It’s been a little while since I’ve posted a recipe. And today I’ve got a good one! My kids love quiche but it can get a little boring so to mix it up I’ve hopped on the band wagon and tried them in the ‘stand and stuff’ tortilla soft shells. They’ve been a big hit mainly due to the novelty of the ‘boats’. Continue reading
Three ingredients. That’s all it took to make this delicious, moorish chocolate fudge. Continue reading
I made these for the kids and oh they are so good! Easy and quick which is essential when you’ve got kids or you’re on the run. Not much sugar in the recipe and they still tasted yum. I used a hand blender but any mixer would work. This recipe made 40 cookies – you could make more if you made them smaller. Next time I’ll add chocolate chips and drizzle them with chocolate or icing when they’ve cooled down. Continue reading
I’m the mum of a school aged child. How did that happen? Well, I know HOW it happened – what I mean is in the early hazy days (oh the haze, the haze!), I never thought I’d see 5 years never mind school days. But here we are – healthy, happy (mostly) and fully functioning. Continue reading
Quiche is such a versatile dish and a great way to hide veggies if you have kids who turn their noses up at the mention of veggies. These freeze really well and are great for lunch or dinner, or as a snack and in lunch boxes. Continue reading
I came across this recipe about three years ago and still regularly make these biscuits. They’re flexible in that you can add many different ingredients depending on what you have and what you like. Lately I’ve been adding some dark chocolate chips as a treat. Continue reading
When our eldest boy started school this year I was looking for ideas for his lunchbox. Something easy to make in bulk, something I could freeze and something that still tasted yummy. I came across scrolls -an easy recipe and you can add whatever filling you like. I made pizza scrolls and Vegemite scrolls as a test before he started school – and they were gobbled up! Woohoo – food I could make, store and he’d eat. Our 3 year old also loves these. Continue reading
I came across this recipe last year and have loved it ever since! It can be used for pizzas, scrolls and so much more! Our family makes homemade pizzas every Friday which the boys have come to love. They enjoy adding their ingredients which doesn’t vary much from pizza sauce, cheese, mushrooms, olives and ham/bacon. I also make pizza bites from this dough for school lunches – they’re just a smaller version of our Friday pizzas. Continue reading
Trying to keep the boys entertained in this humid weather is hard. As the youngest can’t be in water at the moment we decided on some baking – not sure it was a good idea to have a hot oven on in the heat and humidity!! Anyway, they loved putting the cupcakes together and they were yummy. Here’s our recipe…
I had a few bananas in the fridge that needed to be used. Usually I make banana bread but the boys asked for banana and choc chip muffins, and I said why not!
This recipe gave 12 moist and yummy muffins. It’s a healthy enough version that can be used for morning or afternoon tea or a snack in between. Continue reading
