I know stuffed vegetables can be overdone as vegetarian main dishes, but hear me out on this one. This lentil, apple and pecan stuffed pumpkin is a seriously excellent autumn main course option. It’s hearty, warming, filled with autumn flavours and simpler than it looks! I highly recommend you give it a try.
Recipe: Pasta e Fagioli
Pasta e Fagioli might translate to pasta and beans, but that undersells just how delicious this is. It’s hearty enough to have for dinner, and perfect for the cooler weather. Is it a soup? Is it a stew? Either way I love simmering this away on a Sunday afternoon and then having tasty food for days to come!
Review: Many Hands Winery, Coldstream
My mum and I celebrate our birthdays a couple of days apart, and after not getting to celebrate at all last year we were determined to do something lovely this year. Lunch in the Yarra Valley seemed like an excellent idea, and we settled on Many Hands Winery as our venue of choice. We were very glad we did!
Review: Maha Bar, Collingwood
After a delicious meal at Maha a few years back, we had tried to eat at the conveniently-close-to-home Maha Bar for a while now. Two separate lockdowns ruined our plans, but we finally managed a visit a few weeks ago and it was well worth the wait! Here’s what we ate!
Recipe: Pomegranate Pistachio Israeli Couscous Salad
