Vegan Dates & Walnut Loaf
This loaf is super tasty and moist as hell. Naturally sweetened by the dates and raisins. A definite recipe to keep in the pantry, and so easy to make. My girls 8 and 10 years old, attempted this all by themselves.
Zucchini Muffins
This classic recipe is so easy to make and its every child's favourite thing to eat!! Great way to serve them (hidden) vegetables, while the bacon and cheese makes it tasty good. So darn delicious, you may need to make extra for those quick little hands!! You can feed them these for breakfast, lunch or as a snack. Makes a perfect picnic food too. They also freeze well in freezer bags - gently bring to room temperature in the fridge overnight.

Epi 5 Part 2: Snapper Thai Mango Salad
I love Asian food and spices and sometimes find clean eating and salads lacking in the flavours I am familiar with. So this dish, Snapper with Thai Mango Salad proves that we can straddle both the flavours and yet keep this meal sexy, fresh and low carbs. You can always alternate the use of palm sugar with honey or maple syrup or use less of the amount called for. However, the salty, sweet and sour taste of the dressing is in the balance of those ingredients. I am using locally caught snapper ...
Fabrizio Spanish Crumbed Mackerel with Miso Vinaigrette, and Beans Salad
Where we can, I like to support local produce and use locally sustainable seafood. Do you know the local Spanish mackerel has similar content of Omega 3 fatty acids to that of the salmon? Yet its available locally, mostly wild caught and 3-times cheaper than the salmon. For this dish, the Spanish mackerel pairs so well with the bean salad and miso dressing. Flaxseed is high in Omega 3, fiber and protein! When grounded, its a better alternative to using plain flour. It ...
Epi 3: Part 2 – Flo Beer & Honey Chicken
Clean eating doesn’t have to be boring. In this episode, Flo (Melaya Honey) takes a very ordinary chicken breast, massaged and dressed it to make it attention grabbing! All done with only 6 ingredients and before long, you have breast you want to eat and savour!
A lot of Asian shun away from breast meat thinking its too dry for their liking. But breast is a healthy part of the chicken as it contains little fat. To minimise the meat getting dry and tough - try this recipe with the beer ...

We go to Japan to explore some flavours in this episode. Miso marinated Flank Steaks served with Rainbow Salad and Japanese Soy Sesame dressing.

Easy Flatbreads
This recipe is so easy to whip up, really there's no excuse not to make fresh breads to soak up your curries or whenever you feel like it. I am usually hopeless at making bread but I can ace this. Great recipe for bread-idiots like me. Also known as naan, this bread is a staple on our kitchen table and its a great recipe to get the kids involved to make this together.
Skye, (age 9) knows the recipe by heart now. I am also comforted by the idea that she would not starve when is in ...
Vegetarian Pad Thai Salad
This salad was inspired by the PS Cafe version but mine here is presented like how you would eat the actual noodle Pad Thai in most Thai restaurants :) There are many alternatives to this, but I like the version served using a dressing very similar to the Green Papaya Salad. This salad can be made vegan, vegetarian, paleo or gluten free. I will post a vegetarian version, and refer to my notes
below how to make it to suit your diet preference. You can also add other kinds of ...
