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…
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…
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…
A few weeks ago our friend Ang requested that I make a recipe that uses persimmons because she loves them so much. To be honest, I'd never (knowingly) had a persimmon until today...and I think I love them too. This galette is super easy and highlights the persimmons perfectly. I originally shot the galette WITHOUT…
You know when people say things like "I just whipped this up!" and it's something amazingly delicious that you think took at least 30 minutes to make? This is one of those things. I was feeling a bit peckish this afternoon but didn't want anything too filling as I've made a massive batch of my Healing…
I love a good meatball sub, and this one would have to be my all time favorite. Simple, not fussy, with LOTS of cheese. Makes 2 meatball subs 1/2 batch of my Classic Meatballs 2 cups of The Best Red Sauce Ever 1 ball fresh mozzarella, sliced into thick disks 1/2 cup parmesan, freshly grated 2 small…
I woke up this morning feeling below average. A bit of a headache, a bit of a sore throat, overall not amazing. With no real plan to do anything to make myself feel better or stop myself from getting properly sick, I went about my morning... Until Hayden texted asking if I needed anything from…
