Thai Red Curry Coconut Chicken Breasts
These chicken breasts are tender and bursting with flavour. The Thai red curry paste gives an aromatic, vibrant kick, while the coconut cream tones down the spice and keeps the chicken succulent and tender. Cooking the chicken breasts in the oven allows them to cook through without getting burnt and rubbery on the outside.
Almond Milk
Stop buying almond milk from the store and make your own instead. Have you ever read the label on store-bought almond milk? The ingredient list likely contains way more than just water and almonds (hello emulsifiers, sweeteners, oils, binding agents, flavourants, etc.). So if you think you’re picking a healthy milk alternative, you are sadly mistaken.
Ultimate Summer Zucchini
These are scored, pan-fried until golden, and then set in the oven to cook through. These come out so tender and so flavourful with just a few simple ingredients. A must-try for a summer side dish.
Almond Vanilla Croissants
Buttery, flaky croissants filled with a gooey almond vanilla center. These are so simple to make and are a great way to use stale croissants. Once they bake, they will be even more delicious than when they were fresh, plain croissants.
Asian Cucumber Pepper Salad
This comes together in minutes and makes such a delicious summer side salad. The miso ginger sauce makes the perfect dressing and soaks into the veg when left to marinade. It’s crunchy, salty, and refreshing.
Olive Oil Cake Topped With Mascarpone and Berries
There’s something about baking with olive oil. It leaves the cake with a rich, moist crumb and a touch of bitterness. This olive oil taste goes so perfectly with the sweet berries and mascarpone cream. If you have never tried an olive oil cake before, I would highly suggest trying this one.
Lemon Charred Asparagus
This is perfect for a refreshing and delicious side dish. Asparagus is one of my favourite veg and this is such a simple way to prepare them. The light charring compliments them beautifully and the lemon gives it such a vibrant, zesty flavour.
Blueberry Cheesecake Brioche Buns
These golden, pillowy soft brioche buns are filled with cheesecake centers and topped with blueberries. I served these at my birthday party a year ago, and people still ask me for the recipe. It’s the perfect summer bake for a brunch or coffee date.
Pickled Carrots
Throw this together for a refreshing and delicious side salad or garnish. It is way easier than you think and comes together in just a few minutes. It’s a great way to use up carrots and will last in the fridge for 3-4 weeks (if you manage to not gobble them up before then!).
Lemon Garlic Leg of Lamb with Greek Potatoes
The ultimate Sunday roast- think of juicy, tender lamb that falls off the bone, and the best lemony Greek potatoes. It is so full of flavour and really simple to make. The hardest part about this recipe is finding a pan to fit your leg of lamb!
Bagels From Scratch
Skip buying bagels from the store (which are packed with preservatives and additives) and make them at home instead. They are easy to make, super delicious, and are perfect for your next brunch.
Creamy Mushroom & Bacon Pasta
I think this pasta is what made my husband fall in love with me. It has all of his favourites- mushrooms, bacon, and a cream base. This is the ultimate comfort dish and you won’t believe how much flavour is in here. It is always a crowd-pleaser and easy to make!
Dutch Apple Pie
After living in the Netherlands for 7 years and trying multiple ‘best-rated’ apple pie spots, I am confident to say that this comes up pretty high on the apple pie winner list. The crust is flakey, the apples are perfectly sweet, and you get a spiced caramel-like center between the fruit. Perfection!
Meatballs with Lemon Garlic Yogurt Sauce
Packed with flavour and a great option for a weeknight dinner. This goes perfectly with my pea, beet & rocket salad. The lemon garlic yogurt sauce is so creamy and ties the whole dish together.
Roasted Strawberry Cheesecake
I made this for my birthday, and it was an absolute hit! The sweet burst of strawberries paired with the creamy ricotta cheesecake, it is perfect for a summer dessert.
Beef Bone Broth
Bone broth is so nourishing and is a great way to start your morning, sipping on a warm cup of broth while soaking in some morning sun. It’s much simpler to make than you think and is full of flavour and collagen.
Zucchini Feta Crustless Quiche
A great brunch dish for your next get-together. The saltiness of the feta pairs so well with the creaminess of the eggs, and it is simple to put together. It is always a crowd-pleaser.
Easy Seeded Bread
If you’ve ever been intimidated by baking bread, this recipe is for you. It is packed with healthy seeds, is so easy to make, and comes out delicious every time. The outside is crunchy, and the inside is pillowy soft.
Pea, Beet & Rocket Salad
A fresh and crunchy salad to pair with your dinner for a pop of colour on your plate. The sweetness of the beets contrasts perfectly with the acidity of the balsamic vinegar.
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Crunchy on the edges, chewy in the middle, this cookie is the ultimate treat. Make sure to use good-quality chocolate instead of baking chocolate (it makes a huge difference!).
