25.01.2022 Upside down Apple & Almond GF Cake is the flavour of the fortnight, more going out to our beautiful customers today with their orders

25.01.2022 Part of todays special catering feast going out today. Balinese & Mexican themed. Happy 50th birthday Stu

25.01.2022 BREAKFAST IDEAS - Toast Toppers! Happy hump day - Day 5 of Toast Toppers and when the teen boy cooks himself up a plateful of mushrooms for breakfast you know exposing him to a wide range of plants has equipped him to feed himself for life Today is air fried roast pumpkin with a rocket cream sauce and & air fried roasted rosemary mushrooms ( addict here) with balsamic glaze and both topped with a sprinkling of our nut Parmesan Note- If you dont have an air-fryer you can always roast off veggies in the oven, slice your pumpkin nice and thin so it cooks quickly and makes your morning a breeze

24.01.2022 BREAKFAST IDEAS - Toast Toppers! Spring mornings call for fresh vibrant breakfasts around our house. Its easy to throw a piece of bread in the toaster and lather it with butter or margarines but its not the best for you. Heres a couple of easy options for you to make at home. Green pea smash with steamed spinach topped with salt & pepper & crumbled BKA Almond Feta AND BKA Spinach Hummus with air-fried (or oven fried) tommy tee & black cherry tomatoes with salt & pepper & BKA Almond Feta crumbled on top. What are you eating for breakfast? #cheflife #breakfast

23.01.2022 LUNCH IDEAS - Growing up in Victoria, soup was eaten 9 months of the year. Living on the GC for 20+ years its not that easy to find soup on a menu. And with tomatoes in abundance right now it’s only natural I feel like roasted tomato soup. Roasting your tomatoes first is so worth it for the extra depth of flavour. And a garden full of herbs meant fresh herb bread was a perfect pairing Recipe in comments.

23.01.2022 EAT FRUIT - You say Rockmelon, I say Canteloupe! It’s the same thing This fruit contains Provitamin A which our bodies convert to Vitamin A, important for vision, immune support and healthy skin. I’ve used rockmelon in this Salad and it was really really satisfying, surprising myself as it’s not in my top 10 of favourite fruits If your brain is telling you no to mixing fruit in a savoury salad, then try switching that mindset over as it will open you up to so many new possibilities Recipe in comments

22.01.2022 LUNCH IDEAS - The other day I made rice paper rolls with extras for school lunchboxes as they kept well overnight in the fridge! I really love the different textures and flavours and colours of these beauties. Filled with a few variations but basically sprouts, bok choy, tomatoes (in some) cucumber, carrot, beetroot, purple cabbage, mint, coriander, some with eggplant (airfried with chilli flakes & salt & pepper) some with marinated tofu (because I’m a tofu addict). With a delicious spicy black bean dipping sauce they’re totally satisfying

22.01.2022 BREAKFAST IDEAS - More Toast Toppers! If youre bored with vegemite on toast, heres some more easy ideas to make at home. Smashed Chickpeas, Kale and Coriander (recipe guideline below in comments) & BKA Pepperjack Cream Cheese topped with watercress fresh from the garden Monday morning bring it on

22.01.2022 Finger food for private events is a very popular catering request and it means we can play with little bits of food Yay or nay for wasabi with yours ? Its a YAY for me

22.01.2022 NEW Braised medium creamy tofu and mushrooms with greens on a bed of brown rice. Its a winner in our house

22.01.2022 Pizzas for the teens for lunch today with BKA Melty Mozzarella and @_themeetco plant based chickn strips! Delicious #themeetco

21.01.2022 Mini Caprese Canaps for the win! Sweet tommy toe tomatoes topped with our housemade macadamia mousse cheese, fresh herbs and half with a balsamic glaze, the other half with a maple drizzle. So fresh and clean and delicious

21.01.2022 LUNCH IDEAS - Pasta Salad was always on the table at family and friends BBQ get togethers growing up. Generally they were loaded with sugary mayonnaise regardless of being homemade or store bought from the supermarket deli. So here’s one with a bit of difference that’s a delicious meal on its own or as a great share salad for guests to enjoy. And it’s a great way to use up leftover pasta when you’ve cooked too much .... am I the only one who forgets how much pasta swells Recipe in comments.

19.01.2022 Feeling very blessed to be able to provide the catering for @e.soulharmony Sound Healing & Meditation event in Currumbin Valley yesterday They started off the day with some of our fresh vibrant juices and delicious energy balls before embarking on their self discovery journey with the beautiful Emily. We then provided an array of wholefood dishes for lunch for the group to enjoy before their afternoon session began. So I thought Id make some mini energy balls for home for that quick snack when the afternoon feels hit. Teen approved of course Emily holds these monthly events at their beautiful property in the Valley, Id strongly suggest you check it out as they fill up quickly Soul Harmony

17.01.2022 CHEF HACK! Invest in an infrared thermometer. Optimal temperature for food safety for heated food is over 70degC. Have you ever taken a tray of lasagne out of the oven and found its cold in the middle, or youre opening the oven door probing the middle of your dish to see if its cooked yet? Its frustrating and every time you open the oven the temperature drops so youre getting uneven cooking. And they double up as a human contactless thermometer too Easy to find online or at your local kitchenware store. I highly recommend it.

16.01.2022 Caramel with a chocolate ganache dessert going out as part of tonights catering to an amazing group of business womens monthly dinner .... these chicks are living life and we love providing the food for their monthly event

16.01.2022 CHEF HACK! When using baking paper to line your trays or cake tins scrunch the baking paper up, smooth out roughly and cut diagonally into each corner. This stops your paper sliding around as much, fits into your tins more easily and helps give a cleaner edge to your cake. #bka #bkaathome #bkavegan #chefhacks

15.01.2022 EAT FRUIT - Getting home from a busy morning I walked in the door hungry! And I wasn’t organized which is when we reach for the empty calories. So I needed something fast. The first thing I saw was my big fresh pineapple sitting on the bench and I knew we had leftover rice from last nights dinner so pineapple fried rice it is! This means I get to add more fruit into my day. And odds and ends of all the bits of vegetables you have to use up in your fridge make the best fried rice in my opinion Recipe in comments

14.01.2022 Yummy banana loaves fresh out of the oven for some of todays orders. You can now order full or half loaves to enjoy at home

14.01.2022 NEW another addition to the menu, Mushroom Wellington, puff pastry filled with mushrooms, herby duxelles, spinach & creamy basil ricotta together with sides of green beans and roasted garlic & rosemary potatoes and a rich gravy I had this for dinner last night teamed with a delicious Sauv Blanc by Small Things Wine perfect

13.01.2022 BREAKFAST IDEAS - Toast Toppers! Day 6 of Toast Toppers and Im officially over toast but it was worth it to give you 12 different toast ideas!! So I thought BLT vegan style with tofu bacon, cooked tomatoes and lettuce (nothing wrong with salad for breakfast) would be great. And a personal favourite, beans on toast - recipe guide in comments So what easy make at home ideas would you like to see next?

12.01.2022 Stuffed tomatoes for the win today, such an easy breakfast, brunch, lunch with a side salad or as a side with dinner. Soooo versatile. Make them up the night before and pop them in the oven for 15-20minutes for a delicious nutritious breakfast. Whats in these ones? A mix of spinach, BKA ricotta, quinoa, chopped roast vegetables, BKA baked macadamia mousse, BKA nut Parmesan. You can put in anything you want really, whatever you have left over in your fridge

12.01.2022 From our garden heres one of my babies, a gorgeous vibrant purple cauliflower Ive always loved purple cauliflower, I think its a little sweeter than its white sister. Its higher in antioxidants as well and did you know It contains about 25% more vitamin A than white cauliflower What are you growing in your garden? #purplecauliflower #antioxidant #veggiegarden #homegrown #chefgarden

11.01.2022 LUNCH IDEAS - I was thinking how I hadn’t had zucchini noodles aka zoodles for a long time and how quick and easy they are. I had an overload of zukes in the house as well as tomatoes and eggplant in the garden so this became my lunch and it was really tasty. Then I ended up making another 6 bowls of it to feed the 5 teens and 1 male adult who all arrived home hungry and looking for food. The boys are still talking about it and asked for the recipe so I’ll post it in the comments below for 1 so multiply for more. Chilli optional. Enjoy!

11.01.2022 Pies on the menu starting this week. Orders close Mondays 7pm for Thursday delivery. First fabulous flavour (Gold star stamp of approval from the teen) Creamy Mushroom, Potato & Onion

11.01.2022 The mulberry tree is crazy full and I’m loving it Mini mulberry & apple pies for the fam

11.01.2022 And thats the last one for today, everyone is loving the gluten free chocolate cake with chocolate ganache!!

10.01.2022 We had the pleasure of meeting Jean-Michel from @themeetco a few weeks ago and have been sampling their chicken & beef products over that time. Its certainly a quality product and satisfies those around us who havent moved to a plant-based lifestyle yet. Pictured is a vegetable, XO beef & mushroom stir fry Ryan whipped up, that was inhaled by the teen and given the all important stamp of approval If youre interested in purchasing any of their products, which are all suitable to freeze, let us know and we can arrange this for you

09.01.2022 BREAKFAST IDEAS - Toast Toppers! Are you over my make at home Toast Toppers yet? Chunky creamed corn (recipe guideline below in comments) & Chunky Guacamole (because I dont like avo smash ) Whats happening on this beautiful Tuesday morning ?

09.01.2022 Happy International Cat Day! Theres nothing more rewarding than rescuing a furbaby and giving them all the love and care they deserve. Heres our 3 rescue fur children Jasper (in the box) Mila (on the blue bed) Zima (the white girl). Through no fault of their own all 3 ended up in need and we are so lucky our paths crossed at the right time. If you have room in your heart and your home for a furbaby please adopt one of many sitting on death row, in shelters or with rescue groups

09.01.2022 I have the view that soup should not just taste amazing but it should be good for you too! So tonights dinner is zucchini brown rice & coriander soup and I happened to have some of our BKA garlic bread in the freezer so that went into the air fryer and came out golden and crunchy

09.01.2022 Of course you can have Mexican for breakfast! I cooked these in the air fryer and they were perfect. BKA Pepperjack cream Cheese, avocado tomato salsa jalapeño BKA Melty Mozzarella, BKA Sour cream, fresh coriander out of the garden and fresh chili courtesy of my good friend Nicky Wood at Wise Healthy Living

08.01.2022 I love warmed hummus and I love creamy mushrooms so the 2 together is a match made in heaven for me. Slather it on freshly cooked flaky roti and youve got a perfect meal, starter or share plate. I may or may not have had this for breakfast

08.01.2022 BREAKFAST IDEAS - More Toast Toppers! Todays easy options for you to make at home. Tofu scramble with fresh spinach & Eggplant Mash with fresh Tommy tomatoes. With the eggplant mash its really easy to roast off some eggplant in the oven the night before and scoop out the flesh, let it cool and add to taste some tahini, maple syrup and miso. Mash all together and taste as you go, you only want a tiny bit of each flavour to start. Trust your palate. Then warm it through in the morning and lather it on toast. Easy like Sunday morning

08.01.2022 NEW Toastie option. If theres enough demand for something we do our best to deliver!! We now have the TST aka our take on the BLT. Melty Mozzarella, grilled tofu bakon, fresh spinach, sliced tomato, garlic aioli on Turkish ready for you to pop under the grill, in your sandwich press or in a frypan. I personally love this combo and both our toastie combos are suitable to freeze ready for the family to grab for an easy delicious meal or snack

07.01.2022 A nutritious breakfast is important for me to start the day right so this morning it was rolled oats which I cook in my organic plant milk with chopped apple. I then drizzle it with a tahini-maple-milk sauce I whisk together and some fresh slices of apple. Some freshly squeezed vitamin C and Im set for the prep day ahead

07.01.2022 We have such an abundance of the plants pictured in our organic vegetable garden wed love to share. If you have a delivery of any of our online meals this week, DM if you want us to include any of this fresh produce as our gift to you. Red Mizuna Lettuce - full of vitamins and antioxidants can be used like rocket in salads, in lettuce mix, on sandwiches, top burgers, any way you would use other lettuces. Rocket lettuce - also known as aragula. Is rich in chlorophyll, amino a...cids and vitamins C, E, B and K and contain beta-carotenes, as well as lutein and zeaxanthin (for eye health). Rocket provides glucosinolates, which help to protect against cancer. Use in salads, salad leaf mix, on sandwiches, top burgers. Flat leaf parsley - a herb rich in Vitamin K. Use in salads, make a tabouli salad, in pestos, in and on pasta, on pizzas, in oils, dried and stored in clean jars for use in cooking. Rosemary - a member of the mint family and is a good source of iron, calcium, and vitamin B-6. Use a little scattered on focaccia bread dough and roast potatoes and other veggies prior to baking. Kaffir Lime Leaves - used in Asian cooking for flavour and aroma, freeze really well.

07.01.2022 This is what Im calling my use all the bits and pieces lunch Freshly picked red Mizuna lined the plate with a big dollop of BKA rocket cream dressing, freshly picked rocket leaves spread with BKA Pepperjack cream cheese and wrapped around roasted mushrooms, roasted curried chickpeas, strips of roast capsicum and a generous sprinkling of a seeded pesto i made for a special order. So full of flavour and well balanced I didnt need to add any other seasoning Dont be afraid to throw things together, some of the best meals are made that way

06.01.2022 CHEF HACK: Peel your fresh ginger by scraping the outside with a spoon. The skin is soft and comes away easily and you have so much less waste than any other method

06.01.2022 Why havent I made chickpea omelette for so long, loaded full of yummy goodness its tastes good and is good for me RECIPE TIP: season your batter well before cooking, I add salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder & nutritional yeast to my mix. PREP HACK: Place the dry ingredients in glass jars in your pantry ready to pour into a bowl and add water!

05.01.2022 Awesome new advertisement by Beyond Meat

04.01.2022 EAT FRUIT - I’ll admit it, I’ve never been a great fruit eater! Give me savoury foods every meal and I’m happy and particularly during winter I’m terrible at eating fruit. So as soon as the warmer weather hits I make a conscious effort to get more fruit in my life. The best way for me is to make it a little bit interesting rather than just picking up a whole fruit and eating it. And by doing this I’ve found I eat so many more types of fruit that I never did before. I liken it to putting gravy on things to make them better, with fruit I put things on them to make them better Recipe in comments.

04.01.2022 The dehydrator is getting a workout today. It’s a great way to ensure your fruit doesn’t go to waste, buy in bulk or when it’s a bargain price and dehydrate for a nutritious snack on the go without the preservatives added by the big companies to extend their shelf life. Many people are allergic to sulphites in commercially dried fruit so check your labels carefully if you’re not dehydrating at home without it

04.01.2022 LUNCH IDEAS - These lettuce cups took 7 minutes from start to finish to make. That’s a definite win for me We cater for a lovely couple who run wellness retreats in the beautiful Currumbin Valley. We made meatless balls as part of the weekend menu and I made some mix for home too and ended up using some of it in these. Great for summer days See recipe in comments

03.01.2022 Benedict for breakfast is a classic so my take on a classic has a creamy umami sauce over freshly steamed broccoli and cauliflower with a side of grilled marinated tofu Try incorporating as many veggies into your day from your first meal!

03.01.2022 Mini Caprese Canapés for the win! Sweet tommy toe tomatoes topped with our housemade macadamia mousse cheese, fresh herbs and half with a balsamic glaze, the other half with a maple drizzle. So fresh and clean and delicious

02.01.2022 Another special birthday order ready to go! Were so lucky we get to share in celebrations for our valued customers in this way

02.01.2022 LUNCH IDEAS - Who said Potato Salad is boring and a side dish There’s 2 schools of thought on salad, one as a side to add to a meal and one as a meal on its own! If you treat every salad you make as a meal on its own you will end up making them big and bold and full of stuff! The humble potato is one of the most versatile foods in history. It can be jazzed up or down. I love it both ways .... potato mash worshipper here Here’s my bits n pieces potato salad from some of the bits I had on hand for lunch today. Recipe in comments.

01.01.2022 LUNCH IDEAS - Its such an amazing day outside how can I not pick some herbs and veg and whip up a simple Thai (not beef) mushroom salad. Took about 40 minutes with marinating time. So fresh and delicious, a tastebud sensation. Recipe in comments. Enjoy! PS. Coriander haters sub Thai basil
