Serve it with homemade garlic bread. Easy Baked Tortellini With Spinach I love to hear these words… ‘can I please have a second’ when I make food for my family. This easy baked tortellini sure got a second helping. My daughter thinks I am superwoman for making my own pasta from scratch. Well, I won’t tell her if you won’t that her mum has been reaching for refrigerated tortellini with different delicious and healthy fillings....
I’m a big fan of beef mince – it’s economical and convenient (no chopping!). And this is a great quick way make turn a packet of beef mince into a complete meal! Ground beef and rice Flavoured rice. Seasoned beef. AND veggies. All made in ONE POT. How handy is that?? This ground beef and rice recipe is a complete meal, with barely any chopping.

What makes Boursin pasta so good Boursin pasta recipe is so simple to make yet it is packed full of delicious flavors. This creamy cheese pasta is perfect for a busy weeknight as it is quick to make and if you also want to eat something meatless but not compromising on taste. You will only need a few ingredients that you may surprisingly have in your pantry already. The flavor of creamy Boursin cheese compliments the sun-dried tomatoes so well....
Coffee and Walnut Fudge didn’t set? Yeah, me too. So unfortunately I had to turn it into coffee and walnut fudge sauce and pour it over a mountain of chocolate cake balls. Disaster. A HAPPY, GOOEY, CHOCOLATELY, NUTTY DISASTER! Sorry, didn’t meant to shout at you there, but it is a dessert worthy of a bit of shouting. I felt I deserved a couple of these after finally joining the gym (I promised I would)....
Ok, I’m finally admitting to myself that Christmas is coming. So far I’ve buried my head in the sand and made no plans, bought no pressies and given the kids the ‘stare’ if I catch them singing Christmas songs or watching Christmas films (is it mean I make them wait until December for that?). Planning Christmas content for Kitchen Sanctuary and freelance work means we’ve already had the Christmas decorations out a few times in the last couple of months....
Why oh why does sugar rule me so. I want it. Chocolate, bread, cake, more chocolate, maybe some jelly tots and then a little more chocolate. If somebody could invent some kind of virtual reality gadget that could make celery and carrot sticks feel like I was eating chocolate and jelly tots I’d be most grateful. So even though I’ve created these healthier energy balls, I couldn’t resist the addition of a little chocolate!...
It’s great for parties because it’s a big batch help-yourself drink – unlike most cocktails which need to be made one by one! Celebration Fruit Punch! I’ve been mocked for naming this a “Celebration” Fruit Punch – but try telling me this doesn’t look bright, cheerful and celebratory!! So much more than just any old fruit punch, right?? 😉 Punch is nothing more than a drink made with a mix of fruit juice....
Leftovers are really good, so I sometimes double the recipe and enjoy the leftovers for several days. When it comes to green veggies and picky eaters, broccoli is not the worst offender. When fresh, it’s fairly mild-flavored. And when lightly steamed or roasted, it is quite delicious. Still, the Picky Eater in our family doesn’t ever eat more than half a cup of it, even when generously buttered. That’s why I adore these broccoli tots....
Chicken rissoles Aussies love a good beef rissole. It’s right up there with other nostalgic Australian comfort meals like curried sausages, bangers and mash, and a good old-fashioned roast with all the trimmings. In case you’re wondering what rissoles are, in Australia (and New Zealand) they are small meat patties that are usually pan-fried. And while we Aussies like to believe they’re exclusively ours (right!?) it turns out that actually there are different forms of rissoles all around the world made with other meats, fish/seafood and vegetables....
This is loaded with veggies and light on the noodles so it’s nice and healthy. I love stir fried noodles like Chow Mein, Beef Broccoli Noodles and Pad See Ew because they’re a complete meal made in one wok – or skillet! Quick Rice Noodles Recipe I literally rummaged through my fridge to make this Chicken Stir Fry with Rice Noodles. Photographed it, ate half, gave the other half to the homeless guy at the dog park....
Today is the day, my book officially goes on sale. I’m excited, terrified and a little bit giddy. I made a little video to tell you a little more about the book: Why a salad book? Well first off, I love a good salad. It has to be a really good salad though. None of that default salad using just flavourless lettuce, tomatoes and cucumber. That’s the most depressing salad in the world....
Serve it with veggies or berries to balance out its richness. It’s wonderful topped with a dollop of sour cream! I love eggs. I especially like them for breakfast, although I also enjoy them for lunch and even for dinner. Even though I like eggs prepared in almost any way one can imagine, I especially enjoy omelets. I really like adding other ingredients - meats, cheeses, and vegetables - to the eggs....

Wagamama’s Firecracker Chicken, Have you tried it? Chances are, if you’re outside of the UK or the Boston area then you probably be haven’t. Which is a sad, sad thing, because this meal is soooo good. I’d love to tell you that I managed to steal the secret formula for this recipe SpongeBob style. But I didn’t. This is my closest estimation of the recipe based on: Tasting the original (many times of course!...
The secret to making them crispy? Salt them to draw water out, then bake them in a hot 425°F oven. I love zucchini, especially those firm in-season zucchini with smooth dark-green skin and firm flesh. It’s no wonder I have several zucchini recipes on this website! They’re all excellent, but this is definitely one of the best. These zucchini chips are so good. It’s one of my favorite side dishes to make when zucchini are in season....

Leftovers are so good that I often make two of them to ensure yummy leftovers for the week. I adore this tasty quiche. It’s crustless, keto, and low carb. It’s VERY easy to make, which makes it perfect for weeknight dinners. And most importantly, it’s delicious! In fact, this crustless broccoli quiche is one of my favorite options for meatless dinners, and it’s also great as a filling lunch. Oh, and leftovers make an excellent breakfast!...
The freshly baked quiche is wonderful, but the leftovers are just as good, and you can enjoy them warm or cold. Crustless quiches are great. I love flaky crusts - who doesn’t! But foregoing the crust enables you to focus on the wonderful flavors of the filling. I especially like this particular quiche. It is gorgeous - so colorful with all the vegetable colors, and I love that it contains so many veggies!...
Did someone say Fish Friday? I’m always trying to get more fish into our diet, and if any fish dish is going to get us around the table after a long hard week, then this is it! I do think cod can have a tendency to be a little bit flavourless, so it really needs some punchy ingredients to make it sing.The amazing flavour combo of garlic, coriander, lime and chilli does just that....
A really quick and simple noodle salad for you today. I was looking for something healthy, crunchy and just a little bit filling to serve alongside some Thai fishcakes, and this salad turned out to the be the perfect answer. Rice noodles and ribbons of crunchy veg are bumped up the taste scale with plenty of toppings (you know I love toppings) and a quick spicy sauce made with peanut butter, chilli sauce, garlic, lime and a few other store-cupboard goodies....
