I often use recipes that are American.  As I'm in Australia with Australian measuring cups & spoons sometimes recipes don't quite work out.  If the recipe is all cups or parts of a cup measurement as it's the same ratios, it usually works out.  I have had no problems with this Gluten Free Apple Crumb Pie Recipe, though… Continue reading Converting Recipes

Last Week’s Menu – 13 February 2017
Last week I managed to make a couple of quiche like slices for my children to try as lunch options.  I made No Green Stuff Veggie Slice which I took to my friends house for lunch with a small group of ladies.  There were a couple of slices left but my children didn't try it.  I also… Continue reading Last Week’s Menu – 13 February 2017
Chilli Beef Meat Pies
This post about Individual Leftover Chilli Pies inspired me to make my own Chilli Beef Meat Pies with some leftover Quick Chilli Beef.

Last Week’s Menu – 6 Feb 2017
It's been a while since I've posted about what I've been cooking but thought I would start this again.

What’s for Dinner?
"What's for Dinner?" has been the catch cry of my children since they could talk. Â 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. Â I usually plan and shop for… Continue reading What’s for Dinner?
Breads
This week I tried a new seed & nut sandwich bread recipe. Â I enjoyed it fresh on the first day and then toasted most days since. Â I had heard about things with sunflower seeds going green but hadn't seen it myself until I made this bread. Apparantly the sunflower seeds contain chlorogenic acid which reacts… Continue reading Breads
