choc chip, nutella & caramel cookies

30 june 2026

I am, by my own admission, a cookie fiend. Over the course of a couple of months last year, I spent over $300 on cookies. Three. Hundred. Dollars. On cookies. So when I tell you that you’ll absolutely fiend over these choc chip Nutella and caramel cookies, know that I’m coming from a place of expertise. The good news? These won’t cost you $300, just a fraction of the time and ingredients.

struggle supreme pasta

17 june 2026

I had a sandwich a couple of weeks ago that was essentially a supreme pizza, and the flavours just stayed with me. The combination of tomato, capsicum, salami, cheese and olive is just so solid and familiar. I was craving it, but I didn’t want a pizza. So I just threw all the ingredients together into some pasta and discovered a real struggle hero meal.

lamb, honey & mint kofta

21 may 2026

I’ve never really been a fan of koftas, but I like the concept of them. I love meat, and I love spices, but I hate grated, undercooked onion. So instead of living the rest of my life without koftas, I decided to make my own version, one with all the flavour, and none of the unpleasant onion.

pumpkin choc chip bread

15 april 2026

A simple, easy baked loaf — but make it autumn. This pumpkin bread is the kind of spicy little afternoon‑tea treat that makes the whole house smell like a hug. It has that perfect blend of flavours where everything plays its part: the orange is bright and unmistakable…

pumpkin, kale & quinoa salad

15 april 2026

This salad is absolutely delicious. I know what you’re thinking… “kale?? Gross, no thanks”. Hear me out. There is so much flavour, texture and colour. You will not be thinking “kale is spinach’s bitter cousin”, you’ll be thinking “wow, kale can actually taste nice”. 

pumpkin mac & cheese

15 april 2026

There aren’t many things better than a big, ol gooey bowl of mac and cheese. But it’s not exactly considered a health food. So if you’re feeling a little guilty about indulging, why not add a cup of pureed pumpkin?! It adds a whole lot of fibre, and vitamins and minerals, and counts as one of your vegetables serves for the day.

pumpkin spice latte

15 april 2026

I personally am not a coffee drinker, but there’s something about pumpkin spice lattes that I can’t pass up. They really are more of an American delicacy, so if I happen to be in the USA over fall time, I will definitely grab one. So I tried to make my own version at home.

cowboy caviar

3 april 2026

Cowboy caviar has been around for a while, but I’ve only just discovered it. I found a nutritionist on YouTube recommending this as a way of adding more veggies to your diet, and she’s totally right. This really is just a bunch of veggies and beans chopped up and you use corn chips to eat them.

high protein bolognese

27 march 2026

Bolognese is one of those recipes that is such an all-rounder. It’s easy to make, it’s tasty, nutritious, freezes well, and I actually make it all the time. This is, by no means, a traditional bolognese, but who cares? It’s your meal, make it your own.

beef & broccolini noodle stirfry

20 february 2026

When I first moved out of home, I was very excited to cook for myself. I had always been a competent cook. But the thing is, whenever I would cook, I’d go all out—ambitious, multi-step meals that required planning, prep work, and a sink full of dishes by the end of it.
