Oh Yes, Orange Heaven Cheesecake...
We are not big on Halloween in Australia, and I personally don’t get into ‘spooky’ food, but I have always been big on Pumpkin Pie…something that pretty well fills my kids with suitable Halloween style horror. Vegetables? In dessert? But trust...
Chicken Biryani with Pistachios
From my understanding, Biryani is a recipe that takes all day, (and then some) if done in the traditional manner! It is also a dish cooked with the bone in the meat, which naturally adds flavor as well as nutrition, the variety of spices used is wide and every region/family...
Rawvolutionary Crio Smoothie!
Phew what a week that was. You may have noticed things have gone a little quiet on here, and with good reason! I have been manically getting my book pics done with the irrepressible and amazing photographer Shea Walsh at the lens! And guess what we have all been guzzling...
True Energy Bars
I know you have heard me raving (and raving) all about Crio Bru lately…(if not, you must not be following me too closely!) and now I am using it so much in my recipes that it has become a staple in my pantry! I am amazed at what happens to my appetite when I eat it…so of course,...
Crio Power Balls
Look, I am busy right? Needed chocolate, needed healthy energy and just happened to have some extra Crio Brü lying around (wink)…please get this stuff in your pantry as soon as you can. You won’t be sorry. As for calling this a recipe…bit embarrassing to do so really, so...
Batter up….
Salted Pretzel and Choc Chunk Cookies
Look I have been known to spoon double cream out of the jar at any time of the night or day. I have an American daughter in law who provided me with massive amounts of pretzels, and so those two things are my excuse for this indulgence….not...
Quinoa Porridge
I have one child with gluten intolerances (recently diagnosed) and she loves a morning porridge…so as oats are out, this was a great solution. It fast became a family fave, high in protein, and if you want to speed it up, soak the quinoa overnight. You can then cook it for around 20...
Cherry Upside Down Friand Tart
I was so amazed to walk into my local supermarket and find fresh cherries! It is the coldest winter I have had in Perth and glistening in the light were those favorite of all fruits, gems of round perfection….umm, sorry, getting carried away, but SERIOUSLY…I couldn’t...
Chocolate Cloaked Figs
Chocolate Cloaked Figs…
Look, I’m not going to wax lyrical about what a wonderful recipe this is, but I have to say, I will be making them again. Quick, kind of healthy as far as treats go, and soooo CUTE! It is more of a suggestion, and so easy, I just had to write it...
Serve with Orange Creme Patisserie
Low Fat Upside Down Blueberry Orange Cakes
Now I know that Tenina.com and ‘Low Fat’ are mutually exclusive, but I am on a mission! I am sure if you have delved into the black depths of this site you will have found several recipes with no story and...
Tenina Hmmn, liking the sound of a licorice all sort jelly…great idea....
Lilli Hmmmm, have just been searching for a licorice ice cream after a girlfriend has made ...
Tenina Thanks Megan…(she blushes…feeling a bit porky and not at all like the poster child fo...
Megan Oh T, so glad i tried this stuff, its tasty (i do add a sachel of Natvia) but i notic...
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!
