25.01.2022 Some nights like last night my meal prepping is en point, others like tonight it's a total disaster.... . After school I put the tuna morney from the freezer in the oven an hour or so later I checked it only to find it was still frozen on the inside, so between dealing with a sick baby and a hungry 6 year old I had to find food fast. So I grabbed the next pre prepared meal from the freezer (fried rice) and whacked it in the microwave. As I'm dishing it up to the girls I r...ealised my portioning when I made it was way off and there wasn't enough for the three of us! So I fed the girls and had a couple of mouthfuls then got on with the night routines. Being on my own again tonight and having a sick bub to deal with also meant that I ended up eating the now cooked tuna morney at 8pm hiding in my bedroom so I didn't wake the sick the baby I just spent an hour getting to sleep with this fur ball staring me down! Mum fail! . . . #foodprep #foodblog #blog #foodblogger #easypleasyfood #meal #melbournemums #honestmotherhood #mumfail #fail #soloparenting #sickbaby See more

25.01.2022 We had a kid free house last night so it was lazy tapas for dinner in front of the TV (we never have TV on during dinner and always sit at the table!) I made little garlic toasts and served with dip and bruchetta topping (tomato, basil, parmesan, olive oil), olives, kransky, bolognese aranchini, Mac & cheese balls and cheeseburger spring rolls! These last three were from @woolworths_au and I have to say I didn't know how they would be but I was very pleasantly surprised! They were actuslly delicious, a good price and so convenient. Will be for sure using these again for a party or something! We then snuck out for a cheeky dessert at @maxbrenneraus cause we had no kids and totally could!

25.01.2022 Alert: New kid favourite! We've always loved @vegechips especially Belle for her recess snack. Then we found these new @vegechips twists and she loves them even more! And so does mum, made with lentils I know she's getting a little extra goodness in her 'chippies' (mum and dad might sneak a few two when we are packing the lunch, I call it the lunch box tax ) I also prefer to buy the large pack and pack them into our @sinchies reusable snack pouches and #REDcycle the packet to save the plastic waste . . . #kidfriendlyfood #schoollunch #lunchbox #lunchboxideas #vegan #glutenfree #kidfavourite #REDcycle #plasticfree #sinchies #reuasable #mumsofinsta #lentils #notsponsered #productrecommendation

25.01.2022 So I'm still sick but over having soup like the last few days. I wanted something quick and easy for dinner so decided make these little tart things... Amazingly delicious and will deffinitely be added to repertoire for entertaining or brunch. Cause let's face it even though I passed these off as dinner with a side salad tonight they are more suited to a day time theme see stories for the details . . . .... #tart #easypleasyfood #easydinner #thekitchen #kidfriendlyfood #makeyourown #foodblog #pastry #recipeinspo #recipe #delicious #savourytart #fingerfood #vegetarian #italian See more

20.01.2022 The famous baked feta pasta! I'm sure like me you have seen this pasta being done by everyone, so I thought it was time I gave it a go! I used Danish feta, cherry tomatoes, garlic, red capsicum and pumpkin. Bake in the oven (took longer than i thought!), cook pasta and stir in spinach leaving a small amount of pasta water, add pasta to pan, stir, top with fresh basil and enjoy!

18.01.2022 We are using our own homegrown pumpkins 3 ways tonight! Roasting some of the butternut for our roast chicken for dinner, boiling some for the little lady to pretend to eat (most ends up on her clothes!) and using the rest of the butternut and the Kent to make the big kids favourite pumpkin soup ready for the weekend after she has her tonsilectomy (poor kid has no idea what's coming to her!..... She's currently very excited for presents and ice cream!!) still 2 Kent's on the bush too! pumpkins pumpkins everywhere!

16.01.2022 Hit save on this one, it will be worth it I promise! This week I chose a few recipes from the @woolworths_au fresh mag. Tonight we had their easy Satay chicken tonight, I cooked my own rice though and added a few more veggies! It was delicious, both kids went back for seconds and I even got the veggies hating toddler to eat some veggies by covering in the Satay sauce! Oh I used penang curry paste as that's what I had in the freezer and left out the sugar! Swipe for recipe!

16.01.2022 Because I've been experimenting alot with ice cream, I've had alot of left over egg whites. What to do with all these egg whites? Macarons of course! I've never made them before but I think my first attempt was not bad, I even got the little foot thing (I think that's what it's called ) however my almond meal was a little too course (need to crack out mums thermomix next time!) and I think I undercooked them slightly. I guess I'll just have to keep practising I've got... another high tea booked in so hopefully I can perfect these over the next few months and they can go on the menu! . . . . #hightea #menuplanning #foodprep #easypleasyfood #foodblog #food #macarons #practicemakesperfect #eggs #baking #icecream #leftovers #discoverunder1k #thekitchen #fancy #firstattempt See more

15.01.2022 Two tonned pesto penne, super charged with veggies and seeds! My little lady lead this one, she found the idea in an old cook book so I taught her how to make pesto from scratch and she took charge for dinner! She was super proud of her cooking and we enjoyed every bite thoroughly. It was delish! Will post the recipe soon!

15.01.2022 Exciting Announcement! . I am so excited to introduce and unofficially launch The High Tea Benefit project! (@thehighteabenefit) This is something I've been thinking about and working on behind the scenes (around my mummy duties ) for a while now. I've always had a love of tea and high teas and now as a mother I've grown a deeper understanding of the importance of giveing back and doing good in this world. And so the simple concept of hosting High Tea events to raise mo...ney to donate to charities and organisations doing good in the world was born. And here I am, in the early stages of ground work to build this concept towards my first event and official launch of The High Tea Benefit! . Thankyou to everyone who has already given their ideas, encouragement, support and help to get me this far . Like any new project the support of others is invaluable so I would love any support I can get in this great big social world, so feel free to follow along with this journey, share with your friends, family and followers and help me get this thing off and running. Stay tuned as I release more details of my first event! . . If you would like more information or would like to get involved or come on board as a sponsor please DM me or email [email protected] . . #thehighteabenefit #highteaforgood #hightea #fundraiser #doinggood #bosslady #mumboss #charity #tea #newbusiness #discoverunder1k #followme See more

12.01.2022 Carrot, Apple and Pear muffins with no added sugar! Yes please . . . When the little person asks for muffins on a Saturday morning you just have to oblige! I found this recipe on the @healthylittlefoodies website and adapted it to suit what I had in the house (no bananas so used pear, blueberry and prune puree instead ) and they turned out beautifully! Belle has eaten through 2 already!... . . Made with @woolworths_au macro organic coconut oil and spelt flour, almond meal, eggs, milk, apple, carrot, pears, blueberries, prune juice and cinnamon! . . .

11.01.2022 My supercharged green salad! It's hard to decide which was the hero ingredient on this plate! The lamb is organic farm fresh lamb from our lambs born and bread on our family farm, it's unlike any lamb you have ever tasted! The salad is a mix of spinach, rocket, green beans avocado, grilled zucchini and corn. I then supercharged it with quinoa, hemp seeds, sunflower kernels & pepitas. I served the lamb and salad with a lemon, sumac yoghurt sauce! Yum yum yum!

10.01.2022 Enjoying the sun with lunch on the deck today!

09.01.2022 Turning leftovers into lunch! We hate food waste in our house, like we do everything we can to not waste a thing! So when we had left over roast beef, aside from roast beef sandwiches (yummo) I used the left over meat, veggies and even gravy to make some yummy pies in my @kmartaus pie maker! I admit the filling sightly resembles something you might find in a can with a picture of a dog on it but it tasted amazing and I learnt next time to cut it less cuboid

08.01.2022 Single best ice cream I've ever made! Made from scratch with 85% dark lindt chocolate This one's going straight to the Ice Creamery menu! Are you drooling? . . This is for dessert tomorrow for the kids birthday, but we just had to sample it tonight to make sure we weren't given her sludge.

06.01.2022 I had a bunch of veggies in the fridge that needed using up so I roasted them added them to left over bolongnese sauce added some fresh spinach and added all this to some three coloured spiral pasta topped with cheese and BAM! We've got dinner for tomorrow, a super quick veggie packed make ahead pasta bake! . . Ps. I'm getting craftier and better at cooking with my handicap! Did most of this on my own with some pot lifting and finer chopping help from the man of the house! .... . . #foodie #pastabake #fastapasta #foodblog #yum #easydinner #makeahead #kidfriendlycooking #quickdinner #easypleasyfood See more

05.01.2022 Last weeks man birthday meal! Bangers and mash with loads of onion and minimal veg I can assure you my plate did not look like this. I had more veg and no onion! But it was hubbys birthday so I made him one of his faves! Simple but delicious!

04.01.2022 Tonight I made a pie! A chicken pie, which if you knew me you would be shocked cause I hate chicken pie any way the husband loves them so I thought I'd give it a go. I gave it a Thai spin and used crispy flakey filo pastry and I gotta say I did not hate it! Better yet the 2 kiddos and adult man LOVED it, Annabelle even exclaimed it was the best thing I've ever made! I mean it was nice but I don't want to be having it all the time so I also made my famous lasagna for tomorro...w's dinner to remind her of what her ultimate fave meal is mwhahaha . Ps.

04.01.2022 Fun school holiday tapas dinner for the kids! We had so much fun with our lazy tapas dinner sans kids last week we thought we would do another more suited to the kids! This is part one, I made a bruchetta mix with garlic, herbs and tomato, garlic toasts, kransky, antipasto and dip! Stay tuned for part 2!

01.01.2022 On nights like tonight I am so super thankful that I put in that little bit extra effort to be prepared with getting dinners premade! We got home late, I'm solo parenting tonight, the baby was over due for a feed so that delayed dinner making, the other child was acting like I haven't fed her in years, I have a full dishwasher plus dishes in the sink and 3 loads of washing on the kitchen table.... But thanks to some forward thinking it was feeding time at the zoo in under 15 ...minutes!! Now to tackle the clean up of pasta (that wasn't so well thought out haha) and the bath and bed routines before I get to crawl into bed! . . . . . #foodblog #easypleasyfood #mealprep #easydinner #weeknightmeals #pasta #babyledweaning #kidfriendlyfood #feedingmyfamily #feedingtimeatthezoo #messy See more

01.01.2022 Celebrated little belles birthday with family this weekend. It felt like an ice cream cake kinda party so we jazzed up a store bought rainbow ice cream cake with some unicorn sprinkles and her L.O.L dolls (her request!) she thought it was the bees knees and I was happy cause I had zero time or energy to make one this week! . She's recovered well from her surgery and will he back at school this week so we are planning a belated party with her school friends (a house full of... 11 girls and 1 boy! Wish me luck!) and the request has been put in for another L.O.L cake, this one real cake with lots of lol decorations!! I've made 3 of her last 5 cakes and they seem to get more extravagant and stressful each year! I'll keep you posted how this one turns out!!! . . . . #cake #icecreamcake #LOLsurprise #LOLsurprisecake #birthday #turning6 #baking #discoverunder100k #foodblog #blog #kidsbirthdaycake #cakeinspiration #cakehack See more
