Kidney Bean & Chickpea Salad with Spiced Citrus Dressing
Marion Cotillard (photog. Mario Testino) / via my Pinterest I feel like legumes deserve an apology from me. For so long the dodgy, mass produced versions of legume salads that lurk in the corners of supermarket delis, constituted the sum total of my legume-salading experience and it put me off big time. I…
Decadent Chocolate Creme (Or: A Surprisingly Delicious Way to Eat Avocados)
Avocado as dessert? Uhh… what?! That was my initial reaction when I learned of the whole foods trick of giving chocolate sweet treats an avocado base; no way was that culinary train wreck going to taste fantastic. A couple of months went by, and I moved into might-be-crazy-enough-to-work territory. And if there is one…

Stir fry tiiiime. A friend who stayed with us recently called this the best stir fry he’s ever had. Victory! Maybe he was just being super polite, but I dare say that this is, by leaps and bounds, the best stir fry recipe I have rustled up so far. Try it and let me…
Health by Stealth Caulifredo Sauce
Art by Nicoletta Ceccoli When I came across the idea of cauliflower sauce, I was a little skeptical, but also intrigued. Intrigued enough that I had to try it. Like so many things that turn out to be awesome, it was just crazy enough to work. The result? Well, the post-blending taste test literally…
Miso-Cashew Cheesy Sauce
Art by Liz Clements via Supersonic Electronic Good condiments really bring a mix-and-match style dinner together. I whipped this up last night in a fit of inspiration; it is my first ever pulled-outta-my-own-head victorious cheesy sauce. Superproud of this one! It is so flavourful and, if I do say so myself, moreish as hell….
Deluxe Roasted Vege Rice Bake with Rich Tomato-Onion Sauce
Image via Asi Es Como Es When in doubt: rice bake. This bake so, so satisfying and warming. There is a little bit of everything and it is all delicious and all superpowered. Creamy cannellini beans, toasted pine nuts, succulent roasted red capsicum, cumin-spiked zucchini and sweet chunks of pumpkin, all wrapped up in…
Easy 3-Herb Pesto
Art via The Art of Animation If your herb garden is in need of raiding, making pesto is one of the best ways to go about it. Traditionally, pesto includes a hard cheese such as parmesan; leaving it out really lets the vibrancy if the herbs and creaminess of the pinenuts shine through. The…
Shish Kebabs feat. Tangelo Baked Tofu (+ Roasted Capsicum & Pineapple Salsa)
By Shiu Injr @ Tumblr Instead of partying this Halloween, I drank appletinis and ate homemade snacks with a few of my favourite people; it was so much fun. These recipes are a feast of sweet and savoury goodness. They definitely weren’t in the Halloween spirit, but they do taste incredible! The kebabs are…
Delish Two Bean Tacos with Avocado (+ A Recipe for One Minute Tofu Mayo)
Alice via Ffffound After spending a little too much time on the pasta side of town, we were craving a different kind of dinner comfort last night. A crispy, Mexican kind of comfort. Taco time! This two bean filling is so good I could eat it by the bowlful, tacos or no tacos! Red…
Mango Salad Duet with Candied Pecans and Raspberry & Lime Vinaigrette
Via Fuck Yeah Dita @ Tumblr Shamefully, I had never experienced the joy that is mango-in-a-salad until now. Goddamn, people. I have been seriously missing out. This salad is one of those “well, bend me over and call me Nancy” life-changing events. And the pecans, dear lord, the pecans… Yes, the raspberries make the…
5 Minute Maple Cider Green Salad
By Lola Dupre This salad was our yummy-green-leaves-thing tonight, and it rocked hard. I served it on the side of a winning Lentil-Stuffed Roasted Red Capsicum and Whatever Pasta & Thick Garlic-Tomato Sauce combo. The vinaigrette is bold and tangy with a hint of sweetness. It might just be my favourite salad dressing creation…
