Recipe: Pesto Pasta Salad

Thanks to everyone that got involved in the 1st Meatless Monday linkup! We’re back for week 2 and I can’t wait to see what you’ve all been cooking!

I had some friends over recently for a BBQ to watch the AFL Grand Final (we just don’t talk about the result!) and I was on salad duty, which is no surprise given my love for salads! I went with a few old favourites like my potato salad, as well as this easy-peasy pesto pasta salad! It was quite the hit so I will definitely be pulling it out again for more BBQs over the summer!

Recipe: Asparagus Freekeh Salad

Freekeh is one of those ingredients that seemingly burst onto menus out of nowhere, and whilst I have eaten it out a few times I had never actually cooked with it.

Homemade Pizzas

Recipe: Homemade Pizzas

Italian food never rates highly in my mind when deciding on somewhere to eat out, but homemade pizzas are a whole different story. I love that we can control both the types and amount of toppings we use and customise them to be exactly how we want them. We have a couple of go-to topping options, so I thought I would share them with you all! I’d love to hear about your favourite topping combos as well!

baked eggplant fries

Recipe: Baked Eggplant Fries

Anyone that knows me knows I am a massive AFL fan, to a rather ridiculous point. I will happily watch pretty much any match, even if my beloved Sydney Swans aren’t playing – case in point, I went along to the MCG last Friday night despite the Swans having a week off! Now that the finals series is well and truly upon us I thought I would share a recipe for something perfect to snack on while watching the footy – Baked Eggplant Fries (scarf and theme song singing totally optional).
