What do you usually cook on the barbie? Snags? Rissoles? A piece of steak? Occasionally we’ll do a butterflied leg of lamb or I’ll make my own kebabs. I’ve recently stumbled across this Greek marinated chicken recipe though. It’s seriously the easiest thing in the world to make and will be on rotation in our […]
I’ve been making this simple chicken dish for my girls for years but have never thought about sharing the recipe – it’s so simple that it doesn’t really need one. You’ll notice that I don’t put exact amounts of ingredients for the sauce – it’s “a bit of this”, “bit of that” kind of number. […]
This recipe is so good for so many reasons. It’s a great way to use up a leftover barbecue chook. It’s a great meal to make ahead of time to reheat when you have guests coming over. It’s healthy, fast, delicious and simple. Perfect for a weeknight dinner or to have in the fridge for […]
I’m really excited about this recipe. Excited because it’s so easy to make. Excited because it tastes great. Excited because it feeds a crowd. Excited because you can make it ahead of time. I know pasta bakes are pretty daggy but they serve their purpose as an easy family meal. This recipe uses a store-bought […]
I’ve just sat down to my computer for the first time in what feels like forever. I have so many software updates to do – (Hit DELETE, DELETE, DELETE) and if Apple tells me that I have to ‘manage my storage’ one more time I’m going to scream. Too busy have I been making sushi […]
Food blogger, Lo Corcoran of Lo’s Kitchen shares the recipe for her comforting curried chicken pie, highlighting the importance of being neighbourly whilst reminiscing on her childhood. ‘Sharing a fence’ I still remember our neighbours growing up. On one side there was Toula. A warm and bubbly Greek woman who lived there with her husband […]
The thing I love about cooking is that you can cook things depending on your mood. One day you’ll lose yourself in making a trendy Vegan chickpea stew (thanks to Soph for the inspo) and the next – you’ll feel like throwing everything in a pot and chucking it in the oven. Tonight’s mood calls […]
Soph came to visit on the weekend. Best friends for over twenty years, we never learn; it’s always the same thing. Friday night, we get so excited to see each other that one bottle of wine quickly turns in to two and then three and then… well you can see where this is going. And […]

You really won’t believe me until you try it – but there has never been a simpler recipe to cook for a crowd when entertaining. This Chicken Marbella comes from ‘The Ignatian Table cookbook’ – a fabulous book that’s filled with so many good and hearty, tried and tested recipes. My sister in law, Lou […]
We’ve been enjoying ‘the picnic in the paddock’ in Boorowa for as long as I can remember. I always look forward to the end of summer where the weather starts to cool off a bit, happily saying goodbye to the stinking hot days with temps above 40℃. The change of season is a great excuse […]
Thai green chicken curry is one of my all time favourite meals – I make it a lot. I’ve adapted this recipe for the slow cooker. Simple, tasty and comforting, you’d be hard pressed to find a more satisfying meal for a busy weeknight or a lazy weekend at home. Similar to my Thai red […]
Wagga has seen scorching temperatures of above 40℃ over the past week. And I’m forever grateful that we’ve escaped the heat – spending the school holidays at Mum and Dad’s beach house in Culburra (on the NSW south coast). Our days have been spent swimming, building sandcastles, eating ice cream, drinking coffee (before beer o’clock […]
Tired of making the same old things night after night? In a bit of a dinner rut? Then this quick and easy stir fry is for you. Cooked in the same amount of time it takes to steam the rice, if your family is anything like mine – there’ll be none left over. As always, spice […]
I could be wrong (it has happened before) but I reckon everybody loves schnitzel. Apart from non meat eaters obviously, what is there not to like about a delicious piece of crunchy on the outside, succulent on the inside – chicken breast? Even if you don’t call yourself a good cook – if you can […]

There’s nothing complicated or ‘chef-y’ about this recipe. Some may say it’s a bit boring; too 70’s for their liking. I don’t mind though. Some food trends come and go; think zucchini spaghetti, fancy tacos or sweet brioche burger buns (I’m not a massive fan of any of these things). But this apricot chook has lasted the […]

I love it when you’re on a plane and the hostie hands you one of those little packets of Jatz and cheese. Score! It’s so important to get the snack food right. It not only passes the time but is the key to an enjoyable flight. Same goes with a road trip. You simply can’t […]
It was going to be apricot chicken for dinner tonight. Until I remembered that my good friend Lizard has a weird thing about fruit being cooked with meat. Another friend Jules also confessed yesterday that she doesn’t like apricot chicken. “You what? How can anyone not like apricot chicken!?” was my reply. We grew up […]
