There is something very satisfying about using the whole of an animal that is killed for food, and even more so when it leads to this. The bouillabaisse fed another dinner party of eleven people, so those fish made a total of over 20 meals. I felt like a very good predator!
I am on a bit of a roll with the mandarin, ricotta and honey flavours. Plus mandarins are getting towards the end of their season so I’m eager to make the most of them. This one is, like last week’s cake, super easy. The flavours are similar -this one is a bit stronger flavoured – but the texture is quite different, more like a cheesecake.
This is a riff on Mollie Katzen’s Green Green Noodle Soup, with a little bit of “Green Eggs and Ham” inspiration.
Wow. I’m over half way through the school year, and I haven’t lost a Muesli Bar Challenge yet. Even I’m surprised. I expected at some stage to push the low-fat, low-sugar bar just a bit too low!
Blondies are like brownies, almost like semi-set cake mix. But for a lunch box they need a bit of robustness. So these are cakey, brownie texture, but stay intact till little lunch.
Not a recipe, just a reminder. I have at long last moved on from Tangelo Breakfast Compote as my favourite breakfast. There’s still a few tangelos, but the avocados are so beautifully in season now, and there’s also still plenty of limes.
I was asked to pick my very favourite of the Muesli Bar Challenge recipes, and this is it. The Passionfruit Cheesecake Slice is the most popular recipe, but this one is my all time favourite.
When I was a kid, every block in suburban Brisbane had a backyard macadamia tree. Maca season meant finding a good rock with the right kind of hollow to stop the nut flying off, and a good hand sized rock for hitting them with.
Perhaps because it was such a 1970’s dinner party recipe, stroganoff has a reputation for being difficult and time consuming to cook, and it’s not, not at all.
It’s a simple trick: if you whisk egg whites until they are fluffy, they expand, by a huge amount. Add a few tasty low fat ingredients and you can create a big breakfast that is healthy, filling, and very low calorie.
