In December we did a camping trip around South Africa and the intention with meals was to keep them SUPER simple, trying to use the least amount of pots and dishes as possible! Anyway, this 5-ingredient, 20-minute recipe was one I made up on the way with a few basic supplies. I think they were…

Tomato and Basil Chickpea Pasta

November 10, 2020 by Louise

It’s not everyday that I come across a really easy recipe with simple ingredients that doesn’t require a lot of editing from me. And sometimes I think I come across them – on paper they appear promising only to be let down by the flavour in the end. And that is why I am SO…
