It would appear that I have fallen rather behind with my blog post entries, this I can blame on numerous things, sunshine (well I would rather be outside, who wouldn’t), bad health and when in good health my love of being in my workshop rather than the kitchen, but I…
Cauliflower Coconut Lime Rice
I know, false advertising and all of that, but this may not be rice as we know it, but it is a great, a very healthy rice alternative and a great way to get children to eat one of their five a day, as this cauliflower faux rice is so…
Roasted Peppers with White Bean Mash
I am afraid that I have fallen off my clean eating diet a little, it started with Stephen’s birthday and then having the gorgeous Limoncello Tiramisu left over really didn’t help, but I really have paid for my naughtiness. I have been bloated and have felt really unwell, so lesson…
Limoncello Tiramisu
It is my Son Stephen’s 24th Birthday and as is always the tradition he always comes home for a very special dinner and as usual because of Stephen’s Nonna being Italian I always try to stick to traditional Italian dishes and tonights dinner was no exception. We started with gorgeous…

Date Slices

Pesto Beans and Feta on Toast

No Bake Cacao Slices
