Cauliflower “Fried Rice”

Even though I disagree with creating replacement meals out of weird ingredients, I have to admit that this was actually kind of like eating fried rice. Ok, so not that much like eating fried rice, but if you are desperate for a replacement this might work for you. I made this for lunch today and [...]

Cauliflower & Tomato Soup

With the weather getting cooler it’s a better time than ever for cooking soups. I have mentioned before that I love stew type meals, and that goes for soups to, especially thick soups like this. If you are looking for comfort food that is healthy then this is a great option This was the easiest [...]

Grilled Vegetable Salad

I have been trying to cook some of the vegetable side dishes. I often skip these and for those meals where I am eating at home and have already had my protein for the day I usually just roast some veges. But that gets a little monotonous after a while. This meal was far from [...]

Baby Bok Choy with Garlic & Oyster Sauce

As is often the case with Tony Ferguson recipes the flavours align in such a way as to perfectly complement each other and make something that could have been boring completely wonderful. Bok Choy on its own is not bad, it has a buttery flavour that I quite like, but mix some oyster sauce, garlic [...]

Warm Tempeh Salad

This post is a couple of days late, I have been a bit slack recently I had been planning on cooking kangaroo all week (from Affordable Flavours) but didn’t really feel like it, so I flicked through the cookbooks looking at which recipes I was up to for each chapter (I am cooking my way [...]

Creamy Mushroom & Vegetable Soup

This is one of my most favourite ways to eat vegetables and probably my most favourite way to eat the soups/shake. This recipe is on the TF website here. It is super easy and great if you want a protein-less meal. I have tried it with the mushroom soup (the original), as well as chicken [...]

Roast Vegetables

Once again I had my protein serve for lunch, some days it’s just easier that way. Today in particular I had a team base day thingy where everyone from my spread out team came into head office. This went for half a day so I didn’t get to eat from 7.30am to 2pm, there wasn’t [...]

Garlic & Balsamic Mushrooms

I had lunch with friends today and had a salmon salad (which I really enjoyed) so I needed to have a vegetable only meal for dinner. In keeping with my challenge I turned to the cookbooks, and although this recipe wasn’t in order I tried it anyway. It really is very simple, trim the stems [...]

Roasted Vegetable Salad

I mentioned the other day that I love roast vegetables. They make me feel so much better about eating vegetables and if if they get a little caramalised (in the true sense of the word rather than “burnt”) they are often slightly sweet. This recipe included a couple of vegetables I often don’t use, namely [...]

Cauliflower with Yoghurt Sauce

When I first looked through the Seasonal Flavours cookbook I thought I might have to revise my rules. What I have been doing with the other cookbooks is cooking the recipes in order by chapter, so I have done a few from the beef chapter, some from the chicken chapter etc. With the World of [...]
