A simple, yet delicious working lunch today. With the glorious Autumn sunshine we’re having in Melbourne today (yes, we do sometimes get warm days believe it or not), it felt fitting to eat the last remnants of summer foods. I made a pasta sauce with the last of my homemade passata, garlic, black olives and anchovies, topped with freshly grated Parmesan and the last few bits of my summer basil that is also enjoying an extended season of growth. It feels like a delicious goodbye to sandals, endless daylight and poolside icy poles. I will sure miss it!
Every couple of weeks, my son has a kitchen class at school. I have been lucky enough to volunteer on many occasions for this incredible lesson. These kids have learned how to use proper knives, how to read and interpret recipes and use their own creative thinking to adjust as needed. They have learned maths, and working in a team, and seen the fruits of the fresh produce they have harvested from the garden turn into delicious dishes that they make with their own hands. They have learned how food that you prepare yourself tastes sooo good, especially when shared with friends. They have tried new ingredients and developed their palettes. They have presented the most beautiful dishes - like this green humus and zucchini salad and shakshuka and Israeli salad that they made today. And I feel like the luckiest mum getting to witness and take part in this incredible school and life lesson.
I picked up a huge punnet of portobello mushrooms at the green grocer today for $2 (so cheap!). Tonight I topped them with fresh garlic, rosemary from my garden, a drizzle of EVOO, pesto and my favourite @meredithdairy feta cheese. Then grilled for 10 minutes before devouring.
Dinner tonight thanks to a home meal delivery kit from @atlasmasterclass - tonight was Korean barbecued beef with bulgogi sauce and lettuce cups. This is the second time I have ordered from @charliesatlas restaurant and I am really impressed. The ingredients are high quality and we always have leftovers for the next day. The best part for me though is having my whole family try new cuisines....I mean who would have thought my kids would ever eat something called bulgogi sauce! 🤣
There is something immensely satisfying about pulling out veges that you have grown from teeny weeny seeds. These carrots took sooo long to grow and were pretty small, but the kids and I were super chuffed nonetheless.
Poolside lunch on this stunning Autumn day ☀️ Mexican salad with guacamole, braised corn kernels and grated haloumi cheese.
Food Frontier: Plant-based meat – a healthier choice?
The aim of the study was to compare the nutrition averages of plant-based meat categories to similarly processed, conventional meats, from sausages and burgers to chicken-style pieces and more. The study further explored other health impacts of plant-based meats, from processing to ingredients, as [...]
