Recipe: Mini Vegetable Frittatas

Is there anything better than mini versions of things, food included? I don’t think so, and these mini frittatas are no exception. Years ago when I was living in Amsterdam a friend and I made a whole set of mini things for some friends that had just moved to London – it’s amazing what you can find in miniature once you start looking! We had a mini table tennis set, mini cups and bowls and spoons, tiny cans of drink and all manner of other itty bitty things. It ended up being a rather large collection of very small things!

Review: The Joinery, Elwood

One recent Saturday B and I found ourselves in Elwood and in need of a feed, so decided to pick a cafe at random for lunch. We settled on The Joinery as it looked like it would have a few vegetarian friendly choices, and luckily we were right!

Recipe: Homemade Falafel

Ahh falafels. As a vegetarian I’ve eaten many a falafel in my time, and sadly many of them have been dry and unappealing.

Recipe: Corn & Haloumi Fritters

I recently spotted some delicious looking fritters on Not Quite Nigella and realised I hadn’t made any in a long time, and I love me some fritters, so this had to be rectified fast. I feel like fritters are one of the only foods that works equally as well for every meal of the day – add a poached egg and you’ve got breakfast, or some chutney and a salad and lunch or dinner is sorted.

Recipe: Sundried Tomato & Feta Tarts

To commiserate the end of our little break over the Christmas/New Year period, B and I decided to make the most of Melbourne finally turning on some sunshine and headed out for a picnic. I love everything about picnics – preparing the food, packing the picnic basket (probably because B bought me an awesome old fashioned basket for my birthday a few years back!), lying in the sunshine and of course, eating the food. I generally waaaay over cater, and this was no exception, but I prefer to have lots of different things to eat even if that means bringing a lot back home again!
