Lasagna is not easy to get right. I don't know why people always offer to make it for school events, potlucks, birthdays, funerals... Growing up it seemed like something that would be easy to make because everyone was making it all the time. Let me assure you, it is not. I have made about a…
This is one of those recipes that I didn't make thinking I was going to love it. I certainly didn't think it was going to become a semi-regular meal in our house. Well, for the first time in my life...I was wrong. We were coming off of a juice cleanse and were trying to eat…
I'm a bit obsessed with pumpkin at the moment, also a bit obsessed with farro AND spinach. So this is basically my favorite thing to eat, with a bit of haloumi on top as well because what's the point in having salad if it doesn't have cheese on it? (Spoiler alert: there is no point).…
I'm starting to consider changing the name of this blog to "things that look impressive but are super easy to make", might be a bit long...but let me know what you think? Madeleines are something that I've shied away from making for a while, simply because they look so perfect and pretty I assumed they'd…
I feel like I've got a bit of a theme going...I keep writing recipes for things that seem much more difficult than they actually are to make. This is 100% one of those things. Pasta is one of the things that I like to make to impress people (or make people think I went through…
Buffalo Chicken Dip If you were going to make only one thing out of this collection, this should be it. You can thank me later. Grilled Little Neck Clams with Herb Butter My absolute favorite thing to snack on while the rest of lunch comes together. Guessing I will eat around 150 in my 8…
I'd like to call this "not your average potato salad", but I think "MTC's Potato Salad" sounds a bit better. This really is so much better than your average potato salad. For starters, it doesn't use mayo. Some people might look at this as a negative but I'm a firm believer in the lighter version…
I feel like fried chicken is one of those things that people are scared to cook at home. A massive vat of insanely hot oil isn’t exactly the most welcoming thing. But when I sat down to put together my recipe collection for the Fourth of July, it was a hard item to knock off.…
If you read my last recipe, Spiced Lentil Soup, you'd know what the weather has been like in Sydney. It's been cold. When I was a kid and it was cold we would have all sorts of cozy and comforting foods but one of my absolute favorites was corn chowder. It came in a can and…
When most people think of the weather in Australia, they think of warm, beautiful, sunny days year round. This was me until moved here two and half years ago. I now know the truth. Yes, there are warm (insanely hot), beautiful, sunny days, IN THE SUMMER. Australia has a seasonal climate which means, we get…
Last Sunday Hayden and I were walking to the shops to pick up a few ingredients for dinner. I was planning on making our favorite Sausage, Kale & Fennel Pasta but had the weirdest craving for salad so made a last minute change. When we got home I really was craving the pasta and wasn't too excited…
