Better than Take-Away: Pepper Beef Stirfry
Pepper Beef Stirfry could be in reference to the Capsicum (Bell Peppers) or the generous dose of Black Pepper in this tasty sauce. A quick, fresh and utterly addictive stirfry that is genuinely better than most take-aways when considering cost, convenience and flavour. While it make take a little bit of time to prepare and measure out the ingredients needed for this dish, it does come together very quickly. Considering the time it takes us to drive to our local shop, place an order, wait and then drive home – the timing is generally comparable. The cost and flavour remains unmatched and this has quickly become a staple in our…

Basic Taco Mince
I know Taco mince is a staple in pretty much every household worldwide, so it may at first seem a little redundant to post a recipe for it. However, the basics tend to vary wildly between families and many households rely solely on pre-made sauces or single purpose spice blends.

The main benefit to understanding the components of a spice blend though is that you can…

Butternut Pumpkin Cannelloni
Pumpkin Cannelloni is a beloved staple in our house. This isn’t your normal spinach and ricotta cannelloni. Set atop a bed of beef mince and onions, these filled noodle tubes are baked in a deliciously rich pumpkin sauce. It’s a classic date night dish and makes plenty of leftovers that are great for weeknight dinners or prepped lunches as well.

The ricotta & spinach filled pasta tubes can be baked in Tomato Passata for a more traditional take on cannelloni. This recipe is packed with veggies and generously…

Creamy Mushroom & Beef Stroganoff
A few years back I stumbled upon this traditional russian variation by Julia Frey of Vikalinka. It’s simple, creamy and yet still light. Boosted with the rich flavours of mustard and marsala – it’s absolutely delicious. I’ve adjusted the recipe to make it a little more macro friendly. I’ve also included the serving of rice in our nutritional information panel. While it doesn’t have anywhere near as much sauce as the original, it’s rich and juicy with bold intense flavours and still plenty of creaminess.
