Lentil Salad with Basil and Lemon
Its Australia Day, and what is more Australian than lentils….well lots of stuff actually…but as you may be aware, I have been home from a cruise for less than a week, and talk about struggle with being home and getting back into the swing of it all! Can’t even...
Christmas Stollen
I cannot believe it; I have blinked and Christmas 2011 is here! Phew, what a year…can I just recap?

Went to Dubai and worked with George Calombaris, as my alter ego Candy...
Quinoa and Chicken Salad with Orange Balsamic Dressing
Its no secret if you follow me at all that I just love fruit in a salad. I have been a bit busy (and I hope you know why!!) and so haven’t written up a recipe in a week or so. Today was scorching hot in Perth and salad was the only option. Quick,...
Chicken Mango and Noodle Salad
Perth has been having a mini heatwave…of sorts, and now it is all cloudy and threatening, but I do have the airconditioner in full swing. The first air conditioning day for the season in fact…here we go…summer is on its way!
So for a hot day, a quick and easy salad....
Ravioli and Mediterranean Veggie Salad
I love summer, my energy levels increase (watch out!) and the sun just makes me happy. We have had a few sunny days, evocative of what is to come later in the year and I got all inspired with summery food…hope you enjoy, and pull this recipe out on a hot day...
Chorizo, Egg and Potato Salad
What a day I have had! Crio Bru Australia, my new foray into the wonderful world of retail has gone C.R.A.Z.Y. thanks to you dear readers! My partner in crime is on an overseas holiday and left me holding the phone…and it has been insane. I am still trying to get ready...
Kale and Pecorino Salad with Pine needle dressing
This was a little quick lunch last Saturday, which was more manic than usual! SO nutrition was required as I immersed myself in Almond Praline, Almond Paste, Vanilla Almond Crunch, Almond Dacquoise etc etc….Seriously cooking, but not great working...
Asagio and Beef Burgers.
Yes, its the weekend. Back in the day we used to have Saturday Burger Days….and dad was the cook of these burgers…the kids are almost gone, and Saturday night of all nights is the quiet night at ours…but this won’t tax you too much if you want a weekend break, but...

Well here I go again…the fruit in the salad routine! Can’t help it, just adds that piquancy that a salad needs. This salad is quick, to the point and totally great to increase or decrease to suit the numbers you are feeding. Add more spinach, avocado, prawns, peanuts, and/or pineapple to suit.

Always crazy about food since she fed the neighborhood kids that first mud pie, (seasoned with a good dash of vegemite, a childhood Aussie fave!!) she now has a tribe of her own that she happily feeds whenever she can get them to sit down long enough. Her culinary experience ranges from Bangers ‘N Mash in London long ago…(and far far away) to attempts at Chinese banquets for her University ‘roomies’ in the USA to more recent culinary holidays to Singapore and Vietnam and now several years as a food consultant, recipe developer/writer and food eater and dreamer. Obsession can be a wonderful thing!
Ever resourceful and always hungry, and now the proud owner of a Thermomix, she can whip up a delicious storm in minutes, given half a chance. It is on her blogs that she shares her passion for food and the perfect cooking of it!
Professionally she works to bring to two major Australian Appliance companies, the best use of said appliances in the form of recipes. Always up for a personal demonstration, plans are afoot for a cooking tour in 2009, so look out for a Thermomix class near you! She can now live without her microplane for the first time in a cooking lifetime, she still can’t live without her Thermomix and she certainly can’t live without her blog comments…so make her day and leave a note!
