Alright, let me tell you about the time I learned making homemade Shake and Bake is worth the (minimal) fuss. I was pretty sure the store-bought stuff was one of those childhood things you just, well, grew out of—like neon green ketchup or believing my grandad’s fish stories. Turns out, I was wrong. One rainy …
Let’s Talk Brussels Sprouts (& My Not-Guilty Obsession) If you’d told me ten years ago that I’d be waxing poetic about Brussels sprouts, I’d have laughed you right out of my kitchen. But a couple winters ago—I remember it was just after the radiator finally stopped clanging like a haunted tuba—I tried making Maple Miso …
Let Me Tell You About These Oatmeal Bars You know those mornings when you’ve left your coffee somewhere (again), can’t remember if the dog’s been fed, and realize you’ve got exactly five minutes before you need to run out the door? That’s basically how I stumbled onto making these healthy oatmeal breakfast bars. Honestly, it …
If you’ve ever been caught craving something sweet, like, right now—but your snack stash only contains cereal and marshmallows (been there!), then my Rice Krispie Treats Recipe is your new best mate. I can’t even count how many times I’ve whipped up a batch for a last minute movie night or just because the weather …
Hey, Want to Make Creamy One Pot Sundried Tomato White Beans? Alright, you’ve got to hear about this bean dish I accidentally perfected (well, mostly perfected). It started out years ago when I wanted proper comfort food but couldn’t face—um—actually washing more than one pot, which, if you know me, is basically my cooking philosophy. …
Alright, so let me level with you: I didn’t always love fruit desserts. Actually for ages I thought baked fruit was just what you ate when you couldn’t have cake. (Sorry, Mum.) But then there was that ridiculously sweaty summer when I ran out of ice cream (how?!) and only had a basket of peaches …
Let’s Talk About Baked Sweet Potato Fries Alright, settle in — I’ve got a soft spot for sweet potato fries. It started a few years back when I tried making them instead of bagged oven chips for my fussy little brother (the bloke asked for ketchup and a side of sarcasm, mind you). Ever since, …
Let Me Tell You About This Whipped Feta Business… Honestly, there are days when the only thing that gets me through are snacks. (Not sorry about it.) I discovered this whipped feta with roasted olives one night when I had friends coming over—panicked, as usual, since I’d spent the afternoon lost in a rabbit hole …
I Swear, These Are the Fastest Pinwheels Ever Okay, story time—so the first time I tried making tortilla pinwheels was for this potluck in our old apartment building, and I was already running late; the kind of late where you’re frantically flinging fridge doors, muttering, “what can I make in 20 minutes?” These pinwheels saved …
So, I’ve got to tell you—when my mate first suggested poaching eggs in the air fryer, I thought she’d finally lost the plot (sorry, Jen!). I mean, isn’t the air fryer already busy crisping everything else under the sun? Anyway, one rainy Saturday morning with just a lonely egg in the fridge and zero patience …
