Pantry problems? Try using glass jars to store your dry goods. Which, in a week dominated by Gen-Z owning Millennials for our very millennial traits, it seems a little risky. I mean, what could be more millennial than talking about using glass jars in your pantry? But here I am. This was a plan I’ve…

10 Must-Try Weekend Dinners
For me, weekend dinners can go one of two ways. It’s either something quick and comforting because you’re tired and in desperate need of a beverage. OR they’re slow and soothing, the process and result. So, that’s what you’re going to get. Comforting meals that you can go fast or take slow. Food that eats…

Chickpea Goo Chocolate Mousse
Yup, you read that one right. This chocolate mousse is made from the liquid drained from a can of chickpeas. It’s called aquafaba, you can totally google it. I did. A friend had asked me if I’d heard of chickpea liquid being whipped for vegan desserts like meringues or chocolate mousse, a bit surprised by the…

Berry Coconut Chia Cups; breakfast or dessert?
Who doesn’t love dessert/breakfast foods? I’m pretty sure that’s how doughnuts, pastries and such things started. So these Berry Coconut Chia Cups are a perfect, really filling, alternative to all that refined sugar. I’ve had to find a way to be better at mornings. Too often I would be well into mid-morning and realise that…

Rough cut kale coleslaw
From packed lunches to bring a plate BBQs, this rough cut kale coleslaw is as good looking as it is delicious. By using the multiple cabbages and mixed kale leaves, you get a colourful, crunchy dish. Add your favourite whole egg mayonnaise with a dash of mustard, and you’re good to go. I use this…
