chocolate Easter eggs. This went down a treat when I took it for morning tea at my Grandma’s house. A real crowd pleaser for both the young and older generation. The two ingredients that make this cake a […]
QUINOA CHOCOLATE CAKE – GLUTEN FREE
I recently decided it was time to try Quinoa. I didn’t really know what it was but had some concept that you could use it in place of rice. The benefit of Quinoa is that it contributes to our dietary needs far more than rice does. It is high in fibre, calcium, potassium, iron, magnesium […]
NATURAL MUSELI, DRIED FRUIT & MILO BISCUIT BITES – SCHOOL LUNCHBOX
These little biscuit bites are perfect for the school lunchbox. My two boys went crazy over them and it ended in a crying session after I wouldn’t let them have another (they already had eaten 4). INGREDIENTS 2 Cups Natural Muesli with dried fruit ( I used the Coles brand packet found in the cereal […]
