I’ve been a little uninspired with my cooking lately. It’s hard to get excited when it’s day whatever of everything being closed. To try and curb this cooking malaise and get some inspiration back, I’ve decided to make myself a list of things to try out this coming month. That way, I can check back […]
Legitimately. Not even kidding. This recipe was UNREAL. I am not a person who swears by a slow cooker, but I made a NYT recipe for honey chipotle chicken tacos, and I am a convert. You can find the recipe HERE. For this you will require, a pound and a half of boneless skinless chicken […]
So about a month ago, my mum and I went to a chocolate and caramel making workshop. About halfway through it all I decided that chocolate making was my calling and that I should quit my job and open a shop. I have these dreams every now and again, but haven’t followed through on them…so […]
I think if there’s one positive to come from what’s going on right now, it’s that many of us seem to be wasting far less food. I don’t particularly enjoy leftovers, but I’m trying to really ensure that I’m not letting my produce go to waste and that I’m repurposing some of my previous meals. […]
Day 5 of the Social Distancing Experiment here. My to-do list now includes purging my closet, reorganizing my kitchen, and cleaning out my fridge. Having a baby has made me highly efficient though, so that should take all of about 3 hours. I’m going to try in my forthcoming posts not to even reference the […]
Before the world completely changed last week (#flattenthecurve), I had decided to challenge myself to find interesting salads. I don’t LOVE salads.

Greetings from maternity leave! Things are settling down here a bit now and with that, I’ve been able to cook a lot more than I was when I was working and busy trying not to vomit while pregnant. Without further ado, let me tell you about one of the best recipes I’ve tried in a […]
If it isn’t obvious by now, I live off grains. I could sustain myself on a variety of grains or pastas with an assortment of roasted vegetables. My husband on the other hand, really only wants meat. He’s a good sport and humours my would-be vegetarianism fairly frequently, but it’s not often that I make […]
There are recipes that make you feel like you could run a marathon, simply because of the energy and nutrition they provide you with. Then, there are recipes that make you feel like putting on sweatpants, getting comfy in front of the fire and never leaving the house. Chrissy Teigen’s Mac & Cheese is one […]
I endeavoured to make gnocchi last weekend. How could it be that difficult, I thought. It wasn’t really. What else would I be doing with that time, I wondered. And so I set off to find a seemingly easy to follow gnocchi recipe. I did find one, by googling “Jamie Oliver gnocchi recipe”. You can […]
