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...
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....
Seeded Quinoa Salad
Okey Dokey, dear reader,
If you haven’t checked in on Cooking with Tenina on Facebook, there has never been a better time than now to join the ever growing band of followers who make my days all the brighter. We are running our first competition, and it is so fun! Click over...
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.

Roasted Fig and Cacciatore Salad
The name of this salad should be more in keeping with the bounty of family members it involved…but in keeping with my pledge to name posts for what they are…no matter how boring, this is, just as named; Roasted Fig with Spicy Cacciatore Sausage Salad.
Another quickie….I...
Watercress, Brocollini and Pomegranate Salad
You know me and fruit in salad…I think my kids have even stopped complaining about fruit showing up in a savoury salad because they are either;
A) resigned to the fact,
B) used to it or
C) enjoy it themselves now.
Colleagues are not so good with it, but...
P8...Eight Flavours Pesto Pasta Salad
Now it is the pasta itself that has eight flavours…and if Adriano can call his amazing one flavoured Vanilla Thriller a V8, then I figure I can call this the P8 as I’m guessing the salad has a whole lot more flavours than eight, (given the pasta has its...
Warm Lamb Salad with Minted Feta Dressing
I’m officially on holidays. Its great, I didn’t go anywhere, the kids are off hiking/camping and I have the house to myself all day…aaah! But the blog never sleeps, and I still have to eat, (eat well!) so this was a great quickie for a nice...
Thai Beef Salad
Sorry, its Friday afternoon at the end of a long week, and so I am not only tired, but silly to go along with it! Thai Beef Salad is one of my favorites and lately I have been on a mission to find a nice one in a restaurant that I could rely on to deliver the taste hit that I crave…no...
Looking over the last few entries on here I realise what a sweet tooth I am, but hey…I can do the other stuff, so check this out! There were no complaints when this showed up at lunch time on Friday. I re-served it completely cold on Saturday without the oohhs and ahhs, so I suggest you serve...
Tenina Hmmn, liking the sound of a licorice all sort jelly…great idea....

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!
