Easy Pumpkin Beans

by Erin B on April 29, 2013

I’ve been seriously time poor lately. I started a new job back in February and after almost 8 years in my previous position, starting in a new role that is extremely demanding has taken up all of my time and brain space. Dealing with a serious health crisis on top of that has been a [...]

Pomegranate, Haloumi and Sprouts

by Erin B on July 1, 2012

The title of this post is deliberately misleading. Lets face it, brussels sprouts are not high on the ‘oh my god, get in my belly’ list of veggies for most people. Cooked for too long it’s like eating a mouthful of farts, but quickly fried or roasted in a little olive oil until golden and [...]

Hi Guys! I have a serious glut of zucchini’s developing here and two out of the four plants have only just started to flower. There are worse things that could be happening in my house right now I know, but I must warn you that a glut of zucchini’s probably means an onslaught of zucchini [...]

Baked whole pumpkin stuffed with a cheesy curried pumpkin risotto

June 7, 2011

This is one bumper recipe and was inspired by a fellow foodie (Hi Tash!) who served a version of this to her friends one Sunday afternoon. The original recipe calls for vast amounts of cheese and bread and sounds sensational and it got me thinking about stuffing vegetables in general. The possibilities are endless really, [...]

Pork and Chive Dumplings
