This chai-spiced fig and nut biscotti is super delicious dipped into coffee or liqueur. Make a big batch to give as gifts or keep it for yourself as it will last up to 2 weeks in an airtight container. For the recipe, check out my guest post over at Polka…

I have a waffle maker that often gets neglected but I realised the other day that I only have a short amount of time left in this pregnancy so NOW is the time to enjoy me some waffles! {LATE EDIT: Sorry! wrote this while I was still pregnant but it…

I made these yummy flavoured salts for a Polka Dot Bride guest post recently. I chose a spring-y herb and lavender flavour and also a smokey spicy salt which would be great for summer. They make great wedding favours or Christmas food gifts. Full the full recipes head over to Polka Dot…

I used chipotle chillies with capsicum, coriander and cherry tomatoes, but you could try salami, ham, asparagus, ricotta,…

I made these tasty pancakes as my entry for the MammaMia food blogger idol competition. They are low in fat and sugar but full of flavour, and the whole family is going to love them. Labneh is a thickened yoghurt cheese, in this case a sweet and creamy topping for the pancakes. This…

Mother’s day is coming up so I thought I would play around with one of my favourite baked muesli recipes. It makes a great gift, just pop in a cute jar or plate it up on a tray for breakfast in bed. You can mix this recipe up to suit…

Looking for a way to use up those leftover hot cross buns from the long weekend? Why not try this yummy looking French toast with figs and maple syrup from Taste.com.au? Did you know you can also find me on Instagram, Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter?   Hot cross bun French…
