Quinoa Chia Poppy Crisps

Quinoa Chia Poppy Crackers

I struggle to find nice GF crackers for having with dips or cheese. I’ve long been jealous of the selection of pretty seeded flatbreads and crackers available for the gluten-tolerant but there is no good substitute. Oatcakes can be a bit too heavy and aren’t the prettiest. Back in Australia we used a lot of the […]

Beetroot Hummus

Beetroot Hummus

I have previously pondered the variety of spellings of “Hummus” when I made my Sweet Potato Hummus. So let’s not dwell on that this time. But I’ve just found out that the word Hummus actually translates to “Chickpea”, so really it is an incomplete description regardless of how you spell it.  A bit like calling Babaganoush […]

Bags of fudge

A fudge experiment – White Chocolate Fudge

Who else has been Christmas cooking? There’s been a lot of fudge in my life lately. For someone who had never made fudge before, the whizzy machine has made it a little too easy.

Use as a dip with crackers or carrot sticks, spread on a wrap, use instead of butter on your sandwich, spread some on your […]

Pistachio Rose Bliss Balls

I was at a meeting the other day and my friend Isabel brought along some pears poached in rose water. They were divine. I was hoping she would post the recipe so I could share it here and to my delight I’ve just discovered that she has (you will find it here). Whilst eating more than my fair […]

Guiltless Vanishing Bliss Balls

I’m willing to bet that this photo would have looked a lot better if more than 5 of these had survived the ‘taste test’, but that’s what happens if you don’t whip your phone out fast enough when these little babies are around. *blink* Gone. These are my Date & Coconut Bliss Balls – I’m […]

Three C’s Pizza Base – Oh Em Gee!

I’m so excited. No really, I AM SO EXCITED!! This has discovery has changed my life! Ok, I concede I may be getting a little bit carried away but if you love pizza as much as I do but have to be gluten-free, or you’re just trying to reduce your carbs, give this a go. […]
