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…
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…
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…
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…
There really are few things in life better than a good taco. And I mean that. My perfect taco is without a doubt, al pastor. I stole this recipe from my dad...because he knows how to make them perfectly. To quote our housemate "they're the best tacos I've ever had". Serves 4-5 people, 1.5kg pork,…

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…
So a week or so ago I asked my lovely/readers/followers/fans (okay I won't push it...I take back the fans) what they wanted to see more of on my blog. The general consensus was that you would like more healthy, easy, mains and chocolate, duh. So I spent a good chunk of time yesterday (while half…
The other day I made what some would call a bad decision. I googled the list of every single international and national food holiday, and took the time to put every single one of them (with the exception of a few weird ones...) into my calendar. This, my friends, is how I learned about world…
I'm not one of those people that looks in a practically empty fridge, sees a few random ingredients and thinks "I'll make this amazing meal!". No, I am the person that looks in a practically empty fridge and decides to make toast or a jaffle (no shame in eating a jaffle, everyday for every meal...I…
