"What's for Dinner?" has been the catch cry of my children since they could talk. Often this would be one of the first things my daughter would ask in the morning when she was little. I started menu planning a few years ago and have found that it helps. I usually plan and shop for… Continue reading What’s for Dinner?

Gluten Free Meat Pie
For Australia Day a few weeks ago I decided to attempt making a gluten free meat pie, again. I have attempted this several times before but never had very good results.

I usually combine a couple of recipes to make my porcupines so I thought that I should record how I make them. One… Continue reading Porcupine Meat Balls

Easy Roast Beef Frittata
What to do with the leftover roast meat? As a child we often had meat fritters with tomato sauce spread on top. I haven't found a good gluten free fritter recipe yet. In the past we've often had Donar Kebabs but gluten free wraps aren't that great. When we had left over roast meat recently… Continue reading Easy Roast Beef Frittata
