Tom’s Famous Soup
In my house, we call this soup “Tom’s Famous Soup” – the tastiest vegetable soup. It’s famous because, Thomas, our 10-year old son, created this recipe from scratch one afternoon and we all loved it so much that he made it again, and again and…. Any moms dream, right?! And the name just developed, like,…

One Pan Turmeric Rice and Beans
There are so many things to love about this Turmeric Rice and Beans dish. Firstly, it’s a one pan meal which makes me just as happy as when someone says “sheet cake” – it’s in the same league, they are one pan, one mess wonders. Music to my kitchen sink.

Fiesta Quinoa
I watched a documentary called “Food Choices” a few weeks ago on Netflix (go watch it if you can!!) and ever since then, I’ve increased our “Meatless Mondays” into Wednesdays and Fridays too. Which basically means I need more vegetarian recipes (good ones) in my life! I wanted to share this one with you –…
Finally My Kids Approved this Tomato and Parmesan Soup
My kids can be fussy little shits sometimes. Yours? Flip. Yoh! They liked tomato soup….from Woolworths. But that “healthy homemade” Woolies soup had waaaaaaay too much sugar for my liking. We are really trying to eat more whole foods and less sugar these days and I thought I could surely replicate their favourite soup but…
